Gubba Gubs

Tiny & small on the outside but so wise beyond his years.

He handled today better than most adults would have. He assisted with body stickers, cords, buttons & sat so still you would have thought he was frozen in time.

To watch him would be to watch a routine visit - just one of 100 that he had done in his short 21 months of life, certainly not the first & only.

He is my hero & I so longed to be in his mind this morning - only happy to help & explore the machines around him - unknowing the life changing results they can deliver.

Fast Forward 1 hour

He plays at the park. Learning steps of bravery along the slide, climbing endlessly & giggling nonstop.

He is my little boy again.

Dear Legs

Please keep kicking as hard as you can to keep my head above water this week.

All around you do an amazing job but I feel you growing weary and weak. It might have something to do with the 100 lb weights that have been strapped on to you but just be strong like I know you can be.

Just a few more days & I promise it will all be better.

Love Me

GREEN STATUS

Project go, on task, no risk identified. BOO-YA

I have worked my ass off for months to get to you & I reached you this week.

My white horse in the stable, my cape long & wavy.

I had you for 48 hours and now you are gone.

Gone to this place of creepy yellow, implying terms like "caution" & "risk" grrrr.

F-You yellow status. You may have won the battle but not the war. I will hunt you down & I will win.

Everyone knows my favorite color is green.

How about you just stay & grow

For years when I take a shower I always lose a little hair during the washing process. No big deal, it's only hair & I have always thought it was my body's way of making room for new growth.

Well as the months have past I have noticed or actually finally admitted that things have started to get out of hand in the hair loss department. The icing on the cake came 2 days ago when my super observant husband sat me down and asked it was normal to lose as much hair as I do on a daily basis. This of course was quickly followed by a comment that I would be hot bald but none the less the casting of a stone.

So now I'm wondering all these things like am I deficient in a certain vitamin, am I not eating the right foods, is yoga cleansing my body to the point of hairlessness?

Then the other side of female questioning...like what would I look like bald? I have a face for hats & scarfs so bonus there. My go-to quality has always been my baby blues so I feel they could carry some extra weight to offset the burden of no hair. However, I am slightly fair skinned...or actually as pasty white as they come and no hair would be an issue. My white ass head would 1- glow like beacon in the dead of night & 2- would last 35 seconds in the AZ sun.

The research continues. I'm interested to see what I will learn to stop the team from jumping ship.
