In  August 2017,  I presented this praying hands prayer shawl to Dr. Aisha Baron for caring for breast cancer patients. She is one of the top African  American Plastic  Surgeons in Atlanta. She performs breast reconstruction because she is a survivor.

Dr. Baron was diagnosed with Stage 4 Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   Like many of her breast reconstruction patients, she knows what it's like to have the power and control over your life taken from you.

​Dr. Baron is an ASPS member and board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon practicing at Breast Body Beauty Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery in the metro Atlanta area.

​Dr. Baron was also on the nationwide hit reality television show "Atlanta Plastic" on Lifetime to share her talents as a plastic surgeon with the country.

Here is the thank you note  from The Reverend  Melvin L. Tate:
 I received the prayer shawl and it is my favorite color blue. Thank you very much. Never thought I'd be a recipient in need of such care as a cancer patient but He meant it for my good. All things do work together for good. I never would have made it without the love of God and the loving kindness and tender mercies of the angels ministering to me via this prayer shawl.
I love y'all. It's healing and helpful in times like these.  May God bless your hands and hearts exceedingly and abundantly with His favor and grace. It is well with my soul.
