What about Winter hats for the Chemo People?

The frigid cold of winter,  the driving sleet storms, and the  penetrating fog all pose the toughest seasonal test for our chemo friends.  Wool itchs so much.  The loss of your hair leaves one with little protection from the cold.  What to do?  Just like in clothing for winter wear, layering is the answer.  Layer #1 is your basic acrylic or polyester  "do-rag"for comfort closest to the skin. Keep that wool away. Layer #2 is a cotton close fitting brimless cap.  Finally your outer-wear hat can be wool or fur to cut out the cold and wet elements. Then when you go back indoors you already have a head cover in place when you take off that heavy outer shell.   Be prepared.  We'll talk about winter styles next time. 

Chemo Fun hats

Nobody thinks chemo is a walk in the park or a fun time.  But, seriously there is a need for warm winter hats for our chemo friends.  We can add a touch of fun and humor to what is a trying time for our patients.  The Hat Co has fun fleece lined winter hats in animal shapes like bunnies, owls, and pandas.  They all tie under the chin and are comfortable on the forehead.  Check them out in our Novelty and Costume section.  They are serious headwear for young and not so old who want a little fun in this difficult time.  They make an inexpensive gift for those with a real need.  Over the next month we will add seals, wolves, polar bears, and more to the lineup.  Keep checking.
