What everyone knows about cancer is that people usually lose their hair during chemo.
What I never knew before I got cancer, was that lots of people do this in stages :)
By that I mean many women go from their "normal" haircut to a shorter "pre-chemo/surgery" cut and then finally go bald. It's not really a gradual process, but alot of women seem to prepare themselves for baldness by at least going shorter with their cut than they're normally used to.
I totally did this.
So, on Valentine's Day, I thought I would post a little photo journal of my hair. What it was like when Caleb was born... and then when I decided to go for the "mommy cut" and then after I was diagnosed...
Happy Valentine's Day!

Look at all that hair! Well past my shoulders.
The Mommy cut. I love this hairstyle...
The pre-chemo cut. Thank goodness this 'works' for me!
The big reveal... no hair!
