I could try to be tough, but honestly this week sucked! Physically I feel fine, I really can't complain. The day after my second treatment I lost my hair. It just fell out in locks and all over my pillow so I had Ryan shave it. Odd emotions experienced when you have your husband shave your head bald! Hunter said I look like Kyle. (Things could be worse) My eyebrows are starting to go!! I am going to be a Q-ball! Tomorrow is the first day back at school without hair, it will be nice to get it over with. Positive side: thanks to all for the support. It is wonderful to hear from relatives and friends. I have a wonderful ward, neighborhood and family. I have some beautiful hats and scarves thanks to my sister-in-laws and I get plenty of rest thanks to my husband and family. I will try to post a before and after pictures.

Ang, you are beautiful inside and out and we think you are amazing! We love you and hope you know we are always down the street if you need anything!
So sorry about this week. I can't imagine all of the emotions you must be feeling. You are an amazingly tough person!! Love you!
I love that family picture on top. That is so cute. It was fun talking to you the other day. I can't wait to see you guys this summer!
Angie, this is Krista "Hansen" from High School. My sister ran across your blog and called me! My thoughts have been with you and I know you will pull through this. My family has been so concerned for you and your adorable and beautiful family. If you still can't put a face with my name. Look at our blog. thegehmclan.blogspot.com
Good luck over the next few weeks!!
Hi Angie, man I would shave my head in a heart beat if I could look like Kyle! You must be beautiful! love you, Aunt Jan
Great family picture. You are a beautiful and amazing person Ang, and we all wish we could look half as good as you do even without your hair! Thanks for sharing your experience and you know we too are just up the street if you need anything.
You have certainly been in my thoughts and prayers in the last few weeks. I cannot drive by your street without thinking about you and am always tempted to stop and say hello. You truly are beautiful and are someone that I have looked up to since High School. Thanks for sharing your experiences with the rest of us through your blog. It is nice to get updates! The family pictures are great - your kids are darling but man your oldest boy is a heartbreaker! Good luck in the coming weeks. Renee
Ang,
Lisa gave me the link to your blog. I just want you to know how much our entire family loves you!
I can't imagine what you are going through, but I really admire you for being open about it.
Our family has you in our prayers and thoughts constantly! We Love you Ang!

Oh yeah, I agree with the other comments, if anyone can pull of no hair it would be you---you are so beautiful!
Girl, you are one of the most amazing people I know, truly. Hang in there. You and your awesome attitude will get you through not having your hair and the good news is...it will grow back. Please call if you need ANYTHING!!!
Ang, It was great to see you the other day. I have always thought you were a beautiful thing but let me tell you how I told Eric. The no hair thing, as hard as it is for you, really works for you. You looked gorgeous both with the ball cap and then the cute hat you had at the game. It totally brings out your eyes and seriously you look amazing. I am sorry you had such a bad week. I could only imagine the emotions you went through with the hair. I love the family pic! I saw Rylen at the game and I still get jealous of her and her "game." She looked awesome with her bball pants and beany!!! Hang in there!
Angie-
I saw the special they did on you during the baseball game that was televised on KBYU and learned about your blog (I did need a little extra help from Ryan to actually find it because apparently I've been spelling "get busy living" wrong all of these years!). It is nice to see updates on how you are doing. I have thought about you a lot since I heard about the diagnosis. I'm sure this has been very difficult to go through. I remember watching my dad go through chemo and I can't even imagine what it's like. I also have a neice in Minnesota that is 6 who just had a bone marrow transplant (she has severe aplastic anemia) and is currently doing chemo. She is currently sporting the same hair style as you. You are such a strong person. You deal with things and never complain when I know you don't feel well. You deserve all of the support you are receiving. That must have been an amazing experience with the "locks of love" at Lehi. Hearing things like that truly make me miss teaching and coaching even more than I already do. I look up to you and Ryan in so many ways. You have both taught me so many things. I wish you the best with the remaining treatments and look forward to more updates.
Take care and get some rest.
Ang...I am thinking about you constantly. Hang in there. Love you, Lisa
Angie,
You are the best! Ever since you let me drive your car when I was only 15(maybe even 14yrs old) I thought you were the greatest! You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. If there is anyone who can fight this it would be you. I just want you to know I love you and think about you often. Your family picture is darling. Best of luck with these next weeks. Love ya Ang
Love, Karrie(Henry)Surrage
