Ok, so see my new haircut? That was just last week and today I'm going to get the rest completely shaved off. It hasn't been very fun, but I haven't freaked out or anything. It's hair, right? Of course, they don't tell you is how freakin' painful it is! I've never heard anything about it actually hurting. Really, it makes sense though, I mean my scalp hasn't seen the light of day...ever! So even my pillowcase hurts. I'm pretty sure it'll be fine once the hair is completely gone and my head can "toughen up" a little. Other than that, I've been hanging in there. Trying to do a few things, like take Matthew for a haircut or do a little housecleaning (fun!). If I overdo it, which is sooo me, then I pay for it the next day or two and am usually in bed. This time around, I haven't had a bad migraine yet, so that's is FANTASTIC!!! They do have me on pretty heavy meds to avoid it, but hey, whatever works at this point, I'm game! :) Still nauseous most of the time, but dealing with it better too.
Oh, the best news ever is that my best friend from Seattle came down to see me! She flew in yesterday and is here thru Saturday. We haven't seen each other since her wedding in Vegas almost 2 years ago. We are just hanging out and taking it easy. Luckily, she's been down here several times, so the whole site seeing thing isn't necessary! :)
Thanks to everyone who is sending me good wishes, comments and most of all prayers! I appreciate each and every one of you! It might not seem like a big deal to leave a comment for me, but I can't tell you how much it brightens my day, so please...keep them coming!!!
Love & Blessings,
Lisa

It is soooooo good to hear from you. You worried me this time as I hadn't heard anything not to mention friends on facebook were concerned as well. Yes! it is only hair, no worries. You are beautiful anyway you look at you. So glad to hear that the meds are working for your nausea, I can appreciate that as you know. Can't wait to visit with you when you are ready.
Love you lots!!!!!

Hello My Little Lisa,
Have been down but not out--Still Pray all will go as well for you as my BFF that as of today has survived breast cancer 6 years. She has moved to Washington State. When I read your blog it brings back so many memories of being with her, the loss of hair and serching all over Los Angles for toppers and hair.
You have many many people reading your blog but they just may not leave a comment. Anyway I have rambled on--I keep in touch with Darla and she keeps me up to date with you.
Love you very much and do hope I can see you in May. God Bless and Keep You
Love & Hugs

Lisa! I never would have thought about the scalp hurting, but it makes perfect sense. Yuck. I do kinda like you with short hair, and, hey Britney made the shaved head thing work. So can you! Praying for you daily and for those cute kids of yours. xoxo.
Hey you, just been thinking of you and wondering how you have been doing? Have you had another round already since this last post? Miss you!
