Observations, the hair is not being burned off.  It is falling out in clumps like it did the first time.  But just 3 cm around the graft.  So the extreme pain when I touched my scalp was just like before.  Feels like it is being pulled out by the roots.  Anyway, I had a good cry.  Expected, but still shocking.  Lost my sideburn for now.  I have aloe on the skin now and everyday twice a day.  Hump day, 3 weeks and 2 days left. 
Another observation, do you realize how much your skin moves, how supple and sometimes the harder you rub it the better it feels, well my forehead is something else, literally.  It hurts to yawn, its hurts to sneeze,  both actions make movement in your forehead and this does not move.  (I dont think I want it to move!)  I think I mentioned the muscle over my left eye was cut or damaged so I cannot raise that brow at all. 
Another thing, my appetite for bad food has remained and so has the 25 pounds I gained while on chemo with steriods.  I have no excuse now. Time for some serious change in the way I eat.  Need to get all organic, more raw vegis and fruits and then the weight will drop off and I will be healthier. 
Oh this dog is filled with mischief!  She pees and shits in the house at night when I work 2 sessions.  It usually looks like a hurricane hit the inside of the house.  I need to find a way to hook up a camera, perferably from my computer, and record what happens when we are away.
