Decisions

It's good that I have choices.  Nobody is making me do anything.  I don't have to do chemo, even.  I can decide.  But sometimes I want to have someone just tell me what to do from start to finish.  Even before starting treatment, I'm feeling wishy washy about decisions of any kind. Do I want to take the drug Nuelasta when I've heard about bone pain?

Do I want to wear sweatpants or something nicer to my first chemo?  And I then I'm going to have those decisions about what to wear on my head!
​
​I did purchase a wig, because I'm a wimp about my baldness, but I actually own about a zillion hats! I could wear a different one every day after I lose my hair! Maybe I should think about that.
​I do have a lot of tennis hats I could wear.  This is a cap I tried on in the Cure & Co. salon, on top of a half wig. That hair looks a lot like my own.

Or, I could just wear one of those silly hats that comes with a pony tail hanging down!

Then we have the scarf option!  And I remembered how Don and I wore matching scarves at Big Bend National Park to keep the swarming bugs off our heads.  Hey, we can be twins, again. Don could either buy a wig with me, or we could get matching scarves.   

​And here's one more idea!
​
​
 My dear friend, Lorie shared some advice about worrying over no hair.  "Just get some sexy earrings!"  I was so tickled with the idea that had come from a person, very special to her.  And next thing I knew, her own creation came in the mail.

I of course did have hair, so I covered it up and put on the earrings, I made with her mom's coat buttons and wonderful hair-like tassels!   may not look sexy, but they make me giddy and happy!  Thanks, Lorie!!

    Cancer, Covid
    & Coronary...


    I started this complaining list/blog, in May 2016. I posted 200 gripes about my breast CANCER and then I was done.

    On March 13, 2020, I started venting all over again, when another disease (starting with a C) interfered with my life. This time it was the invasion of COVID and it affected every person. I ranted for a year, until I got my COVID vaccine in March 2021.

    CORONARY Artery Disease was the reason I restarted this blog on September 26, 2021. This time it was my hubby Don, who was dealing with a worry that started with the letter "C".

    ​Coronavirus and Cancer, Coronary Artery Disease! All are evil, but none can totally get me down... if I vent!  I usually end up feeling a little more positive at the end of each post!

    ​Navigating This Mess!

    The most recent post is at the top, from coronary posts in 2022, back to cancer posts in 2016.
