Bad Hair Days

Well, when they talk about two sides of the coin, they are right. M-E's hair has been gone for while. She had her head shaved in November. She has a wig that she wore but soon decided that bald was beautiful. She mourned the loss of her hair. She whined when it started to grow back because it hurt and then loved it again because it was so soft. Lucy (our cat) gets very jealous because I pet M-E's head all the time.

The hair is definitely back. It is about 1/2 long. It is an unremarkable color. Sort of a dull dark brownish grey. It seems to be straight and is still very very soft.

It is supposed to leave again soon. She has had three doses of Doxieyrubinson. The Rubison family evidently does not approve of hair. They banish it from all possible places on the human body. The Rubison's are a scary family. The medication is bright red. Deep and pure in color. It looks like cough medicine. I don't think things we put in children's veins should be colored. Evidently there is a medicine called Blue Thunder that is bright blue. Opps, back to the point of this entry.

Mary-Elizabeth woke up today with hair sticking up!!!! Her first bad hair day! We are so excited. Bad hair days. The other side of the coin.
