Laura ...

I had longer hair when I was first dx'd last year (Apr 07) .. and couldn't raise my arms in the shower to wash my head! so I had a dramatic hair cut - which I wasn't happy about ...

and now, when I shower (everyday - as long as I have shower-access) I wash my hair - but my arms tire out fast no matter what ...

when I color my hair, I do have to 'gear myself up' to kneel next to the tub - have everything close by to wash, rinse, condition and dry ... because then I'm sorta stuck kneeling ... so I have to prepare myself and stay calm without trying to do anything too fast - or I'll get dizzy leaning over or raising my head or just getting up ...

I'm not giving up - just pre-planning that I know I have to go slow to continue do the things I enjoy to do on my own yet ...

**gotta wash that grey right outta my hair**
