Robin's Breast Cancer Blog

This collection of messages was written as we've been dealing with Robin's breast cancer for several reasons: (1) To keep our friends ("extended family") up-to-date. (2) To educate folks about "the cancer trip". (3) To help us absorb what was happening, and purge any negativity that might affect Robin. Robin must maintain a positive, hopeful attitude, but with realistic understanding. We follow the mantra, "One day at a time", and trust that God will make good come from difficulty.

Hair Today-Gone Tomorrow - 9/15/05

 
 












Well, it happened again, as expected. Robin's hair started falling out.

For the last week, her pubic hair has been falling out (TMI?) and her scalp was hurting, so she knew it was imminent. This morning, as she rubbed her head, the hair was coming out in her hands. So out came the clippers, and Larry shaved the rest off, so that hair would not be falling out all day.

Just as a side note, she has been having few side effects from the last chemo, so far. The next treatment is next Tuesday, September 20th. Please continue to keep her in your prayers!!!

Love to all,
Larry & Robin
