Son donates hair to his mom who has been battling a recurrent brain tumor for nearly 20 years

What was intended to be a joke ended up being one of the greatest gifts a mother could ever have from her son.

An Arizona guy grew out his hair for over three years in order to give it to his mother, who lost her hair due to radiation treatment.

Matt Shaha declared, “It makes perfect sense.” “In the first place, she gave me the hair.”

Melanie Shaha battled a benign brain tumor for many years.

She remarked, “I had surgery twice, in 2003 and 2006, for a pituitary tumor that was recurrent and benign brain tumor.”

After two successful surgeries to remove it, she was prescribed radiation in 2017 when it reappeared.

“I inquired with my doctor, ‘Will my hair fall out?’” and they replied, “No.”

She lost her hair three months later.

A TWO-DAY WEEK…

She remarked today, “When you don’t have hair, you stand out like a sore thumb and kind people can say things that make you cry.” “Looking sick bothers me more than actually being sick.” At the store, I’d want to fit in rather than stand out.

Shortly after Melanie started experiencing hair loss, her son, who is 27 years old, made a joke one day about growing his hair out and getting a wig for her.

I began working with Matt Shaha a year ago, and he is one of the most giving people I have ever met. Among the original…

Even though Melanie’s son was receiving such a nice offer, she didn’t want to burden him with it.

But Matt had a different perspective. For the next 2.5 years, he let his hair grow out. He went to his mother’s house with a few coworkers when his hair was at the right length, and they chopped it off.

Melanie remarked, “We were so excited that we started crying when they started cutting.”

He even paid the $2,000 to have the wig created when the time came.

The mother and son team discovered a wigmaker who created a lighter and more comfortable wig by hand-stitting the hair. Melanie had the wig trimmed and styled as soon as it arrived.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen my mom look like that since she lost it, so it’s been about four years,” Matt remarked upon seeing her in it.

Melanie, smitten with her new appearance, conceded that surpassing her son’s present would be difficult. “It definitely fills your heart.”

Melanie is very happy! Look at her expression! Matt is even grinning broadly. For them both and their families, I adore this.

Shocking Truth Behind Riley Strain’s Death Finally Unveiled!

Riley Strain’s cause of death has been confirmed by an autopsy report obtained by TMZ.

According to the report, the 22-year-old college student died from drowning and alcohol poisoning. His death was ruled an accident.

This news comes three months after Strain’s mother shared her son’s final text message.

Strain, a senior at the University of Missouri, went missing in early March during a trip to downtown Nashville with his fraternity brothers.

The night he disappeared, Strain was asked to leave Luke’s 32 Bridge Food + Drink. Although his friends didn’t see him again after he left the bar, surveillance cameras, including a police officer’s body camera, spotted him several times before he vanished.

One of Strain’s friends called the police the next day to report him missing. Authorities started searching for him, but it wasn’t until March 22, two weeks after Strain was last seen, that they received a report of a body in the Cumberland River.

Officials confirmed the body was Riley Strain. He was found eight miles from where he was last seen.

The Tennessee Chief Medical Examiner’s report showed that Riley Strain had Delta 9 (a component of marijuana) in his system and his blood alcohol level was .228.

The autopsy also noted that there were no significant signs of injury.

When I first heard about Riley Strain, I hoped so much that he would be found alive. It’s so tragic that his life ended this way. Every day, I continue to pray for his family.
