The last week we've started getting a lot of comments about this little girl's hair. Friday in Clinic, two different people said, "Hey, Wow! Emma, look at your hair. You've still got so much hair this far into cancer treatment. That's pretty great, right?"
When we were in patient, we got one nurse that we had during our diagnosis week. She was not the only one to be impressed that Emma is almost to delayed intensification and still has hair.
This grainy shot of the top of her head came from yesterday's "game" wherein the kids got the camera and took about 45 pictures of toys and of Caleb crawling. She's thinning out, but she still does have her hair.
We met a girl who lost hers at 3 weeks. We met a boy who lost his at 7 months. Next week we'll be 4 months... but I suspect we'll probably get to using Emma's fabulous hat collection with regularity before much more time passes.
