The new me! I like it. He did such an awesome job and I'll enjoy it while it lasts. I haven't had my hair this short since the 2nd grade. Otherwise, I am doing okay. They aren't kidding about the nausea though. I keep looking forward to the day it passes. I have such great support though. Thank you everyone! Thanks Jill for giving me such a cool new do. Scott is doing great too. He was at Ikea with my mom while I got my hair hacked. I don't think he would have been as brave as I was and I had Ativan! For you non-medical people, Ativan is a very strong anti-anxiety med used for chemo-induced nausea; it's also a nice muscle relaxer!Sunday, September 2, 2007

Dearest Hope -- That haircut had to be the bravest thing of all --you look fabulous! Did you convince your mother to do the same? We could all get a short cut just to show Bruce you have troops to fight him!Make Scott get a buzz cut!Cody is the cutest!I am so glad you are sending photos -- When I see your pictures I feel like I have actually connected with you from Farmington!I gave my friend Katie your Blog address - I don't know if she has accessed it yet but I noticed you have a Katie posting comments.Hope the nausea subsides as the days pass -- as a nurse you should know that some anti nausea drugs are for prevention and should be taken before you have those side effects! I hope you are being good! The old saying is that Nurse's make the worst patients! I am confident you will prove that wrong! I love you Hope --Aunt Austa called to see how you are doing.Aunt Peggy called as well -- she is praying for you too. Anyway- love and miss you wish I could kiss you and hug you and squeeze you all over!

Your hair looks great!! Not everybody can pull off a short hairstyle (e.g. me LOL), but you certainly can!! =) Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers!!!
Love the hair cut, Hope! ...The smile on you would make any haircute look 'gorgeous'! I'm so proud of you! Prayin' for you! Let me know when you don't feel nauseated if you want anything to eat! I love to cook!, Kristen Engler....ps did you know I got engaged 7/17/07 and will be getting married 1/26/08. YEAH!
Hope, your haircut looks so cute! I admire your positive attitude and I'm praying for you whenever I think of you. Miss you!
Its a miracle! Not you! I mean, me, getting into here! (with the help of julie OF COURSE). Short hair really makes your eyes pop out, they've always been spectacular, but short definitely does it. Keep up your spirits. Hugs and paw prints from the girls.
Love,
Rita
Hop i,
Just me, no message. Julie made me practice signing in on my own. EEeeeeeeek!
Rita
I love your new do....it looks GREAT!!!
my friend Patty (a former hairdresser) says the do makes you look younger and from now on you should show your id and not talk to strangers. Hope that the nausea subsides a little. Just remember this famous phrase for a tough guy like Bruce "Bring it ON".
You look marvelous. (Said in my best Billy Crystal voice). -Ann Marie
u look BEAUTIFUL luv!!!!
SO CUTE! I miss you.
