I'm only a week and a half into a new oral treatment for my 'ALL' and almost all my hair is gone. It was coming back in and I was getting really excited to have hair again and then wham, here we go again. I'm trying to make the best of it though...I even have cute shirts that I can wear now =] so people won't stare so much at my head haha

It's not so much the pain of treatments, scans, and transfusions that are hard its all the emotional stuff and it's killing me. I'm limited to what I can go out and do and I'm less willing to want to go out and do things even when I can. My sweet 16 is in two days and I have a big party planned but I'm not even feeling up to that.

People say to try and do things you really love but sometimes for cancer patients or other patients who are limited to doing things that just doesnt work out. I'm a figure skater and thats something I love but can't do right now. Ive gone through reading 4 books in the last 2 days and feel like I'm running out of things to do to keep my mind off treatment and everything else...any ideas? Something that clams you down but isnt so boring. lol
