The oncologist called today and asked if I could come in Friday. I called back and told them I was in Yellowstone and had decided to take a little vacation before all the craziness started. They were able to squeeze me in next Monday instead of my original appointment Thursday. Which is great! But then I was thinking hmm, is that good or bad? The receptionist assured me it was because they had a cancellation and the doctor wanted to see me earlier.
The bf brought up shaving my head again. But now we (he) start joking about how I’m going to look like a man and I’m going to be crying every time I lose hair. He also mentioned that I look like a different person right now because of the shape of my face. Sigh.
ToughMom IMed me to check in on our trip and also told me that she and her husband had researched Hodgkins on wikipedia. She mentioned that 1) it was the most curable cancer, 2) the chemo treatment they use is the gentlest one and 3) which means there is a chance I won’t lose my hair or not be able to have kids. All on the bright side though I’m fully prepared for both. Guess we’ll find out next Monday!
