a good day to put in the past

needless to say, i didn't emerge victorious from the bone marrow biopsy discussion. although the chances of cancer being in my bone marrow are slim (like 0.5%), i can appreciate that we had to confirm. in the event that i need to go down the stem cell transplant path, understanding the status of my pre-treatment bone marrow was imperative. so, i tried my best (although not a very graceful 'best' today) to roll with the punches. i'm glad to put one more (rather daunting) thing behind me.

i also decided to get ahead of my impending hair loss today and cut it off. i felt as though watching short pieces of hair fall out wouldn't be as troubling as long pieces of hair and decided to chop it. i anticipate that once i notice it starting to fall out, i will go through one more cut to get it super short before i finally just buzz it all.

voila:
