Hi Laurie,
Your hair seems be growing quickly. I finished A/C in Dec. and started Taxol & Herceptin in Jan. After A/C I could see very thin fuzz??? My last Taxol was March 7. I now have a little more fuzz, and it is gray ((I was a dark blonde before chemo). It is really thin on the top and sides and there seems to be more in back. Let me know if any products you are using helps. I am hoping to have hair by the summer. I will never make fun of comb overs again.

You're adorable with or without hair!
Donna
