A common side effect of the chemo I am taking is hair loss. On Wednesday morning in the shower, my hair started coming out in chunks, right about when I was told it would. Jeff got out his razor and shaved my head for me.
One of the teachers at our school surprised me today when he shaved his head in solidarity. (I wasn’t wearing my glasses because I was bawling of course!) Thank you, Will.
The area around my port started getting red so I had to make a trip to urgent care this afternoon. They did blood work, gave me an IV antibiotic, and sent me home with a prescription antibiotic. My mood? 😠 I’m over it with all of the fighting infections and viruses. But haha, no I’m not! Because I just got started.
In summary, I’m bald. I have the best support system. And one day at a time, right? Here is hoping all is well for round 2 of chemo on Monday.
