There haven't been many bad days for Mom... We feel so blessed with how well she has been doing.  After her first round of chemo, she started to feel dizzy and by the end of that week she had one bad night where she just felt sick.  Other than that, Mom has been hanging in there and feeling well.  The next bad day came last Sunday, May 20th, when her hair began to fall out... She was devastated. Tiffanie gave me a call Sunday afternoon and asked to come over, and when she did she asked me to shave her head.  Tiff wanted mom to know that Mom is never alone in this and no matter what, she will always be beautiful inside and out... We had quite a bit of fun with Tiff's hair, and took some video and pictures to so Mom when she arrived that evening for dinner.

Mom came over later and as she walked through the door, Tiff came around the corner, hairless but beautiful.  It definitely caught Mom by surprise and they both cried together.  We decided that night, that the following Tuesday we would have a head shaving party... We had a lot of fun and a lot of laughs as I had the awesome opportunity to shave everyone's head... Something I most certainly enjoyed!  I was almost convinced I could make a living out of it- well at least Mohawks and flat-tops.

I must say everyone had beautiful shaped heads!  Here is mom's final shave!...

Doesn't she look great! We sure love you Mom and admire your strength as you continue on with this journey! You are never alone and you will never fully know how much we love you!!!
