I’m home from the hospital. I was discharged yesterday but when I came home I slept to catch up on the sleep I lost while I was there. You know they have to wake you up every three hours to check your vitals. At least they were nice about it.
When I woke up yesterday morning I noticed that there was hair all over my pillow. Then I ran my finger through my very short hair and came out with a handful. It turns out that it decided to fall out while I was in the hospital. My hair had only started to grow back in but still it was a mess so one of the nurses volunteered to shave it all off. I told her about the video my sister and I made the first time I shaved my hair. I think she was kind of bummed out we couldn’t do the same thing.
The doctors never figured out what was wrong with me. They think it the swelling in my face might have something to do with the steroids I was taking prior to chemo and two days after chemo. It might possibly be a delayed reaction.
I’m happy to be out so I can go to the Bead Expo today. I was so afraid I wouldn’t be able to go. I know I should probably be resting today but the Bead Expo comes one time a year so I’m NOT missing it.
Thanks to all of you who send all your good vibes and good thoughts my way. I really appreciate it so very much!
