went a little crazy
So after the test showed stable disease and it was decided to continue on Navelbine and herceptin for a few more weeks I had my hair done. I missed being in the salon a lot. I hadn't had it done in almost 2 years-pretty much cause I didn't have any. I went...PLATINUM with some chunks of DARK brown and it's pretty fun. I've never done anything that nutty before, but I figure it is time. I still have a few more months in my 30's and the 5th graders thought it was "cool". What more validation do I need?
I just hope that whatever decisions are necessary in the future that I get to keep it for a while. I know it is silly, but I feel better and healthier if I at least LOOK like a normal-ish person. It does a lot for my optimism-anyone else?
I'm wondering who would win the 'number of times been bald' contest? I have been 3 times.
