' There is nothing, Lady Galadriel', said Gimli, bowing low and stammering. 'Nothing, unless it might be - unless it is permitted to ask, nay, to name a single strand of your hair, which surpasses the gold of the earth as the stars surpass the gems of the mine. I do not ask for such a gift. But you commanded me to name my desire'.
I looked after a baby that had brain cancer and watched as all his hair fell out. He had one eyelash that hung on for all 6 months of chemo. Just as they gave him the all clear, the last the eyelash fell out. Then we had the joy of being able to watch all his hair grow back.
I hope you get to experience watching it grow back as well.

Oncology nurse of 8 years here, we always called those survivor hairs. Your mother is a beautiful woman and may her battle be victorious.
