As far as the top of my head, I am a walking talking Chia Pet. Cha cha cha Chia. Every morning the kids run in to rub my teeny tiny noggin' and squeal about how much more it has grown. If you click on this picture below and enlarge it to around 1000%, then get your magnifying glass and look closely at the area close to Angelica's head rest. Do you see the fuzz?
YAHOOOOOOOOO!!!! With a little more nutrition and time I think I will soon really start to look like my old friend again.
Radiation is going fine. It's a whipping but just like everything else it will be over soon....33 more treatments. I had chemo on Tuesday. It went fine too.
A couple funny things have happened lately that I wanted to share. Laying on the table Tuesday (as machines whirled around me sending photon, electron, proton, neutron, or ion beams to change my DNA and cause hypoxia to any remain microscopic cancer cells left in my chest, arm pit and sternum) the technician put on her music....loud. I work with her each day now and know now that this is her routine. But this was on my first day. The song that came on was The Bee Gees belting out Stayin' Alive. "Ah ah ah ah stay' alive, stayin' alive." Oh my gosh, it was hard to lay still...I was cracking up. I told the tech that she has impeccable taste in songs. Not sure she knew why I was laughing.
The other funny thing is that I am getting pummeled with sales calls and e-mails from this laser hair removal company. I know I am feeling better because now it really makes me laugh. If they only knew how much I was NOT a good prospect for them! Maybe I should just sign up to reward them for sticking with me. lol

p.s. I have loads of photos to share. I will post them soon.

I see it, I see it!! I really do! Your eyebrows, too! Good show! This is where the edgy, artsy, spikey look comes in. You'll need cutting edge specs and some cool platform shoes to match. Love the stayin alive story. Hilarious. I hope this last phase of treatment isn't too tortuous for you. It won't be long now . . . . Love you!! --Janice.
Mimi,
No, the very large man is not thingle. He'th married. He altho hath a lithp. In his interview with the Fire Dept, he said, and I quote, "I'm not the sharpethest tool in the shed, but I can lift the shed."
And he often has bright ideas. He presents them with his finger in the air and he says, and I quote, "wouldn't it be eathier to cut down the tree, then put the fire out?"
Glad you're doing well.

Maureen...I see your eyebrows and your hair! It looks great! I can't wait to see what it looks like as it gets longer. I'm thrilled for you! You are "more than a woman, more than a woman to me"...in staying with the BeeGees theme!!
Much Love,
Janet
I do see it!!! This is very cool - you must be sooo excited...thinking of you.

Look at that 5 o'clock shadow! Before you know it, your head is going to be fully covered and you're gonna wonder "when the heck did that happen"!?!

As I read your post, I was thinking of the "More than a woman" song. Funny that Janet had that same song in her head.
You look fabulous. Remember Nioxin shampoo, not sure if it really helps, but mine seemed to grow much more quickly when I used it. Also head massages.....they stimulate the blood. It is amazing just how much better you will feel with eyebrows. We definately take those little things for granted. They frame our faces and without them it is so weird.
Love to you.
Barbara
Girl, if I could be half as witty as you!
You look fabulous!
Beautiful! I'm glad that your hair has decided to return. :) You'll be through the rest of this before you know it!
