update

so, i have had this gowth thing on my scalp
had it in Fort Wayne prior to 2001
anyway, it comes & goes
last time it happened i was told to
stop dyeing the hair
so when i noticed them again
i stopped dyeing the hair
as the hair grew out i had ROOT ISSUES
so, the hair kept getting cut
it's why the hair got SHORT
the gowths make the scalp ITCHY

so,

on tue i went to see the dermatologist

the technical name is

Sebborihic Keratoses

one on the scalp had

to be removed

the others of which

there are numerous

several on the scalp,

a few on the face & chest

were left alone to see IF

they get better with treatment

also had a mole cut off my chest

so anyways ..

the one on the scalp HURTS

the mole is covered with a

band-aid & that itches

but where the one was in the scalp

i now have a big bald spot

we are hopin' the hair comes back

for the scalp i am using

Neutrogena Triple Moisture

shampoo & conditioner

did't use them when i overnited

in New Orleans thu nite &

my scalp got ITCHY

was told to use antibacterial Cetophil soap

to correct the follicular problems

acne type of breakouts

and CeraVe lotion for the

itchyness on my legs & body

i quit doing overnites because it could be the

different water sources that are causing

some of the problems

i was feeling better after one day of switch

in hygeinc products

so, one problem down

hopin' another doesn't spring up

in it's place

gonna get off to knit

Get your Flag Ready

Get YOUR FLAG READY
Please join us in this FLY THE FLAG campaign and

PLEASE forward this Email immediately to everyone in your address book

asking them to also forward it

We have a little less than one week and counting

to get the word out all across this great land and

into every community in the United States of America.

If you forward this email to least 11 people and each of

those people do the same ... you get the idea.

THE PROGRAM:

On Thursday, September 11th, 2008,

an American flag should be displayed outside every home,

apartment, office, and store in the United States.

Every individual should make it their duty to

display an American flag on this

seventh anniversary of one our country's worst tragedies.

We do this honor of those who lost their lives on 9/11,

their families, friends and loved ones who continue

to endure the pain, and those who today are fighting

at home and abroad to preserve our cherished freedoms.

In the days, weeks and months following 9/11,

our country was bathed in American flags as

citizens mourned the incredible losses and stood

shoulder-to-shoulder against terrorism.

Sadly, those flags have all but disappeared.

Our patriotism pulled us through some tough

times and it shouldn't take another attack

to galvanize us in solidarity.

Our American flag is the fabric of our country

and together we can prevail over terrorism of all kinds

Action Plan:

So, here's what we need you to do ..

(1) Forward this email to everyone you know (at least 11 people).

Please don't be the one to break this chain.

Take a moment to think back to how you felt on 9/11

and let those sentiments guide you.

(2) Fly an American flag of any size on 9/11.

Honestly, Americans should fly the flag year-round,

but if you don't, then at least

make it a priority on this day.

Thank you for your participation.

God Bless You and God Bless America!
