Michelle Willison

Michelle was diagnosed with cancer in December 2023 and began treatment the following month. From the start, she knew she wanted to do everything possible to preserve her hair. While she couldn’t control the diagnosis, she could control how she faced it. For Michelle, looking like herself was an important part of maintaining a sense of normalcy and strength throughout treatment.

Cold capping wasn’t easy—nothing about cancer is—but she knew she would never regret trying. However, she would absolutely regret not trying. Despite the challenges, she embraced the process with determination and resilience.

While cancer is undeniably difficult, Michelle found an unexpected silver lining in her journey. She was deeply moved by the support of her incredible care team, family, and friends. Through it all, she discovered a renewed sense of strength and a powerful affirmation: she is capable of overcoming even the toughest obstacles.
