The inevitable

Well… it’s time…

My hair has started falling off… …

I thought it wouldn’t be a big deal. I know the hair will grow back. But as I stood in the shower, pulling chunks and chunks of hair out, it was indeed quite creepy. It isn’t a good feeling at all, though it could be funny if I choose to think about it that way. I’m glad I cut my hair short before chemo started, or else it would be even messier.

For now, hair tends to fall off only when it’s wet. So, I think I still look ‘normal’, just have thinner hair. But I know the time to shave my head is drawing near.

Jed, if you’re reading this, please have your clippers ready. I’ll need your service real soon.
