First Day Back to School

Today was my first day back to school for the fall.  I am tired.   It was interesting to hear the all the comments about my hair.  Last year , I came back bald.  So, the current 1st graders have never seen me with hair.   Today there were lots of comments about my hair growing.  A few questions of why it is gray!  I told them we don't talk about that.  If you have lost hair, just be patient.  It will come back.  Mine is slow, but steady.   Don't worry about it.  I think about all the money I have saved, not getting my hair colored or done.  Now that everyone has seen me gray, I don't see the need to color it.  The truth is out!  The truth will always come out.   I have determined that hair is overrated.  The real you is the most important part.  You are still who you were, with or without hair.  I have found that many things are not nearly as important as I thought they were.  Cherish your family and friends.  Love life and keep fighting.  Don't let cancer win.  I know we have days that we are tired, or not feeling well. You might feel like the water is rushing over the brink of the falls. Remember the sun will come out tomorrow.   Talk to you soon.  Cathy
