Eyelash and Eyebrow Please give 2cents worth

[Jean]

Thank you everyone for your kind words and wisdom! I thought at first that
something freaky was going on since I lost the lashes and brows so late after
treatment - nice to know I am normal like the rest of you.

Bev your right about applying the make-up, I have gotten to be a pro with the eye brow shadow the few hairs I have left I brush up and then fill out with the
soft powder - now the lashes are something else. Funny I did not mind loosing
the hair on my head - but the lashes WOW I feel naked. I purchased natural
looking false eye-lashes and it is working out fine. And yes MJO it is weid that
the darn hair above the lip just hangs on!

Special good wishes to Mary Jo on finishing chemo next week -
Chelee nice to see you back on the boards!

Blessings to All!

Jean,

My chemo ended LAST Nov. 30, 2005 NOT this Nov. 30. Thankfully, it's been almost 1 year since I've finished. I do have lots of aches and pains though and not liking that but I don't think it's cancer. It's sporadic and in varying places of lower back - left and right hip at different times. I think it's just the effects of all my body has been through BUT I do have eyelashes. LOL.

Take care.

Mary Jo

I just finished chemo two weeks ago, however, I am still on herceptin for 52 weeks. Since reading this post, I am now prepared for my eyelashes and eyebrows to fall out. They have thinned, but not completely fallen out. Thanks for the preparation!
