It is GROWING....my hair that is.....not my nose.


It is GROWING….

my hair that is…..not my nose. 



My hair is super super short, white and a cottony fluff !!! 
It really does not resemble hair at this point.

I look like a guy who just had a buzz cut 3 weeks ago, 
only fuzzier. 

  At first it was all white, not silver or gray, I mean WHITE. 
   Thought maybe i would wear it short like PINK...
Not sure I could have pulled it off, 
but I was thinking about it. 
 Now it is around 1/ 2 long in some places and some darker color is coming in.
And that kind of looks black? So now I am NOT so thrilled. Not crazy about the FrOSTED look.
From everything I have read – it will be a surprise!  
Not many people 
ever have the same hair -  they had before chemo.
It could be curly or straight, frizzy or not, gray, white or your normal color??? 
Hey maybe it will be purple....purple is in.

I will say – I have enjoyed NO HAIR - NO drying, NO curling and NO styling, etc. 
I just may keep it super short no matter what color? 
I am all about easy ….these days.

I am not worried....
I will take what I get, 
do what I can with what I have 
and be grateful for it. 
I am confident God will help me through that part too.
If I have a sad moment …. 
and miss my old hair, I will just remind myself I am alive, 
I kicked cancers butt, I have my wonderful husband, son, family and friends…… The rest does not matter.

I am living each day, 
One day at a time and enjoying the hell out of it!!

  1. Hi Kelly,
    It has been awhile since I have seen you (December). I miss you and continually think about how strong you must be to have to deal with all this and the patience, hope, and faith you must have acquired. Your posts are very inspiring and I know you must be touching the hearts and lives of many. You are touching me in more ways than you can imagine. Hang tough.......you are well on your way. Love, hugs, and kisses. Melissa

  2. Thank you Melissa. Writing in my blog has been good for me. It helps me rid my body and mind of things I am thinking. Helping me to move on. Writing my real feelings down was odd and hard at first, I am a private person. However,I got over that.
    I would be extremely pleased if reading my blog does someone else - some good.
    Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. I appreciate hearing from you.
    Love k

  3. Congrats. I'm with you on doing things the easy way. If someone only loves us for our looks then we don't really have their love. Do what feels right, makes you happy and life will roll on.

    Love you, Angela.
