Had a pretty good day in terms of symptoms and meds and all the medical stuff. Nothing too exciting to report there really (stay away nausea, my mouth feels like Elmer's glue, keep trying to eat/drink/pee/poop/other basic life functions).
Today's big news is in the Lifestyle and Fashion Department. My hair has not started falling out yet, but it seems likely that will begin over the next week. Since my mom and girls are going to the beach for a bit, I wanted to deal with the Hair Issue before they left.
Hunter has cut my hair since I was in college, probably? Definitely did my wedding hair, so we've been together 15-20+ years now. He agreed to come to the hospital after his last client and do a big giant chop chop ahead of the inevitable hair loss. I thought it would be good for the girls to get to see it. So, we had a hair party!
I know, enough with the narrative. You're here for the pics.

ReplyDeleteI love how you are proactively attacking and keeping in front of this process - for yourself and your family - every step of the way. Keep charging! God bless.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to have your girls with you while your hair was cut so you could talk through the upcoming changes. You look fantastic with that short cut! Striking. And when it’s gone, you will look just as beautiful since it radiates from within. 💕 Thank you for taking us on this journey with you.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! You need not worry about hair with that adorable face!
ReplyDeleteNot only does it look fantastic, you may really get to like it. Easy-breezy.
ReplyDeleteI think the short hair is sassy and very fashionable!!

ReplyDeleteChrissy, I’ve got some really cute Chemo hats just waiting for someone to borrow them! I’ve also got lots of scarves, and can show you ways to tie them. The thought of hair loss was scary to me but when it happened it wasn’t so bad. I kind of felt empowered! Instead of thinking “ why me” I thought “why not me “. “God has giving me this adventure for a reason, and I’m going to crush it! I know you will! You’ve got this! Let me know if you want a new head wardrobe!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Laura!

Your positivity throughout this journey to date, has been a huge encouragement to Robert, your girls, Sweet Mama, and all of us who are with you every step of the way!

ReplyDeleteRuth just told me the other day how she wished Annie K was still here so she could paint your head after your hair fell out. I assured Ruth you would probably have gone for it ❤️. Love you friend - Katy
ReplyDeletePersonally I think it looks great!!! You have a smile that just lights up everything!!! ❤️❤️❤️. Ellen and Gene
ReplyDeleteYou are rocking the new do!
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous with that haircut! It's good to know that as you start to grow it back, you will look good with it short! I know we are coming up on summer, so you likely won't want anything super warm, though I hear that cancer patients often have cold heads, but I am on board for knitting whatever kind (and color) of hat you would like. I've got an enormous cabinet full of very lightweight and soft yarn in any color or combo you could possibly want, so please just let me know. Beanie, beret, or something fun and funky, and color - I'm ready!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!! ❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing!

You look “sassy” girl! And, yes, your eyes are now prominent. I love it! Praying for you, girl!!! Lucy Davis
