Tomorrow is the last day of steroids yay! I think today was a "rebuilding" day. I haven't napped in a few days (mostly because I can't fall asleep), and yesterday I think I was overly tired. This morning I went to the hairdresser and felt pretty pampered. We discussed it for awhile and I ended up going chin-length. I think I'll go shorter once the shaved patch grows in a bit more. The hairdresser did say that they were donating all cut hair to go to the gulf to assist in making absorbent buoys for the oil, which I think is pretty cool.
Tonight is a friend's college graduation party, and hard as it was to say no, I don't regret it. Today is the first day in awhile that I had a nasty headache. I didn't feel like doing much of anything but lying in a dark, quiet room.
Sue- I love the toenail polish idea! I think I will try it tomorrow. I'm sorry to hear about your stitches, that sounds sensitive! The surgeons explained to me the potential hardware, but also told me that until day of surgery, it was uncertain how much hardware was necessary. I like your doctor's sense of humor. Although its a minor amount, I have noticed that where they did the belly incision my pants fit differently now. I keep putting mederma around the staple area because it looks so Frankenstein-ish.
