As Kenny Rogers says... "You have to know when to hold em, know when to fold em...".
The scarves and bandanas I have been wearing on my head are done being held, and they are washed and folded and put away for a time that I want to wear one instead of just covering a bald head.
My hair has been around for a couple months now, but I was not comfortable until this past week to go without a covering. It's still kind of weird to have such short hair but I'm stepping out and dealing with it. Sure I get compliments, but it's not the kind of style that I would have if not for my losing it all. It was growing so fast at first, but it seems to have slowed down a bit.
It's easier to pluck out the gray hair this way. They seem to grow faster than the dark hair. I know, I know, after being bald for several months, I should be grateful for any hair, gray or not, but I don't like gray hair on me. Yet.
My strength is improving, but I can tell I'm not the same as I was before all this. I'm told it takes a long time, if ever, to get back to "normal".
If this is my new normal, I'm okay with it. I put my trust in God and He will see me through anything. Praise Him!

I'll bet you're absolutely stunning with hair or without! Love that you are feeling better each day and isn't it a journey finding that "new normal"? But with God all things even a "new normal" is possible and can even be full of joy. My prayers for you continue.....
I think you looked absolutely beautiful at the baseball game :)
