My mom just emailed me these pictures. Brought back a lot of memories.
This is me on Father's Day, 2006, getting my hair cut off in preparation for my surgery the next day. I asked my friend Wendy to give me a haircut that matched Dustin's, so she did. We went to lunch at MiRanchito with my family (parents and siblings included) right after. It was really weird to have such short hair!
And this is what I looked like right after my surgery. I have never seen either of these pictures until tonight, and forgot that I had a black eye (and swollen face).
I look so sad!
I'm glad my mom took these pictures. It's crazy to think I went through all of this and here I am today, with hair past the middle of my back and doing well. I'm very grateful for all of it!
