My survivor sister Laura appeared on CNN recently to discuss the future of cancer research funding in the wake of the USADA report on Lance Armstrong and his resignation as chairman of Livestrong.
Laura, who finished treatment earlier this month (Go, Laura!), also writes about the experience over at her great blog, thelymphomaletters.com.

Hair!
A lot of my survivor sisters who are undergoing chemo ask me how long it’ll take their hair to grow back. Doctors say that the answer varies from woman to woman but after I finished chemo in August, I started taking photos of my hair each week to chart its progress of re-growth. The video above is three months of hair growth condensed into just over a minute – and I hope it inspires those of you who are fighting and serves as a reminder that there is light – and, yes, some hair follicles, too – at the end of the long, dark tunnel that is chemo.
