Today is the 4th of July. It is also the day that my hair is shedding badly. I cried in the shower and after. I know I said I'm not that attached to my hair and I don't think it's the hair as much as now I'll look sick. As of this moment I look normal. No one would know that I am sick. Once my hair is gone, they will know. I will have awkward stares. Today while holding my almost 3 month old I mentioned to him that I was shedding. This sweet girl said, "hormones". Sadly I had to respond with, " no I have cancer and the chemo is making it fall out". The look was so sad. I get it. It's sad I do. I hate this some days. I give those same looks to people. It's odd being on the receiving end.
<sigh> today America celebrates its freedom and I contemplate when I should shave my head. I'm hoping I can make it to the weekend before I have to do it :-( at least for today I still have it!
At least I got to see one of my besties and her kids before it fell out
And got to celebrate the 4th with my fave guys!
