Gone Today Hair Tomorrow

In anticipation of being done with treatment I have been checking the blogs about hair regrowth.  Like everything else that deals with cancer, it is all over the board.  Some people their hair begins to grow within weeks, others are 6 months out and still have just some stubble.  I don't have terribly fast growing hair so I really just figure after 6 to 8 weeks I will have a 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch which will at least be a covering on my head.  The bigger question may be what color and texture.   I really have no preference as to color - just having hair will be a pleasure. 

So less than 24 hours after my 3rd treatment and I am still okay.  I was tired yesterday and just watched a movie and Y & R episodes I had taped from earlier in the week.  This morning I am up early and doing some housework, dish washer, laundry, and going to go out in the hot tub when Joe gets up.  I cleared that with the research nurse and she said she knew of no reason not to as long as I use common sense and I always do.  ND plays at 2:30 p.m. and I really don't have any other tasks going on today.  I do want to rearrange the living room furniture and open up the heat vents so may do that tomorrow using Joe.  I will switch out the bedding, put the feather bed back on the bed, and get ready for the nesting of winter.
