Sorry for the blurriness, but here I am at the end of April, approaching a sea-urchin-like state of hair. |

Post-surgery, taken early June (3 months of growth). The hair has finally started laying down somewhat on my forehead and covers my ears when I don't tuck it behind them. |
Hello, if you're still out there! Since my last post, I have been on a journey that has left me thankful to be alive, as well as aware of my lack of hair posting. My hair has grown out considerably since the last picture, so I present to you, without further delay, a quick photo-rundown of the last couple of months. And so that you will not be alarmed should you notice a new scar on my neck, be assured that though I was diagnosed with melanoma in early May, it was removed last month. I am now cancer-free, thanks to a keen-eyed dermatologist and an excellent surgical oncologist, who fought my battle for me. I had a hard time turning my head to take any sort of decent picture and didn't feel much like smiling for a while, so I apologize for the lack of photos here. But I'm back, and better than ever! The hair is about an inch and a quarter long now, and has still not been cut or trimmed since Shave Day.
