Denise, I'm jealous. The grey in my temples is horrible. My onc didn't really say why I shouldn't dye it but the nurses told me since there are so many metals in my body from the chemo I couldn't be sure what color my hair may turn out. Sounds like you were fine. I go back next week and will ask again.

Also, I didn't work for the past few months. I work in a Casino and was in a position dealing with customers and participating at big events. I didn't want to be around all those people, didn't want to get sick. Decided to take some time for me for a change. Get myself well. That is more important right now. Take your time and get well if you are able.

I saw that you went to UofP for your surgery. I was close by, I went to Jeff. We are practically neighbors. I was born in Penn. but grew up just outside in NJ. Down the shore now.

I wish you the best with rad. I hope you deal with it well, I really had no problem with it. I didn't start to blister until the last 6 or so treatments and it wasn't too bad. I have seen much worse so I am very thankful mine went so well.

Please take care and let us know how it goes!
