Today I went looking at wigs to prepare for the inevitable hair loss. Since I haven't had any other effects from the chemo, I figure this is going to be what I suffer the most. Yesterday I visited Hearth Place, the cancer support centre and picked up pre-tied scarf to be ready.
I narrowed wig selection down to 5. Colour is not an issue, I will be going with an auburn. Style will be feathered, with a layered look. I will post pictures as soon as I make my final choice. I will be taking Mandy with me for the final selection, along with Kyle again.
So far, still no side effects that I can identify. Today I am having a terrible pain in my side, right side back. It feels like a muscle spasm. At times, I can barely stand up straight. If it is no better tomorrow, I will the call the cancer center just to rule anything out.
I thought I was dong pretty good with things until I went into Heath Place. As soon as I spoke to someone I broke down. They are pretty good in there and very helpful.

This is my story - the when, the where, and whatnot. I will try to be honest, to share and to inspire. And I hope to make you laugh, because laughter can cure all, and that is why you love me.
