As the rain fell on the window sill outside the room last night, so did Amanda's hair fall on the hospital room floor. It had been falling out more and more for several days, which is the most visible side effect of the Chemo. She had had enough of looking at her pillowcase and bed full of her hair as well as the itchy neck, so last night we buzzed it off. Surprisingly to me, it was far less traumatic than I expected it would be. I think that she'd had more time to mentally prepare for it and just wanted to be more comfortable. It worked. Once this mornings fever passed she felt much more comfortable and looks like a million bucks!

Things are looking up for now. We'll touch base later.
