Dress Up Fun

March 30, 2020 by Helena Trent 13 Comments

Hope everyone is healthy and safe at home… even if you might be a bit bored. I have figured out a way to order grocery delivery so I am really in a locked down mode except for my weekly treatments. Even my doctors limits my exposure at the cancer center. I have never seen the Cancer Center to be so empty!

I have only been on the new pill for 2 weeks, already feeling better. Before I started on the pill, I started coughing (non coronavirus related of course because I had no fever.) It has not completely stopped, but gotten much better. I started having some minor pain in my liver and lungs, but they are pretty much gone most of the time. I am back to doing some tai chi everyday. It’s like having a second miracle happening again just like the first time. I think last time it took me about a month to completely stop coughing. Anyway, my doctor said he probably won’t order a CT scan for 4 months just to let all the coronavirus stuff pass. He thinks April will be the worst month for coronavirus. It’s not like I am willing to consider another treatment anyway. This is it.

Now that I have better energy, I can play dress up with my bald head! I have tried different scarfs and hats. I even bought a wig, but haven’t wore it out yet. I love being bald after having long hair all my life. It makes me giddy every morning when I look into the mirror. I think I will keep my head shaved from now on even after my hair grows back.

    You look soooo good. But I’m pretty sure I don’t want to patronize your hair stylist. Lol. I’m glad you’re feeling better, too.

    I hope you keep all options. Love the wig. Love the turban. Love the peekaboo scarf thingy. And thank God you do have a beautiful head! Plus, you are among the only
    people in the U.S. able to get a “haircut” at this time. Though radiation seems like
    the harshest possible tool.
