Check Out My Swing!-Life in the Rough

[1hope]

Well, what doesn't kill us makes us stronger ha! ha!

Seriously, I think we all just play with the cards we get delt. If you had told me last year that I would be adding the MLC to my list of woes, I would have said NO Way! My H was very supportive thru my illness. Took me to all of my chemo treatments and called me every day. He did not hang out in the bar and gave me lots of time and attention. I am very thankful for that.

It only made it more painful thought when that all ended and he began the MLC. I know that looking at my mortality helped to trigger his issues. At one point this weekend he said, "what if you get cancer again?" He sounded like a lost boy.

k, the ow tried to say i trapped H by getting sick also, sad thing was that I told him about my health issues on our first date, the year before her, have been in and out of the hospital alot, then the 6 months before the OW starting getting what he already knew would be the fight of my life. AND no woman, would choose to go lose all thier hair. esp this one.

well, M I guess you should ask H whether he might want to feel kinda icky for a day or so, or like DEATH for a couple weeks, see then what he decides on that shot! lol!

[Babygirl]

wow 1hope, least he helped you instead of running to another woman. AND what if you do? its not the life we chose is it? looking at your mortality should make him realize what a bad azz woman you are! you are a survivor, he should be thankful.

yeah uh how do you make your hair fall out on purpose lol?

Losing my hair was not as bad to me as losing my eyelashes. I had a very hard time with that. An offset though was not having to shave (anything) for a while heh! heh! Yeah, like you care a bout a bikini line when you feel like $h!t.

On the other hand, I did get some cool ball caps!

[Babygirl]

LOL!!!!!! oh I know all about the joys of not shaving, cept when the hair started coming back, I was obsessive about certain things lol! my eyelashes thinned bad, but I didnt lose all of them.
oh I have great ball caps, and so many bandannas. since I had to restart it again, sigh, was close to getting almost an inch of growth back, its thinning again, but the HS football boys (my d16 is a cheerleader dating one of them)have been so supportive, if they beat our rival this friday, I am gonna let them mohawk me (they have them lol) before I go bald again! something to make it fun, the last time, when I finally had them take what I had left off, H came home, and I didnt see him for a couple days, this time, bald is gonna be fun!

Hair, well that is one thing I think I wouldn't miss as mine is all over the house from the menopause. But it keeps coming back.

Babygirl--I have read about his OW. She does sound like a piece of work. At least she is showing you her cards too.

He should be happy you survived. Of course mine said he didn't want me to die that way, just stop breathing.

[1hope]

Cinders, you can hijack anytime!

My H was supportive to my face, but I found out after that he was terrified and cried everyday in the shower. When the MLC started he used to tell me that he cried me out.

I didn't mind bald. I had 2 very good wigs but hated wearing them. I always had long hair, so the bald look was a shock, and I was careful to wear a bandana and cap if I thought it might upset someone. My S25 had the hardest time.

My hair now is about 5 inches long and spikey/curley. I really like it and I get compliments everywhere, every day. Except from H. When I pressed him he just said, it's sooo different.

I've also lost 35 lbs. But it's like he doesn't even see me any more.

[Babygirl]

I didnt get wigs, but might this time. i havent decided yet. sadly this tomboy only had 2 girly things, my nails and my long curly hair. I too still wear at least a ball cap or bandanna or both, I am not comfortable at all with letting anyone see me without them.
I am so jealous about your hair! part of my sadness is my H HATES short hair, sigh.

I too have lost weight, need to gain some back!
