Breast cancer vs Robins Beers (btw...you look great!)
I had the chemo again Friday and didn’t hardly sleep at all that night. Every time I moved my scalp hurt. Saturday night as I took a bath and ran my hands through my hair... it was just like all my follicles decided to give it up at once. There were only a few isolated clumps left to shave. Once it came out though, I felt so much better, like something unhealthy had been purged from the system. Then I slept for 10 and 1/2 hours throughout the night and more. So here’s the official bald photo which was taken this morning. Feel free to share it with the town.
Other than being bald I am feeling remarkably well, better than after the first treatment (Of course, not having fires burning all around the county probably helps.)

Diversionary Theatre’s new production will celebrate the 25th Anniversary of this milestone event. Tim Irving will direct, and Matthew Weeden will play Arnold Beckoff, the role Harvey Fierstein wrote for himself. Torch Song Trilogy premiered on Broadway in June 1982, and went on to win the Tony Award for Best Play for that season, and a Tony Award for Best Actor in a Play for Mr. Fierstein. As much a reflection of the importance of family and love, Torch Song Trilogy is hailed as a classic comedy in Gay Theater. Don’t miss it.
