Wig Closet Receives New Donations From American Cancer Society

The closet that supplies wigs for cancer survivors has shifted from relying on community donations to receiving many newly made wigs from the American Cancer Society.

Mario's Closet offers wigs and aid to cancer patients in LMH Health system

The clinic operates 10 am to 2 pm weekdays when volunteers are available and can be reached at 785 505 3144. Lauren Cobb notes hours depend on volunteers though the gift shop is open. The center provides wigs, mastectomy bras, prostheses, Psi Bands, journals, and grief gifts, plus assistance from the Mario's Closet Assistance Fund and LMH Health Cancer Center. Volunteers, many survivors, provide emotional support and one on one connections.

Growing attention as states push eating disorder laws

Crisis survivor Crisis Watford joins a national push as nearly 30 million Americans face lifetime risk of eating disorders. Proposals seek to curb social media exposure for youth, ban weight loss pills for minors, and add prevention to school curricula amid access shortages and rising cases after pandemic lockdowns. Colorado, New York, and Texas consider mental health education and BMI restrictions, with advocates arguing early recognition aids treatment.
