Before...


Well the chemo didn't take my hair... and no, it didn't speed things up either.
Its just one of those slovenly experiments really - shorthand for - well, water was precious in Sweden so we spared on the personal hygiene, and then it got fun so...

I call it my "swedish fisherman's" beard. That's not what others have called it.
Adjectives have included: prickly, yuck, hmmm, silence... (my mum) and absolutely magnificent!! (which helped to even things out a bit - thanks Natasha, 10 quid's in the post)

But i couldn't possibly present myself to the BRI surgeons in this state, plus it puts a good 5 years on me. So right now, the bristles are feeling nervous - as am i (increasingly) of next week.
NEXT WEEK!!

  1. I wouldn't worry about the beard as much as the funny looking squirrel growing out of your right shoulder - did they mention those kind of side-effects at all, do you have any nut munching urges? Missing us all in Sweden, thinking of you Emma et al xxxx
