AHHHH! I AM COMPLETELY BALD....

BUT my boobs are bigger then they have ever been!  I go and get my weekly "fill" each Friday.  It's like going to the spa to me.  Instead of a facial I get a big needle with saline solution to blow up my ta ta's.  I have FINALLY hit puberty.  After 33 years it is about time!  This week instead of filling them 25 cc's like they have done since my surgery, I told them to double it and fill them 50 cc's each time.  My ta ta's are now at 175 cc's a piece so this will add to my weight gain and chest size.  150 cc's to go!  Holy cow is Steve excited...I kind of am too!  I have never had boobs before!

Now on to the hair thing...again!  My hair started falling out more about four days after my first big hair cut.  I would take a shower and get so freaked out to wash my hair because it would just rub off.  YUCK!  On top of that it was making a mess!  I am a clean freak and hair every where was driving me bonkers.  Once again I had it shaved down to a buzz cut.  Steve was so brave to shave it this time.  That lasted a whole 48 hours until I had to use my own razor and spend an hour in the shower shaving the rest of it off.  I am now completely bald!  Don't you dare tell me I look good bald!  My head is in desperate need of a tan to even itself out with my face shade.  I am revealing my beautiful, untanned head, with NO make up on....at the end of this blog.  So make fun of me all you want...but I am pulling the cancer card on you for this one...you will feel guilty afterwards!

After I shaved my head I put on some make up with the Jessica Simpson wig I received from my friend Angie.  I LOVE it only because it is a new look.  I already fooled a long time friend of mine, Mike Holm and his wife Emily.  I was at HyVee on Saturday and they walked right past me and did not recognize me.  I laughed the whole way home.  I can get use to this! =)

My Jessica Simpson Wig with my new hat!
Thanks Angie for the wig, Emily and Nicki for the hat!

Olivia just got home from fishing with her dad!

I go in on Thursday to meet with a neurologist for my right hand.  My index and middle finger have been numb since my surgery in April so we are going to get to the root of the problem.  Please pray it is only a temporary injury and my nerves will come back sooner the later.  I WANT my right hand back!

I also start round 3 of chemo on Thursday.  Hopefully I will only have 13 more rounds to go as I will find out if I have the HER2 receptor which will require more chemotherapy.  Please pray I do NOT have the HER2 receptor.

Thank you to:

Bob and Sue Peterson for the Olive Garden gift card
Heather McQuillan, Heather Terry, Elizabeth Norris and Sara Recker for the Victoria's Secret Gift card

Thank you to my cousin Leah, her husband chad, my aunt Linde and uncle Terry for setting up the cleaning crew.  It is so nice to have one more thing off my plate.

Thank you to all our family and friends for your continued support, love and prayers.  You make us stronger everyday.

YIKES!  I need to tan my head!
