I had long slightly wavy dark brown hair, pre chemo. When it came back it was kinky like bozo the clown and snow white. By the time I was 40 it was grey and silver and curly in places but straight in others. I left it grey but I perm it so that it at least matches. Like you I am very grateful for hair. Now if I could only dance like Christopher Walken. @loribmt .

I still have a schoolgirl crush on Christopher Walken. When I was going through all my chemo treatments my IV cart was called Christopher so when I’d walk daily around the hospital pushing the IV I was “Walken with Chris”. My nurses even put his pic on my IV trolley. 😂. That’s why it’s such a hoot when my hair started growing in that it looked so much like his!! Here’s a pic of my IV cart at Mayo. And also a link to one of my all time favorite Christopher Walken dances…
