I am loving not having to wash my hair everyday and the amount I'm saving on product!

Im day 7 post chemo ( had it wednesday in SALE), and i became very dehydrated! Apparently i was withdrawing off the Dexamethasone badly, my pulse was averageing around 95-100 bpm for most of this week, today is good, at 65. I was almost admitted on a drip, but i got stuck into bottle after bottle of water and an electrolyte icy pole to rehydrate, worked! So today is an awsome day for me :) Also i got great news off my chemo specialist yesterday, I can now do my chemo in Bairnsdale, 30 min away instead of 1.5hrs! And the oncology unit is only 12 mnths old and its soooo nice!!! And i know the food is good there! Travelling to SALE made me anxious and sick in itself, i hated staying in overnight away from my boys and my man having to travel all the time. I may stay in o/n again, as this chemo will be the last of the nasty stuff, and apparently it will hit hard, after this i get Dositaxyl ( spelt wrong), thats a more user friendly type and i wont be so ill, so, one more hit of shit, then its 3 of the other, then off to radio for 6 weeks.

Im glad your going away! Sounds beautiful, I intend to make a trip too, not sure where, but after all this i think i deserve it, so does my man. We women go through alot to keep breathing, no matter how much we want to quit at times., but our family suffer as well.

And yes, my bikini line is sooo smooth! hahahaha, my legs are great!

Stay strong girl, stay well!!! xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi gayle How is chemo treating you??? How many more to go ?? I smile when I remember the caterpillars leaving the garden en masse one morning in the shower day 7 after chemo 1. It's not everyday you can do your bikini line with a washer and get super smooth results lol. I have my third taxol tomorrow.... Chemo 7/16 so nearly half way... Yippee. Finding it easier now they are weekly...things are moving faster... Will have my last chemo 7th June then planning a weekend in the blue mountains with my gorgeous man... The cottage has a sunken spa on a glass enclosed verandah with views over the mountains. That image is one of the things getting me through chemo. Of course my 3 beautiful chn are my number one reason. Hope you are doing well Love Mel xxx

Thank you so mcuh Jey. It means a lot to me and thank you for the heads up on the length. I don't want prickles, but I guess if I go for a number 2-3 and find it prickly we can slowly go down 1 size at a time until it is Ok, or is all gone :-).

That is the sort of thing my hubby sayd - you should see the birthday card he got me it is hilarious (to me - others might find it a bit offensive, but I nearly wet myself laughing).

Thank you for the Happy Birthdya wishes, and I can't wait for tomorrow to get it all off.

Just hoping my head is as pretty as yours.

Hey Shazinoz

you go girl, looking forward to seeing you with the full monty happening.

My hubby loves my bald head as he says he loves running his hands through my hair, hello I don't have any............durr

Gotta have a laugh.

Thinking of you and you are lucky your hubby is practiced at the hair cut.  I wasn't letting my hubby anywhere near me with clippers.

My advice is go as short as possible so the prickles don't get you when you sleeping.

LOL and will be thinking of you and wishing you a great big fat HAPPY BIRTHDAY.  I hope you had a special day hair and all.

Thanx Joey.

Luckily Hubby does his own hair so we have the clippers at home, and he is doing it for me in the privacy of our own home. I can't tell yuo how much I am looking forward to not being tabgled in and picking up my hair from EVERYWHERE. It has tobe easier when you hair is only 1-2 cm long, it has to be.

I have a sleep cap that they gave me at the local hat/ wig store for patients,and a couple fo beanies they let me choose as well.

I might sleep with one of my sleep caps on tonight just so I don't wake myself up at 3am chocking on my now unattached hair (like I did early hours this morning - NOT a nice way to wake up).

I would have done it today, but today is my 41st birthday and decided it would be my last hair day for the next 6 or so months. (but kind of regret that a little becasue it hasbeen VERY annoying today).

Thank you for your support, and I will check in tommorrow and add a photo with my nearly nude nut and then another with my nude nut - probably in a few days time).

Hi Shaz.  Yes please post a pic tomorrow.  It was a bit emotional for me to have my hair cut off (at the beginning of the haircut) but I also found it quite liberating.  The sensations on my scalp were all new to me.  Feeling the breeze on my skin, even the sound of running my hand over my head was fascinating. 

Have someone there to hold your hand and quickly grab you for a nice long cuddle afterwards. 

Check in with us tomorrow ok?  I'll be thinking of you xx
