I was watching the Today Show this morning and they were interviewing Tammy Faye (formerly Baker) about a documentary that is coming out following her (2nd) battle with colon cancer last year. She was at one point Stage 4 which had spread to her lungs and had employed both radiation & chemo to fight the cancer. So, understandably, pretty aggressive stuff.
Matt Lauer pointed out that incredibly, Tammy didn't lose any of her hair which the majority of people do as a side effect of the chemo. Tammy replied with a laugh, "no, but I lost my eyelashes." She also added she was shocked that even her *family members* recognized her.
She has been diagnosed with cancer for a *third* time in the past month or so (tumor on her spine) and has done the radiation and will begin the chemo again in August. I send out my prayers and good thoughts for The Lady with the Famous Eyelashes.
