Bald in the Land of Big Hair

Joni Rodgers lives in Texas where big hair is a Godgiven right. But at thirty-two, Joni was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and lost her hair to chemotherapy. With the same amazing ability to laugh at life, Joni now recounts her story -- a deeply affecting tale of industrial-strength drugs, healing herbs, love, sex, prayer, kids, career and the search for a wig that won't make her look like Betty Rubble.

First sentence: Sunlight off, I discovered the best way to handle the heat of a Houston summer: go to Montana.
