I was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer in December 2005. I spent 2006 getting surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. In August 2007, my cancer came back. In February 2008, I learned the cancer had spread to my brain, liver, lungs, and bones. I live in Singapore with my husband Tony, daughter Josie (born Feb. 2003), and son Toby (born July 2005). Thanks to all of you who are still reading and commenting on my blog.

Bald Head Problems
Went to a dermatologist to find out why my head is covered with little red dots. He said it was a fungal infection because I’ve been using moisturizers and sunscreen that have clogged the pores. As if being completely bald isn’t bad enough, now I’ve got fungus growing on my head. I heard about a guy who had leukemia, got chemo, lost his hair, then got skin cancer on his bare naked head. I’ve been worried about getting skin cancer on my head so I’ve been putting sunscreen on it but now I’m told I shouldn’t put any creams or lotions on it at all. Sigh.
