If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one there to hear it, does it still make sound?

If hair falls out in the shower and I can't hear it, does it still make me bald?

If hair falls out in the shower and why yes, that does make me bald, does that make it so I can't savor the sunrise?

Ummm, I don't think so. The sunrise is amazing, whether or not I have hair, whether or not I have chemo, whether or not I have cancer. The river is still as glossy, the laughter with friends works its chemistry, putting in a full day's work is no less meaningful, good books are just as enjoyable. It is just as awesome to put my body in motion walking or kayaking.

Okay, the tastebuds are temporarily shot, but all of life's other pleasures are there to be wallowed in.

Sunrise. Coming daily to a venue near you.
