Oh dear

Attended a fashion show in Manila, where I was introduced to T - a former fashion model who is currently undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. (She was bald and proud and looking absolutely fantastic. I successfully fought my urge to spit on her.) She still has one more session of Taxol to go, yet she has much more hair than I. Uh-oh. Worrywart that I am, I am now convinced that my hair will not grow back fully and I will have to spend the rest of my life with a Friar Tuck hairdo. Because of this silly paranoia, I keep rubbing my head, hoping to find ANY evidence of hair growth. LH is getting cross, saying that whatever hair growth I may have will get lost to the constant rubbing. I'm hoping that on the contrary, it will work more like a massage, and actually stimulate growth...

  1. Honey, I seriously doubt that T was a patch on your beauty. Take no notice. Your hair will grow back beautifully. Alright gorgeous? ;) F x

  2. You are ABSOLUTELY STUNNING with or without hair. Truly. You are one of those irritating people on America's Next Top Model who undergo their radical makeover and still look AMAZING! Seriouely you are a total knockout before and after. It's just now the people who were mad jealous of how gorgeous you were pre EC may now begrudgingly tell you you're hot now! Stop rubbing your head. People will think you have knits! Thrust your shoulders up and slice a piece of the action with your cheekbones. You are stunningly beautiful always. Lxxx

  6. Did you know that model T was actually saying the same thing about you? And sis, constant rubbing may stimulate certain (sometimes hairy) parts of the body, but sadly, not necessarily the head. hehe.
