An Uncanny Resemblance?

Hi Friends,
Many thanks to Ruth, Catherine's sister-in-law, for sending us a Shaggy Chia Pet (anonymously) after we posted the Chia photos. Shaggy is now growing hair on the kitchen windowsill and is quickly catching up to me. Catherine gave my my first trim yesterday (not a lot of hair, but a bit of a clean up). Julie took that hair with her yesterday as she left for Italy for the March break. She will scatter that new hair on Lake Como, where Giselle placed my old hair in the fall. Catherine and I won't be able to get to Italy this year as we had hoped, but I'm really glad Julie is able to make the trip.
Not much to report today. Four weeks are now over, and only six more treatments left. My left rotator cuff began yelling this week from the treatments (the surgeon said this might happen), so I was in to the physiotherapist again yesterday; she did some heavy-duty stretching with me, gave me homework stretches and already it feels better. With only six treatments to go I'm confident I'll get through it ok.
This afternoon I'm watching the news coverage on Japan and feeling overwhelmed by the devastation. I feel incredibly fortunate to be sitting here in my home with Catherine, sipping tea, safe and warm.
Love,
Kip
