I spent an hour this morning lying awake in my bed, playing with my hair because I can. :)

My hair isn't long enough for Locks of Love so what I'm going to do is have my hair stylist put about 10-15 little pony tails in my hair and clip them at the point closest to my head. I'm going to keep the pony tails so I can feel my own hair whenever I want...it's a comfort thing for me. My stylist will shave the rest off. I'm planning on doing this after the first chemo treatment. They say it starts to come out about 2 weeks after treatment (with the 2 drug combo that I will be getting)....so....it won't be long.

Pete just walked in the door with the mail. Two packages from the American Cancer Society. They sent me 3 wigs and 3 hats that are really soft and vary in thickness.

*big breath*

This is harder than I thought.
