Steel Magnolias

Did any of you ever see the movie Steel Magnolias? There was this scene in the movie where Shirley Mclaine's dog is barking and running around and he had lost most of his hair. He had chunks of it falling out and he looked like a patchwork of fur. Well, I officially look like that dog. I only have patches of hair left on my head and it looks a little disturbing. I told Christian I felt like the Terminator when he is blown up and half of his head is missing or a version of Teri Hatcher in Spy Kids after she catches on fire. I do not use these comparisons in a depressing way, just a visual perspective of how crazy it is to watch your hair disappear from your head. I had to have another biopsy and mammogram yesterday and today. I swear it is just new forms of some kind of medieval torture device. The biopsy was ultrasound guided and I was able to watch the needle go in and remove bits of flesh. Then they put you in the squishy machine(mammogram) and take pictures of where they have just removed your flesh. Gross stuff, but the nurses are really nice and cheery. I guess they have to be since they deal with women parts all day. Can you imagine what they see? All shapes, sizes, and colors, to be manipulated by their squishy machines. For those of you who have had a mammogram it really is quite astounding how they can smash, contort, and compress all that stuff while smiling and saying, "Hold your breath."
