Oh yay, kind of a trick as I'm wearing nothing on my head. You may have heard but we're having this little heat wave around here. And I didn't need to leave the house today so I stayed uncovered.
Anyway, I also wanted to show you my bald head because I don't know if you can tell but I have a little bit of hair left. I kind of look a little like a fuzzball actually. But there is some hair. It's hanging on. I feel like it's telling the cancer f**k you ... you can't take all of us.
I'm also lucky because I still have eyebrows and eyelashes. Also, my leg hair seems to be growing back from when I last shaved, albeit slowly. But ha ha ha, cancer didn't take it all. And some days that feels pretty darn good.
I would definitely call that a victory!
ReplyDeleteAnd you are smiling and that makes my night! Try to stay cool!
ReplyDeleteThat's right, FU cancer! I think you look amazing! Your strength is so inspiring.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Kelly
Great smile! Your hair looks much like mine did - never did completely lose every single hair. And my eyelashes/eyebrows hung in there until I finished adriamycin/cytoxan, then when I started taxol and my hair started growing back, my lashes/brows fell out. Was so annoying. Love the WIWOMH series!
ReplyDeleteAmy, I have one A/C cycle left! Then time for taxol. But at least now if my eyebrows/eyelashes fall out I won't freak out durin git! =)
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you Becca and Kelly =)
I SOOOOOO told you that you were going to be such a cute bald chick! Ok...with some fuzz...but still CUTE! I <3 you so much!! You are truly incredible! xo
ReplyDeleteYou look great--I appreciate you sharing!
ReplyDeleteBut really, you'd think the least the chemo could do for you is to relieve you of leg-shaving duties for a bit. I mean, come on. There's got to be some bright point :).
I love that you're smiling, and if it wasn't 1:20 a.m. and the kids weren't asleep, I would have shouted 'woohoo'!
ReplyDeleteEveryday, just for you, I will say FU Cancer. I just love you that much and well yeah I do like to drop an occasional F bomb, it's so liberating.
ReplyDeleteWow! FU Cancer, indeed. I came by via Rita and I think I'll stay a while, if that's okay with you!
