Cancer Patient Attempts to Sell Bald Head
Last year, a young man in cancer treatment attempted to sell ad space on his bald head on eBay, but was told by eBay to take the ad down.

According to The Cancer Blog, 20-year-old David Mise was trying to raise money to pay some bills.

NoHairDay
This is a very cool project: photos of three women, Debbie Dorsey, Carol Potoff, and Libby Levenson, who became friends while in cancer treatment. Lots of bald shots. Go to: NoHairDay

Be Prepared: Hair With a Mind of Its Own
Now that Liz, who writes As the Tumor Turns, is done with treatment, she's chronicling her hair growth with the Monday Morning Hair report. Last week it was a "freaky little Cupie Doll ridge running along the top of my skull."

Go to her blog to see the photos, or to suggest a style solution.

Bald in the Land of Big Hair was one of my favorite books I read last year. She's a good writer.

Since I live in Texas, the home of Big Hair, I sooo could relate. Especially since I'm 5'10 and got called 'sir' all the time.

Sir? And then what did YOU say? "Uh, that would be 'ma'am'..."?

Haven't ever been to Texas, but I need to get this book.
