The bald head gets a lot of attention. What should be a 1 hour shopping trip turned into 4 hours, because so many people stop to ask about what I am, clearly, going through.
If you know me, then you know that I am extremely shy...just kidding. I will talk to a rock. But seriously, I am thrilled to share my story. I have met so many people that want to talk to me about their battle with cancer. They want to tell me that they are proud that I don't cover my head. They want someone to tell them that they are going to be o.k. too. They want to show me their support. There seems to be a bond between cancer patients.
I try so hard to lift them up. The "C" word scares the heck out of a lot of people.
I keep playing the very wise words of my husband over and over in my head. There was a time in my life that I was upset about something or the other. He asked me, "where is all this faith that you say you have?" Wow! I do talk about my faith in God. I have faith that he is there for me. I pray to him about my troubles, among other things. Then why am I crying about it? Where is my faith?
After he said that to me, I have always remembered how I felt when he made me realize that I talked the talk, but I was not walking the walk.
