Synopsis

Hair Everywhere is the story of one family and how they cope with curing the incurable disease, cancer. It is a tale which balances itself along the female line of grandmother--mother-daughter, revealing their strengths and weaknesses in times of trouble. It is also a story about how roles within a family can change when things become challenging, due to sickness or death, allowing some to grow and others to fade. Ultimately, this is a book about life; full of humor and absurdity as well as sadness, and set against the everyday background of incidents and casual meetings.
