Well Hello again. The past few weeks I have been working on just living with less hair and this "Thing" on my head. The flesh eating treatment lasted less than a week and just made things worse so I did decided to try the antibiotic. Not happy with that but still trying it. So Far nothing..... I have had to actually fix my hair when I go somewhere which makes me feel more self confident. Another thing is with my hair as short as it is I don't have to take as long in the shower. The other night just after getting out of the shower my husband says "OO you didnnt have to rush honey" to which I replied " Umm I thought I took my time but also I just have less hair to wash and condition." Speaking of showering it is VERY hard to get used to one pump of the shampoo and not 15 pumps ... I mean really! My shampoo will last SO much longer now!!
I think I have mentioned in recent posts I help with a middle school ministry. Well shortly before I found out about this "thing" on my head I felt the calling to do a hair donation with them. I was very upset after I found out I had to cut my hair before our donation. I hesitated even still doing the donation with the girls after I had to cut my hair but I really felt like we should do it.
Last night was our donation night and I had 5 girls who were seriously going for it. Yes there were nerves and anxiety but I had 3 do it!!! The other two didnt like where their hair would be after it would be cut so they decided to wait till Christmas. Still I am so proud of all of these girls. Keep in mind the oldest girl will be a freshman in high school she is just about to be 15 and the youngest will be a 7th grader. This is a time when their whole world revolves around appearances. I am so inspired by these girls. If they are making these types of selfless decisions now their God has got a bright future in store for them! I am BLESSED to even know them.
I cant explain the feeling in knowing God is working in me and threw me threw this disease. I am still praying for healing but I also pray to be Gods true hands and feet. I dont want anything that I am doing to point to me but to HIM and non of it be be me or my idea but him and his idea. I have folded my cards I realize nor I or the doctors are in control.
