Holes in My Head!


Jeff decided to get me a gift card to have my ears pierced for Christmas this year. I had them pierced two different times as a teenager and let them grow shut both times. I apparently have a sensitivity to the nickel that is in most earrings and infection has always been a problem in the past. Over the years I have thought about getting my ears re-pierced but didn't because I was afraid of more problems. I almost did a couple of years ago when I went with Zach to get his ear pierced, but I got to feeling a little woozy after watching him get his done! I really hate needles or the thought of anything that will hurt.

Last year during my cancer treatments, I really wished that I had pierced ears; just something to make me feel a little more feminine when I was walking around bald. So, thanks to Jeff, on New Year's Day I got a couple more holes in my head! I've just been wearing earrings (other than the studs) for a couple of days and this morning I laughed when I realized that I was asking my SON for advice on caring for my ears!
