Hair

My hair is falling out.  My scalp is hurting, kind of like a bad sunburn.  I look like a patch work quilt with alternating hairless areas stuck between the sploches of hair that are 1/4 inch long.  It is quite an interesting look. I was just getting used to having a crew cut and now this. Let’s just say I am glad that I have such a great wig!  It is alarming to look down and see eyelashes and eyebrows all over the front of my shirt.  I knew it was coming and overall it hasn’t really shaken me but it is kind of sad to see it actually happen in front of my eyes.  I am glad that I had it shaved early because it gave me a chance to get used to it being super short before I became shiny.  I choose see it as part of the process of healing.  When I look at it like that I can get through it…with a smile and a laugh.
