So I promised new pictures when I had more hair gone. I was assuming that since I lost 3/4 of my hair in round one of chemo that the rest would come out in round two. So far, the remaining quarter (or is it an eighth) is staying strong....
I might post again if (when) ALL the hair goes - but this is entertaining because that remaining bit is slowly growing so now I have fuzz-head. Or, as Cam titles it for his own head "Frightened Family Hair".
I knew from the literature that one of the side effects of chemo is 'mouth sores' - but I never envisioned that it would be THE most uncomfortable side effect I would experience (at least so far). Last time I only got one painful canker sore. This time I have three. Ouch! At least it slows down my eating. Maybe that's why chemo patients lose weight - it's too painful to eat!

Who am I kidding - it takes more than that to curb my eating habits....
With or without the wigs you are beautiful!!!! My god all the people I have seen going through chemo look very drug out but you my dear look awesome. I am sure it is because you have such a great attitude and all the positive thooughts going your way. Please remember that we used to sell a very good product for canker sore etc.
ReplyDelete# 1101 the balm!!! Maybe you can get some relief with it, that is if you have some LOL..
Keep up the fight and we will be thinking of you lots.
