I also had the support of warriors, Peter Pongratz and Patrick Spencer. Actually, they decided to shave their heads first, after which I reconsidered shaving mine. But they assured me it was too late to reconsider.
All joking aside, it was a really amazing gesture amongst us men and I feel so honored by their willingness to take that leap. And it was great not having to touch my hair this morning!

ReplyDeleteAll kidding aside; you have great friends and good support. Maria thinks you look handsome. But let's face it; she always thinks you look handsome. Every day we hear; "he's so handsome".
That's great John! All three of you look good bald! I hope you are feeling well today :)

ReplyDeleteYou and your buddies are meeting it all 'head-on' ... just like staying ahead of the nausea, staying ahead of the hair loss! Keep up that spirit, and we support you!

I actually had an internal debate over whether you would beat the chemo to the punch. I would have done the same thing. Good on you, John - hope the next few days of chemo go by quickly for you.
ReplyDeleteWahoo! I shaved my head before it all fell out too... Of course, I didn't have too much choice as my hair tangled into a knot once it started slowly falling out...it's the best way, take back control in any form possible! :) Also, hair falling out can be gross...haha.
ReplyDeleteYou know I donated locks for love last time I got a hair cut, and I'm gonna have to get one soon for civil service work.
ReplyDeleteJust think John: you could have a head of MY long, dirty-blonde, hair; confusing people about my gender from behind since 1902!
You are already winning the battle my dear! I give you soooo much credit! You're the strongest MAN I know! You look AMAZING and always will! I'm soo lucky to have such a handsome brother! =)
ReplyDeleteLove you with all my heart!
