I loved the fancy hair but it just never feels like me when it is straight. Love the cut a lot! Went to the Northview garage sale, home to make breakfast sandwiches, napped, hairs did, going out w a friend. Nice! Doing meds differently and thankful for no day 5 heartburn pain this far. So grateful!!!
See how lovely and pinkish my face and chest are? That's a side effect of the chemo, it adds a nice glow I think... like sun kissed. Balances out the über pale of other parts of days. [smile] Sadly, my belly and legs are gonna have to wait to summer. I had already declared this the year of the bikini pre-surgery. A wise woman told me one of her big regrets was not wearing a bikini later/ longer in life... more summers. I decided to follow her advice and just do it. Well, now the shark bite might just distract from any other non modelesque bits. Win! Come on summer!!!
Grateful for silver linings, one of which is how family and friends are gathering around us in prayer and with offers of support. Cancer is a lot of hard things. It is already proving to be a lot of connecting with loved ones and strengthening of relationships and that is so, so good.
