25 November, 2006 "FALLOUT"


I guess it's to be expected, but this morning as I was getting ready to take my shower, I was looking in the mirror at my mustache thinking I might trim it up a little bit since it was starting to hang down over my lip. I noticed a couple hairs just kind of sitting there as if they were an extra half inch longer than the rest. I pulled at them and started examining my mustache more closely and found out if I grab a finger full of hairs, I can pull them right out....I started tugging on my mustache and hairs pull out with ease. I then did the same with the hair on my head, and same thing.
To look at me now, you wouldn't be able to tell anything different than normal, but after experimenting a little, I can't pull not hunks yet, but can pull out numerous strands of hair out of my head and mustache with ease. Tried pulling some chest hairs and other hair on my body, but it that hasn't started yet. I noticed about 7 hairs on my deodorant stick after applying it.
So I guess the hair falling out thing is upon me.. I was hoping that I wouldn't be experiencing this aspect, but NOT! This is going to suck.
The picture was taken this morning just for documentation purposes..No noticeable change yet. More to follow.

Dave,

I just received this link from Gene Schanzmeyer, and wanted to post that my thoughts and prayers are with you during this trying time in your life. You probably don't remember me, but nonetheless, I wanted to extend my best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Regards and God Bless,

Dave,
I think I am not to smart on this blog thing. I posted to the 23 Nov posting rather than today's posting. You will have to go back to Thanksgiving Day posting to read my comment. I am learning.

Dave,

Hair grows back! Don't sweat it. And when it does, don't worry, I'll still be more gray!!

David,
I'm not a good blogger but I wanted you to know that Phyllis and I are thinking of you every day and this will pass. I agree with Scott, the hair will grow back but I don't think it will be grayer, it may be blonde and you will have to get a surf board and do the California thing. Hang in there lad.

Dave-
Happy turkey day old man. I know it is a couple of days late but what can I say. You know, starting to lose your hair now is not that bad since you would have probably lost it in a couple of years anyway. Wasn't Moses bald around this age as well? You do remember when he parted the seas right. Call or send an e-mail if you need someone to make rag on. Remember I still wear tights.
Much Love
