Beginning Our Journey

Jun. 12, 2008

Tristans hair.

Tristans hair is getting sooo thick now. Well thick for him! I LOVE IT! My mil tells me that sometimes chemo and the process of the hair going and coming causes it to change colors. I would LOVE it if it stayed this color. Tristan hair is like a caramel blond color!

Even when he was a newborn with his hair just growing in, it was always darker.


But look at the comparison, I should have taken it in the bathroom tonight when I wanted to, but I snapped a pic of him in bed with the night vision. I am going to get a pic of it all fluffy tomorrow. But this is tonight in the dark and summer of 2007. Look at the color difference.



He no longer looks bald. It just looks like he was blond and we  shaved his head and it is growing back in. We do not get looks anymore at all. He is getting a nice tan on his head too so the sun could be lightening it. He usually wears a hat and LOTS of sunscreen but sometimes it comes off.

Tristan has clinic on Tuesday. Just vincristine in his mediport. No spinals. But pray for us because it has been a long time since we went last and I have this feeling it will not be pretty again.

I am so happy for you and your family for all that the Lord has done for you.

I have to comment on the change in hair topic. My cousin had to go through chemo when she was about 6 years old. She had pin straight, thin, dark blond hair before chemo. After chemo, and ever since her hair has been super thick dark reddish brown and very tight curls. So I would say it can definately change.

I am a bad blogger friend! It's been a long time since I've visited your blog. Your son's hair looks wonderful! My mom's hair came back in fuller and more beautiful after her chemo from breast cancer.

I scrolled down to a few posts I've missed. Your baby bump is pretty darned cute! Looks like you've completed more than half of your pregnancy according to your cute pregnancy counter on your blog. That's the neatest thing I've ever seen!

Lots of blessings to you and your sweet family.

Hugs,
Karla
