I was on AOL when i saw that Mattel had made a special barbie for a little girl who i believe had cancer and now there is a petition to get it mass produced for the public. How awesome is that?! The article also brings up other hairloss issues like alopecia. Hopefully it will be made and will get others to realize that Bald can and is beautiful and help little girls to cope and gain self esteem. If someone knows how to get the link it would be great. YAY!

How exciting?!Its definitely aimed at chemo patients, but anything that makes "bald" more normal is great in my book! http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/45977017#45977017

I applaude Mattel, BRAVO! For comming up with Bald Barbie.
I plan to both write & call them regarding this, to thank them.
The more of us they hear from the better, when one is enindated with thank yous & more please, it's wee bit difficult to say no. They may only produce x amount per year but they will be made & who knows a new collectors item per chance.
Way to go Mattel :)
