I'll never forget seeing my dad without a mustache. 27years he had had it on his face, until Chemo took it off. I think that's when it finally hit me that he had Cancer, even though I had known the facts for months!
My old man is 6 years past it, the mustache is back and so is his energy. I hope your mom fares as good as my Dad. Your doing great spending time with her during this tough time!
I looked after a baby that had brain cancer and watched as all his hair fell out. He had one eyelash that hung on for all 6 months of chemo. Just as they gave him the all clear, the last the eyelash fell out. Then we had the joy of being able to watch all his hair grow back.
I hope you get to experience watching it grow back as well.

Oncology nurse of 8 years here, we always called those survivor hairs. Your mother is a beautiful woman and may her battle be victorious.
