The first time I went through Chemo, I didn't lose my hair. I shaved it beforehand and then learned that my chemo cocktail of Oxaliplatin and 5FU didn't usually rob people of their hair. Well, this time I started to notice a bit more hair in the shower. Then when I blew dry my hair, it started to fly around the room. I went to a barber and had it shaved down. It continued to fall out in weird patches. I looked silly. I went back to the barber and had it shaved down more. It continued to fall out like crazy and I had weird bald spots all over my head. My brother in law shaved me bald today. Feels great!!!!!!!! I look weird, but hey it's who I am now. Fuck hats. Fuck bandannas. Fuck wigs. I'm bald. So what.
The past few weeks have been tough. Chemo made me ill and then the past two weeks, they didn't give me chemo because of my low white cell blood counts. Frustrating. I want to keep the show on the road! Let's get this done. But I've had great docs and nurses taking care of me. I'm strangely happy and optimistic. It's due a lot to the fantastic support of my Facebook friends and Twitter followers. Thanks. You all mean a lot to me!!!
