My hair started falling out! It's been one week and two days since I've finished chemo, so it was only a matter of time. Weird shit. I'm going to get a wig when I leave here, but while I'm in the hospital I obviously won't need one. Soon I'll be wearing bandanas though! Luckily I already have so many of them, I'll have to get Mike to wash them and bring them here.
I often hear a happy-sounding chime followed by a recording going, "Attention, attention. Code Blue! Code Blue in (floor/room)." I found out today that Code Blue is someone crashing (no longer breathing, cardiac arrest, extremely high blood pressure, etc.). I hear it every second day or so. Now I know what's happening when I hear it. Creepy. I wish the chime that accompanied it didn't sound so cheerful; it makes it even more off-putting somehow. o_O
