Thanks Noah...but it really wasn't meant to be sad...I was just joking around. The chemo turned my hair completely grey, but at least I still have hair...just a bit thinner than before, but its getting thicker every day. I actually find the grey quite amusing right now, but eventually I'll dye it back to its original color...  ~loads of hugsLyra |

Oh Lyra, I do love this. And I know that feeling. I keep wondering how I could have changed so much, when I feel the same as ever. Hugs Sandra |

Thanks so much Sandra... The chemo turned my hair completely grey...but I guess thats better than making it fall out. BTW, do you know how I can change the color of my words? I originally had another picture with it, but it wouldn't post, and the words match the other picture... ~getting old hugggsss~Lyra |

 (big hugggssssssss) Awwwwwww, I understand how you feel, sweet friend, I have missed you so so much lately and reading your gorgeous words! (smiles) I guess sometimes I tend to get a little too sensitive over poems, so I'm sorry if I sounded a little overemotional! (kiss on cheek) Ooohhhhhhh...it's just so great to have you back!  Love, Noah Eaton |

Lyra, welcome back. I have missed your words so much. I always find what you write brings a smile to my face. Even in times of sickness and hardship, this poem made me smile. You have a wonderful attitude and I am sure it has helped you so much. Be well and bless you. Hugs, Marti " My wrinkles are badges of courage and reveal that I am a Mother." |

I'm glad to be back, Noah...but its probably only temporary.... On Monday, we start running back and forth to Ann Arbor again... and the radiation treatments have been so horribly exhausting, which is what has kept me away from my computer. I only have 1 week left of the radiation, but they say it takes a couple of weeks to recover from it...so I'll be back whenever I can. Its really great to be appreciated and missed Thanks a bunch  ~hugsLyra |

Lyra, I'm just betting that I would love your grey! And btw, if your low on energy these days I vote you leave it grey and keep your energy for PiPs! My little battle is nothing compared to your experience I know...but I do bear so much concern for your health. While you fight your battle we will patiently pray and wait for your return, dear friend. It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo! |

It is not so much what we look like but how we see ourselves, and God forbid we ever change!! You are beautiful both inside and out, and your poetry just adds to your highlights. Warm huggers~ |

Thank you so much, Larry...not only for your reply but also for your concern. You are right...for the present time, I'm leaving it grey...but it did get a bit thinner and I'm seeing the new hairs come in now and they are looking darker...so I think the grey ones are just stronger. I have lots and lots of hair, so even though I lost some of it, most people who don't know what it looked like before, never even know that I lost any of it....of course, I could end up having some more chemo or some other treatment that would take ALL of it out, but for now at least I have hair...and grey hair is better than no hair and so.........I LOVE my grey hair because it is growing on my head. I still have a week of radiation therapy left, so I may not be back again for a while after tonight...but I was feeling well enough to come here today, so I did. ~warm hugsLyra |

Thanks so much, Sy... I have missed being here so very much, but have had trouble even keeping my eyes open lately. The radiation treatments seem to take everything out of me, and I still have another week to go...but I really wanted to come back here tonight because I felt okay... I know this is temporary...but I will be back again when I finish being radiated.... Thanks for missing me. ~many hugsLyra |

Thanks so much, Martin...at least its hair...LOL Actually the grey doesn't really bother me, but as soon as I am allowed to, I am going to dye it back to its original color because I like it better...but until then, I can live with the grey...of course grey hair is better than no hair! ~loads of hugsLyra |

Thanks so much, Barry...Please don't dye your skin grey  I think men look much better when their skin isn't that dirty color.  ~lots of hugggsss Lyra |
