Menopause typically (but not always) occurs in women in midlife, during their late 40s or early 50s, and signals the end of the fertile phase of a woman’s life. The transition from reproductive to non-reproductive is the result of a major reduction in female hormonal production by the ovaries. This transition is normally not sudden or abrupt, tends to occur over a period of years, and is a natural consequence of aging. However, for some women, the accompanying signs and effects that can occur during the menopause transition years can significantly disrupt their daily activities and their sense of well-being. In addition, women who have some sort of functional disorder affecting the reproductive system (ie endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome, cancer of the reproductive organs) can go into menopause at a younger age than the normal timeframe; the functional disorders often significantly speed up the menopausal process and create more significant health problems, both physical <b>…</b>

Diane Faxon was diagnosed with breast cancer in mid-February of this year. She wanted to dye her hair pink to celebrate the completion of her radiation therapy and enjoy her new look before starting chemotherapy. Due to a very tight budget, Diane’s daughter, Melissa Brooks, reached out to local hair stylists to see if anyone would consider donating some of their time and services to help off-set the cost. Within moments, Lindsey Grant at Modesty Hair Studio replied that she would be happy to do it for free. Wanting to shine the spotlight on Lindsey’s generosity, Melissa Brooks contacted KUT. "I just wanted to bring her into the spotlight for her act of kindness," said Melissa. "In times such as these, every little thing helps to keep us going and stay positive for this long fight. I am so touched by Lindsey’s selflessness." Diane is currently undergoing chemotherapy. We at KUT were delighted to be a part of this "Moment of Kindness" here in Austin, and want to wish Diane all the best.
