Uncle Fester

I think I look like Uncle Fester. All I need is an ankle length black coat with a (faux) fur collar. If you run across anything like this, let me know. I need one for my wardrobe.

You probably think I’m just joking!

It seems like little bits of hair are starting to grow. I predict that I’ll have what could be thought of as a normal amount of hair by spring. I can’t remember what happened last year. It seemed as though I had a short curly head of hair by spring.

This is what my head looks like now.

We can hardly wait for your story of the stool sample.
Meanwhile: Grow, hair, Grow!!

Richard shaved his eyebrows once after chemo. He’s got kind of buggy eyes naturally. He really looked like Uncle Fester.

Sometimes you just have to laugh because it can be a choice… instead of crying.
The myeloma humor at our house might be difficult for civilians to understand.

Hey there, Fester, looking good! I have always wanted curly hair. My hair is thick and wavy, but not curly. So I say, go for the curl! And Sunshine, we should all get together some day and see who can come up with the best myeloma humor. Bring on the stool sample stories! ;-) Margaret in Florence, Italy (a gorgeous windy sunny day, here)

Hi Beth,

David only lost @ half of his hair, but it looks worse than being bald. I tried to talk him into shaving his head by telling him that I’d alway had the “hots” for Uncle Fester, so sexy and smooth he was. Didn’t work. He just wears a baseball cap everywhere. Dave did lose all of the hair on certain unmentionable parts……I can’t resist teasing.
Myeloma humor gets pretty “sick” in our house too, but our humor has always been strange.
I can’t wait for the stool story too. As a hospital microbiologist, I seen a lot !!

best wishes,

Patricia
