No hair, no worries

Hair loss is a part of the package when taking chemo. Even though you know it's coming it has to be hard. My mom expected it to happen after the 2nd round, according to the doctors.

Saturday October 20th, 4 days before round 2 of chemo, it started coming out.

By the handful.

In the bathroom, alone, pulling out clumps of hair and not feeling a thing. What does one do?

My mom says, "shave it off"!!

And so we did.

After a relaxing day spent with her friend, Sharon, sitting on the beach, window shopping in downtown Fernandina and having dinner, we got the clippers out!

And why not have fun with it while you're at it? Mama can rock a Mohawk!

The end result was a perfect bald head. I assured my mom that she looked beautiful as always and she was lucky she didn't have a lumpy head.

Hats, wigs, scarves or the baldness in all it's glory. Nothing will cover up the beauty that is my mother.

This is her story......
