I realized I hadn't actually posted this, so I thought I would now...
With the knowledge that Heather will in fact lose big patches of hair while she undergoes radiation we had a hair cut/shopping spree for wigs last night. My wonderful sister was so sweet and took us hair shopping. We went to several different shops and found Heather 3 different affordable wigs to wear now or when she starts losing her hair, though she is awfully fond of wearing them now as well. Afterwards, we took her to get her hair cut in such a way she could wear a wig and you wouldn't be able to tell otherwise.
She is just SOOOO beautiful!!!
Last night she seemed to do well with the extreme change. This morning it hit her hard and we needed to have a cuddle time while she cried over the fact that her hair is gone. Rough morning. I so wish she didn't have to go through all this. It breaks my heart. The best that I can do is fight for every thing I can find to help heal her and hold and comfort her when she isn't feeling well. I wish I could just take it all from her. I would go through it myself if I could spare her from it.
