The nonprofit spa Face the Fight is helping cancer patients feel confident in their skin by offering free services like waxing, facials and sound healing.“Your skin's an organ and it's very important to nourish it when you're going through such an aggressive type of treatment like chemo and radiation,' said Terie Tutts, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2006. Tutts underwent a lumpectomy, then chemotherapy, radiation and drug therapy for four-and-a-half years.

'Being able to know how to properly respond when they're talking about things they're going through, or feeling the way they're feeling and knowing how to adjust your language when speaking to them,' Edmiston said.Now, the nonprofit is serving about ten clients per week, and it's a cause close to home for Edmiston, whose mother and both grandmothers passed away from cancer.
