My terrible horrible no good very bad moment
Tonight, I pouted. I cried. My hair is falling out, the skin on my face is so dry that it hurts. My skin is peeling, and I think I will look weird without eyebrows. Evelynne suggested that I get an eyebrow wig. Funny - very - not. My next chemo is in a week and I don't want to be sick again. I won't be able to go to Lucas' competition because I'll feel too crummy. Our new student arrives next Saturday and how will I make a nice dinner for him? I'm glad I wrote this all down. My moment is over. I'm done pouting. I found a video of other people's bad days and it made me laugh.

Hi jackie,
Thanks for sharing all the good and bad moments.
I can't really help with the hair, only to offer support and a shoulder to lean on. But I can help with dinner.
Let me good dinner for your family and your new student, so you and Norm don't have to fuss.
I can drop it by on Saturday or if you don't feel up to it on the day of, just send everyone over here and we will feed them. I will call you. Hugs to you.

Just think, Jackie, you may just end up with LESS hair than Norm. Are you trying to make him jealous or something?

It's undeniable... there are bad days that come with a cancer diagnosis. On those days, try to remember the bigger picture. Remember why you are putting yourself through this torture. You are doing it for your family. You are doing it for your life.
When my hair started to fall out, I kept repeating the following mantra: Losing your hair is not a tragedy. Losing your hair is not a tragedy. It somehow helped me keep it all in perspective:) Maybe it will help you too.
Wishing for brighter days.

My favorite good looking sister,
much love to you, i wish so badly that I was there to be with you, and to help with things. There is this small problem of a ocean between us. Regardless of how much water is between us, my heart is with you, and I'm lifting you up to the Lord in prayer each day.
Hang in there on the good days, and the rough days, let the tears come, and let God wipe them away for you. love you, little sis, julie
