I am sure it has not been unnoticed by you. It is Pinktober, breast cancer awareness month. Yes, I have become all to aware of breast cancer. I finished up my 28 radiation treatments last Friday. I am, to say the least, quite crispy. It is like getting a sunburn on top of a sunburn, on top of a sunburn, well you get the idea. I was told that this week and the next will yield the final results of my radiation (peeling, blistering, and possibly opening and draining). Not my idea of fun. So far, I have just peeled and am walking around with my hand on my hip to keep my arm from rubbing too much. Let me just say ouch!! But hey, at least I am still around. If that is all I can complain about, I am lucky.
Being Pinktober, you cannot go anywhere without seeing the pink ribbon on everything. Pink is everywhere! In honor to bring breast cancer awareness to you, I couldn't resist grabbing this pink wig from the Halloween section.
After reading this, I want all you gals to check yourself. It is Pinktober after all!
You are adorable. I am glad you are ready to heal now it sounds. Love the wig..and good reminder!
