We knew this would happen but not when. So, I’m getting bald.
When me and Mom were folding laundry I realized if my hair is falling out, the chemo is killing the fast growing cells. So,if there is any cancer left in my body it will be gone. And, the chemo is working!
Vac* is a vacuum and likes to suck up cancer and represents my chemo treatment. Cyclo is a cyclops in the form of a hydraclops and likes to scare away the cancer, and is one of my chemo treatments as well.
*VAC is an acronym for the chemotherapy medicine I am receiving. Cyclo is one of the 3, and it’s the one that takes the longest to get through my port and seems to be the strongest.
Glad to hear the “critters” are doing their job.
We are praying for you sweet girl! We love your drawings!
Thank goodness for Vac and Cyclo – glad they are doing their jobs! You explain things so well. You are such a strong kid. Love you! Aunt Pegg

Hi it me Sophia I hope you are doing great π
Hi Joanna! I’m so glad your medicines are working so quickly. When I was 23, I also lost my hair when I was very sick. Sometimes it made me sad, but I’ll tell you the good part- when my hair grew back and it was short and curly, I LOVED it.
You are strong, smart and brave! Goodbye terrible cancer!
Yay! Iβm glad itβs working π
You are strong and courageous, Joanna! And yes, the chemo is doing it’s job!π¦ΈββοΈππ
I can tell you from experience bald is not bad. Just less work in the morning. You are such a strong young lady!
You are AMAZING no matter what!!! You are brave, intelligent and most importantly you love God. Hair loss is one of those blecky side effects. Just know that you are loved because of your perfect, kind, loving heart!!
Cyclo and you make a great team. Both strong and determined! Hugs!
Glad they’re doing their job even if your head may be a little bit chilly!
Thank you Joanna for sharing your journey, I appreciate your strong will to beat this cancer. Keep fighting strong girl.
We are all praying for you.
You will have a logs that maybe you can make into a book to help other children fighting cancer. You are an inspiration.
love Aunt Ceil
Sound like it is doing the job that needs done.ππ

You are so smart & exactly right! Cancer cells are no match for VAC. Itβs doing itβs job so well itβs getting those hair cells too. Itβs a good thing that being bald is fierce & cool & beautiful, so you are gonna rock this!!!!
