To be petty, I still can't believe that I finished full chemo late Spring of '16 and my hair is still sparse...and my fingernails are crap too. Those are SOME drugs! I got anemia, a blood clot, a transfusion, a wound for which I needed hyperbaric oxygen treatment, COPD, high blood pressure, bursitis, anxiety and depression!

But as they say - I'm still here.

There’s none on my neck. I was forced to grow a Chuck Todd goatee.
