Worden-Fielder made the most of a bad experience, using her head(pun intended) to creatively support the candidate of her choice:

In August, doctors discovered cancer on one of the tonsils she'd had removed. Hoping to save her hair, she didn't shower for two weeks after her chemotherapy started.
It didn't work.  We both bawled when my hair fell out, she said, gesturing to her friend, Brenda Schoenherr-Thelen, an artist. Then I said, No, we're going to have fun with this.  Whipping out some brushes and acrylic paint, Schoenherr-Thelen covered the dome of Worden-Fiedler's head in blue, then copied the Hillary striped logo.

Apparently, she has been personally affected with autism:

A mother of five who is divorcing her husband, Worden-Fielder has four adopted children and one is foster daughter she hopes to adopt. Two have autism and one has fetal-alcohol syndrome.

Mary likes Hillary's positions on a number of issues:

Worden-Fiedler was impressed with Sen. Hillary Clinton's speech today in Sioux City on autism research, expanding AmeriCorps, and tax credits for college.

She's not a usual at the Democratic caucus:

Taking a deep breath, Worden-Fiedler said after the event, I'm jumping the tracks.

A registered Republican who has always voted straight-ticket Republican in the past, Worden-Fiedler said she now intends to caucus for Clinton.

Hillary is lucky to find such spirited support in Iowa.
