Radiation went well. I was talking to the girls there about how tender my scalp is feeling and they said that is normal to feel as I start to lose the hair. Tomorrow I am going wig shopping. Something I thought I would never be saying at 27 or be looking forward too. It was pretty freaky today in the shower and see how much hair I am losing. It is definitely easier to think "Oh, it is just hair it will grow back". But actually seeing it fall out is something I don't know how to prepare for. Maybe have Jon shave my head...then we'd be twins. I guess I just need to handle it the same as I have been handling cancer...One day at a time.
On the plus side, Courtney & Luckey came over with the Wii tonight...I'm pretty sure the Lee's kicked butt! ;) It was nice to get to play some games to get my mind off everything and still work on my balance. By this time of the evening, my legs were pretty exhausted. Plus, we managed to get an ice cream cake out of it. And thank you Courtney for helping get some more organization to the house!
Hopefully tomorrow we have success shopping! Thank you again for all your kind and positive thoughts and prayers. Keep them coming!
