I am a recent patient of 4 days in the local hospital. Just had my follow-up and their best guess of what was wrong, was that I was borderline UTI. They couldn't be sure. But I was very sick. My son AND my POA were there daily for me. At some point in the first 48 hrs, someone took it upon themselves to cut 15 inches off my hair, then braid it in a strange way to boot. I saw it for the first time when I arrived back home. ONLY I, MY FRIENDS AND MY FAMILY CAN KNOW WHAT MY HAIR MEANS TO ME OR ANY FEMALE IN MY FAMILY. Hair and caring for it and wearing it was a bond between me and my granddaughter. It's a huge thing in our family. We are crushed. They cut my hair up to just below the shoulder. I look in the mirror and I look at the years lost, the interaction with my girl over it gone. It's a life altering big deal for me. It's the one area of my existence just could not change. Yet it did, FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER. My hair was clean and exceptionally well kept. Also, no mention in any NOTES about it being cut. Please, take a woman's mental and emotional health into your care equally along with the physical. They absolutely go hand in hand. How would you like a pair of scissors to be taken to your own hair? Thank you for hearing me out. God bless you and special work you do.
