I don't usually bring old posts back to life, but I was looking for a place to tell my little story, and found this amazing thread. I think Celt's story really could use a "re-visit", so I will add my story to this thread...
When I was 30, my father died of cancer. He was 54. The weird thing is that he had undergone intense radiation to his head to reduce the size of the inoperable tumors that had invaded his brain. This was a "secondary" cancer, and the primary source took longer to find. When they found the source, he was too weak for chemo. As he waited a few more months to die, his hair grew back. Even though his hair was short, he died with more hair than I had at the time. He was not meant to be bald, I guess. My uncle (Dad's brother) had a hard time losing my Dad, then his wife got breast cancer a few years later. My Uncle did have some thinning in his hair, but in his late 50's that is not uncommon. He shaved his head when my Aunt went through chemo, and has been shaving his head ever since. These things inspired me to not worry about my balding and take action.

What actions have you taken as a result of these experiences?
