I could run my fingers through my hair and clumps would fall out. I looked like a fluffy dandelion ready to have all of its seeds blown away.
Time to make the strike. The oncology department has a special tool they use for occasions like this...hair clippers!
I had prepared for this moment at least physically by purchasing a wig in advance. However, I wasn't prepared emotionally.
Hello Denise! I found your blog on internet and you really make me think a lot. I admire the strength and will that you have.
ReplyDeleteI am a 20-years old girl from Argentina, South America, and I wish that you can (and I really think you will) go through this and continue with your life.
Please be strong!
A big hug from Argentina.

Hi Virginia! Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm really encouraged that you find it interesting and thought provoking. Have you had an experience with cancer? Thanks for the hug and warm wishes from Argentina!

Hey sis--Good thing you have a very pretty head, huh. You know that runs in the family. Good genes, I guess. You are beautiful with or without hair. Love and miss you tons. Sharon
ReplyDeleteGreat choice on the wig. It's a really good styule on you. Just think of the time you are going to save doing your hair! No more pin curls and clips. :) We love you and miss you.
