Going, Going, Gone!







Before I begin info on Photos: The two right pictures were taken by Lila. Left pic. of me taken by Beto--my new "hair"!
As I mentioned in the Top 10...we know the meds. are working because the tumor is shrinking! The Dr. was very pleased last week with the progress we are making. We are going to adjust a few meds so I will not feel so achy next chemo round.
It has been a good week. My hair was rapidly falling and was a little stressful watching it fall out. So yesterday I decided to go for the new "look" and had it shaved off completely. My friend, Wendy , met me at the salon and assured me it will be ok. And it was. I feel better, my head has no surprises...just white! oh well. I can now show off my new "doos": bald, hats and scarves and stylish wig!
Tomorrow, Monday I have another 30 minute round of meds...and on the 16th we go in for Round 3..
We will continue to try and eat healthy, stay hydrated and celebrate each day as it comes. xoxoxo.

  1. Dear Jeanne, We love your new do. Tres Chic. Have fun with lots of scarves, hats, colors and of course laughs. We also treasured your top ten lists. The listening to nature was particualrly appropriate as Spring is almost here. The days are getting warmer and we are hearing new chirps, sounds, and outdoor songs as we go for nature walks. Love and Hugs to Beto and Lila too! Xoxox K & F. B, M & K.

  7. Jeanne, Your new look is fab!! I really think your positive attitude has as much to do with your healing as the meds - remember Farmor/Mormor !! We´re all thinking about you!
