The young me

[Jay68442]

Tonight I was going through some old pictures and found my graduation picture. This picture was taken a little less than a year after I finished treatment. I was 18 at the time. I thought I would show you the person that I speak of when I talk about having had cancer. I know I have a few bald pictures as well but I have yet to find them. I'm pretty sure they are at my grandmother’s house. When I find them I will post them as well.

My hair before chemo was not that wavy. Man do I miss that head hair.

Jay,

As much as the years that go by increase our age in number, I have always upheld the idea that age is a state of mind and not something that can be measured physically. I may be 34, but to tell you the truth, after having dealt with cancer, I feel like I'm 25 all over again. I am sure that you are in a similar boat. Don't you forget that, Bro.

Well, you are a lot closer to 25 than a lot of us, Fed. Lucky devil. On the serious side, though, you're absolutely right: age is but a number. All I'll say is that with the passage of time, and the experience of cancer, we each hopefully become wiser and develop a better sense of self. But that doesn't mean we can't still laugh, be silly, and still enjoy life like a kid would. When we stop doing that, that's when we're really old.

You guidos and your mustaches...

It's amazing how much you look like one of my best friends from my high school days (ahem, in the late 70's).

Here is a picture of me with a wig on. The other two guys are my brothers.

Awesome pic, Jay! Do you still have that suit?
You looked great- I don't think I ever had hair.
