All of my "cancer friends" who also had Hodgkin's are now done with their treatments and growing their hair and eyelashes back. They look so good!
It makes me really excited for the coming months... that's for sure!
I wanted to document how the eyelashes are looking these days. Some people don't believe me when I said I only had five eyelashes left... maybe I was exaggerating a bit.
Maybe I have like... seven.
Before...
Now...
I'm wearing eyeliner to make it look like I have something going on there... and mascara. Notice how there are no lashes on the outside or in the middle, and they are breaking off all short before they fall out. Crazy... I'll be happy to have those back.

thanks to you, today i'll be grateful for my eyelashes.
there's a lady in my ward who can pull-off wearing fake ones... i dare ya to try it. :)
Your eyelashes are incredible! Your eyelashes now are still longer than mine. :) Just beautiful!
that's what mine did too. It makes me wonder if we have shorter ones that we don't see because they are so full, and maybe hte long ones fall out first? I don't know- I just wish I had a pic of my eye lashes gone, because I feel like people didn't believe me either. I'm so excited for you to be done! I can't wait to read your blog then!
Meg, I think you're beautiful. You have the eyelashes of a warrior. Your body is fighting with all it's got and right now it shows. The great news is you are almost done. In a few months (well maybe in a year!:)) time all these signs of your fight will be gone and they will only be a memory.
I would love to help you plan a victory party after your last treatment and when your feeling strong.
Your in my prayers Meg and I hope these last few days will go by fast. Love ya!
Wow, I'm impressed you have that many left! That is like twice what I had then I finished my treatments. This will bode well for them growing back fast! Good luck with your last treatment!
