and i got my FIRST haircut!
i found a place in downtown san francisco that offers a "welcome back" program for people who have gone through chemo - 3 free services post chemo. i had the sweetest 23-year old hairstylist. she complimented me on my hair. asked me about my cancer story then paused part way through the cut...and said..."hey, how are you feeling? this cut is a really big deal." she planned out my whole "grow back" strategy. then at the end she asked for a hug.
THEN i went to my three-times weekly crossfit class. had a good workout. and then coach kelly told everyone to get together for a picture, "with meghan kearney in the front!" the reason for our photo?: my very first haircut since finishing chemo...can you see the tears welling up in my eyes? something about the announcement hit me hard.
(and check out the perfect posing by corrine and catherine to my left.)
