Hi RJ,
Cancer Fairy Godmother was recently contacted by a company that might be able to help with the wig:
They are called Hulda’s Lace Wigs and their website is http://www.huldaslacewigs.com/
I am going to do a write up of their site, but I have been pretty busy. They seem to be very nice people, and I must say that my first response to them was very rude, I must find some way to make an amends.
Sorry for the delay on this, Nak

This time she has had chemo and radiation surgery and now 6 more months of chemo of which she was told this type wouldn’t cause her hair to fall out, which was wrong. Her hair is falling out, I want to get something to help her feel a lil better she doesn’t have the will, she’s ready to give up.
