Happy New Year to everyone! There isn’t much of an update other than I’m eating every chance and every thing I can to try to gain some weight back before my next cycle. I’m doing pretty well at it so far. Last I checked I was up to 183 lbs with a goal of 185 lbs at least before next Wednesday. I should be able to achieve my goal and more. Otherwise I’m feeling pretty good being active right now.
The hair update is that there is still no sign of it falling out yet. If there are any signs I’ll let everyone know, but it is hanging in there so far. It won’t be long and I’ll have to trim my beard and shave. I’m still hoping that it does fall out before my radiation/chemo phase starts in February. Not having a beard will sure help out with the expected face rash that they’ve prepared me for.
I have to give credit to Laurie for the picture post of me. It is definitely from before all this started because I was about 50lbs heavier then. I’m sure she’ll be posting more recent pictures at some point to show how skinny I’ve gotten and I’m sure there will be a skin head shot in there when/if it happens.
I am sorry to hear of you having cancer. Leslie told me, after I had commented on a pic she had of you~ I was wondering what had happened to ya. I will follow the progress and keep you and Laurie ( tell her I said HEY! ) in my thoughts and prayers.
