Beanford's World: It takes 19 days!!

It takes 19 days before Dustin goes bald after his first dose of Spidey Juices. After his first dose we did notice his hair coming out, especially when he was in the shower.....it was just washing away! It didn't look bad, he was just a little thinner on the top. After his second treatment, it was really coming out. If you ran your hands through his hair, you would have a handful of hair. He had a few bald spots on top, but he still had a lot of hair in the back and on the sides. He was pulling it out on purpose, getting a fistful of hair and yelling at the boys, "Look what you are doing to me, you two are making my hair fall out!" Of course they are convinced he his crazy. We had heard about people complaining that their hair hurt during chemo. I told Dust this was not something people usually complained about so it was news to me. After the second dose he understood what they were talking about. He says it feels like someone is pulling out your hair one by one and laying his head down on his pillow really hurts. When he woke up yesterday he said there was so much hair on his pillow and on his side of the bed we needed to get the shop-vac out of storage. He finally had had enough and decided yesterday to shave it off. So while at my parents last night he gave his beard trimmer to the boys and told them to shave it off!! At first they thought he was kidding, but once they knew he was serious the shaving began! They had a blast with it. They tried to give him a mohawk, but it was a little uneven. Instead of being down the center it was over his right eye.

When we were getting ready for bed last night, Dustin took his beanie off of his head, Beanford looked at him like "Who are you and what have you done to my daddy?" Bean would not go to bed, he just sat there looking at Dust for about 5 minutes then he laid on him and just stared at him. Usually Bean goes straight to bed and doesn't pay any attention to us, he just goes to bed, but he would not stop staring at Dustin. Crazy dog!

Enjoy some pictures from last night.
