The hair is gone now, as was expected about two weeks after the first chemo session. We have already gotten used to the 'GI Jane' look underneath the beautiful wig that looks very natural and pretty.
Went for a driving lesson today - hopefully have the license test on Friday, bureaucrats willing. That will be a great step towards regaining independence!
The phantom limb is still ever present; two days ago, the pins and needles disappeared for a whole afternoon. We are hoping that they will disappear for longer and longer intervals and vanish completely eventually. Kate is continuing with the mirror box on a daily basis as it affords much relief.
We are not looking forward to next week - next set of chemo - trying to enjoy the chemo free time in the meantime.
Hi Katy
