Beginning of the end
November 21: It's been two weeks since the start of chemo treatments. Prior to today, I hadn't noticed any hair loss. Today was very different. It's the beginning of the end of my hair as I know it. Handfuls of hair are coming out. It's not coming out in clumps but when I run my hand through my hair, my hand is covered with hair. Even knowing this effect was coming didn't make it any less traumatic. I expect it to be gone by the time I start the next treatment cycle on Tuesday, November 28th.
