My husband had Lymphoma a few years back and also lost his hair due to chemo. Our creative daughter painted a large smiley face on it, along with other things. A smooth head makes a perfect canvas when you get tired of wearing hats. Hey, maybe you could start a new fashion trend. Stay brave, encouraged and know we love you with or without hair.

Glad you are preparing for your chemo - I know everyone gives you a zillion suggestions - my family member who went through VERY aggressive chemo and radiation found that strong green tea with honey and lemon helped his nausea and the doctor said it was good for raising blood oxygen levels too. Wish some of us were close enough to brew that tea, tie your pretty scarves on (love the idea of scarves with BANGS) and make a nice snack when you are needing a nibble. Bless you, sister in Christ - you are keeping your eyes upon the only one who matters - Our Daily Bread had a wonderful two line poem today - Only one life, ’twill soon be past / Only what’s done for Christ will last.<BR/>Today your blog blessed all us who read it - that is done for Christ.<BR/>Will check in with you - stay the course good and faithful servant - we never know what surprises He has for us.LindaSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01684545110832413808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093404210768657592.post-89225744270990638512008-08-27T01:12:00.000-04:002008-08-27T01:12:00.000-04:00Hi my Sistah(((Hugz)))) Your post was so heartfelt...Hi my Sistah<BR/>(((Hugz)))) Your post was so heartfelt, you will be amazed at the inner strength that you possess.
