Before & After

Hair Loss

Well I thought I was doing pretty good & hoping I was going to keep my hair through the first round or two, but when I woke up this morning and ran my fingers through my hair I looked at my hand & it was covered in hair. Clumps & clumps just keep coming out as I run my hands through my hair so I decided to check out my chin and the same thing...clumps of facial hair falling out as I touch it. This is just so weird & crazy....

Pics of "Powder" Nicholas will get posted tonight

Relief

Wow! Woke up Thursday morning and my knee was the size of a grapefruit.... two days later I wake up to my knee being totally fine no more swelling. Miraculous almost how our bodies adapt and adhere to the wear and tear of life. We r so much stronger than we give ourselves credit for. Our bodies can take so much more its the willingness of the brain that controls our fate.
