On March 3rd of this year my life was forever changed. I walked into Vidant children's hospital with a box full of headbands to deliver. I walked from room to room and met multiple patients. As I was about to leave I met the beautiful princess, Georgia, she was about to undergo her chemotherapy treatment. At her young age, she has experienced more than any child should have to. With her soft smile and bright eyes, Georgia can light up any room that she walks in. I visit Georgia at her house and we enjoy singing along to Frozen(she is quite the singer!), and eating pizza. Every time I arrive at their house, Georgia is so excited to show me what headband she is sporting that day, she has quite the collection of headbands from HOH. Georgia possesses strength that I strive for and although she lost her beautiful brown curls in her battle, she always has a positive mindset. I have learned so much from her. Georgia's bright eyes, sweet smile, and soft voice have completely stolen my heart. I would not have been able to experience any of this without Headbands of Hope, I am forever thankful to be a part of this organization.
