the fall-out




Who ever said that your hair doesn't just fall out is wrong. These pictures - CLICK ON THEM TO MAKE THEM LARGER - were taken at work today, day two of my chemo hair loss and 15 days since my first AC chemo treatment for breast cancer.
My hair was everywhere - on my desk, on my clothes, falling into my eyes and, if I ran my fingers through my hair, in my fingers. Yet it is all taking place so slowly. Still have hair on my head and only if you look closely, can you see slight thinning patches. But the fall-out is becoming a nuisance. And obvious. Hardly the unobtrusive event I was told.
