Guest NowakowDA Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Well! I'm standing in the kitchen looking at my hair lying in the garbage can. How I got to this point has to do with a promise I made my mother. Several weeks ago, when she found out she would having WBR and she would loose her hair, I made her a promise. Ya wanna guess what ole big mouth said. That's right! I told her that when her hair started falling out, I'd shave my head. Well! Guess what happened today! As we were comming home Mom started to run her fingers through her hair. The rest, as they say is history and so is my hair. I look like Curly from the three stooges, except not as handsome. I look like one third of a pawn shop sign. A bowling ball without the holes. Now, I look ridiculous in my Napoleon uniform. The hat doesn't fit anymore. Oh well! Here goes. Slowly I turn. Step by step................... Hey Moe! Whatsa matta kid? I'm tryn ta think but nutins happin. Woo Woo Woo, Woo Woo, Woo Woo Woo Woo.

glo Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 You always make me laugh. You know God only made a few perfect heads. The rest he covered up with hair! Both you and your mom will be able to use that line. The Napoleon hat is so big nobody will know whether you have hair or not. Just keep the hat on.

Don Wood Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Don, what a loving gesture for your mom! I would have done the same for Lucie except i had none to shave! You're a good son. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimblanchard Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 I paused to try to guess what your post could possibly be - didn't guess. YES we need a picture of you now. And I also second that other emotion - you are such a good and loving son. Bless you. I offered to shave my head when hubby lost his hair but he really really didn't want me to do that. Grin. I did try to make up for it - when he couldn't eat, I tried to eat enough for both of us ... bad move that was. Margaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimblanchard Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 I did the same thing when Becky went in for the second set of chemo and we thought she would lose her hair after it growing back. But then she didn't lose it the second time. So I was bald and she had a full set of curly hair. And I too looked like a clown with the head shaved. But it is all back with a vengeance.

Fay A. Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Having been bald, here's a bit of practical advice: Invest in sunscreen. Very important. That's a very supportive thing to do, Don. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
