Day 13 Chemo 1. Tue. 08/01/2017 8:45PM
13th day of Post Chemo. Now hairs are falling off from my scalp. Watermelon Juice did not work on me, but I will continue to drink it for good health.
So after my clinic, my niece Sinead and I went to Bruno's Barber Shop at SM Seaside, Cebu City and let the barber shaved my head to baldness. The process was a torture 'coz I was really ticklish. I had him stop several times as I kept giggling every goosebumps that tingles on me. Thank God there were only 2 other men who had a haircut at that time. Otherwise, all of them would probably be so annoyed with all my noise as I giggled through the entire session.
After the haircut I had muscle cramps all over my back 'coz I was like a worm wiggling and curling left and right. I kept asking if we were done especially at the nape area which was the softest spot of my ticklishness, giving me a torture like feeling. What a relief when it was over. I Survived!!!
Recalling the cafe hopping we did last night with my 2 good friends Dr. Melissa Dublin and Dr. Christina Aban, I would say, we were just so lucky to have our pictures taken together, while I had my complete hair. That was the last day I was able to retain my crowning glory. It was this morning while taking a bath as I washed off the shampoo from my hair that a lot of hair came falling down to the bathroom floor. Thus, I decided to shave them off completely.
When I arrived home, my best friend Roselyn Yu asked through the messenger how am I doing? She must have sensed something today. I told her that: "I'm completely fine, yet I'm bald already." In reply she asked for a picture. So I sent one with my bandana on and another without the bandana. With the bandana, the scene is a little bit subtle, I looked ok. But without it, I looked pretty much like a monk in the shaolin temple or a convict sentenced to a death penalty. Ha ha ha!!!.
Although, Jerome, my Guardian Angel had a different version of course of how my new look fared, ha..ha..ha. He mentioned that I am the older version of Ang, “The Last Air Bender” and the copycat version of Demi Moore of “GI Jane”, ha...ha..ha. Well, he has more sophisticated way of looking at my shaved head which kind of appealing and not so harsh on me.
