Keri's Breast Cancer Story: Keri Prepares for Her Upcoming Breast Reconstruction Surgery

By Doug Haberstroh, Health Guide Wednesday, October 10, 2007

 

Well, there's not too much else to update on. Oh except my hair...it is growing back. It will be exciting to see exactly what it will do. So far it is a nice brunette color and seems to be quite thick. It is about a half inch long which makes it look like a cute little boy's hair cut. I have a few strands that are longer than the others and you can see a little curve in them. So I guess curly is still a possibility. It is thick enough that when I wear my hat I get a small ring of hat hair around my head and it tends to stand up a little in the mornings or after showers. We'll see what happens. We have a wedding to attend here in May for a friend of Doug's and I would like to be able to go without a hat at least by then.

 

I hope that you are all doing well. Have a great week.

 

Love,

Keri

 

 

A Note from Doug: We're also telling Keri's breast cancer story as a weekly comic strip. Check back each week to follow her treatment. In last week's episode, Episode 9, Keri describes how excited she is to be almost done with chemo.
