Sproketta i say hot pink is the way to go. Personally i figure since im going grey might as well have fun with it and go down fighting forget aging gracefully lol

@sprocketta So glad to see you back, and to hear your update! Beyond glad and grateful they found the tumor and were able to remove it, and it wasn't cancerous! Good to see that fan come in handy!!

[sprocketta]

@Samtian Beyond glad I have people like YOU in my life. I was able to pick up from home some of the gratis to try. 😏

[Tarabotti]

So glad that you are still here with us! I'm glad that your mass was non cancerous and safely removed- that must have been a scary time!

Enjoy your goodies and especially that fan. Often it's the little things that can mean so much. Don't push yourself to hard- I know that you want to get back to your 'old self' as soon as possible but take it nice and slow. Be gentle with yourself and don't get frustrated with set backs. You have a lot of people supporting you - from your family and friends, your doctors and here in the Sephora community. Stay strong!

[sprocketta]

Thanks @Tarabotti such kind words. I am beyond fortunate. The work is reasonable. And the support.

@sprocketta  Oh how I have missed your beautiful face!! I am so happy to hear you are doing good! I can’t wait to see your pink hair!!! 

[sprocketta]

@ather Lady, it’s good to see you! Hoping to be less MIA. Just posting reminded me I need to be back. I’ll be off work a bit more than another 2 months. Working on recovery and self-care which includes kindness and beauty products. I hope life is positive on your end.

[curlychiquita]

You look gorgeous, @sprocketta! I'm sorry you've been through so much! I'm happy it ending, though; also that the fan brings you joy. ❤️😘

[sprocketta]

@curlychiquita Kind of you to say. Better tomorrow with bright pink hair! The road to recovery continues but knowing I am fortunate keeps me moving along. People reaching out here helps too. 😄

[Sunnysmom]

I’m so glad you’re getting the love and care you need @sprocketta and are back in Chicago. Pink hair and fun treats from this gratis will hopefully lighten your summer! That little fan is such a bonus, glad you have it! Happy you’re hanging out with us as you can. Continued healing to you! 💞

[sprocketta]

@Sunnysmom good decisions that have really benefited me. Beauty products sure are bringing joy amidst all. My morning routine really extended with side effects and keeping sane and enjoyment. My heart is dragging with the Tatcha Indigo Cream (not overnight repair) OOS until end of year at best. That’s a soothing step for sure. Of course lipstick! I hope all is well on your end.

😊Hey, @sprocketta , 

You are right, you are a Phoenix!  You were being looked after, for sure.  Moving back to your home state, and near your parents again, in time to be able to receive great medical care when needed, that's impressive! 

Your new haircut looks Cool (and cooler!)  Hot pink hair will be wild!  You wore hot pink well, years ago.  That's a cute photo.  I'm glad that you are being so well cared for during your recovery!  Thank you to everyone who helped you through all of this!   Keep taking good care of yourself and enjoying life!  It's so great to hear from you again!

What a useful gift that cute little fan turned out to be!   

[sprocketta]

@tsavorite It’s funny the way the world looks out for you. It was a good decision to come home generally and with the unexpected that turned up. There are good people in the world. Family and friends who provide the support (you included!), medical team, other people on board. My dog counts too.

[tsavorite]

@sprocketta ,

I'm so glad for you that you are seeing the positives in this situation!  Isn't it reassuring that there are good people in the world?

I'm sure the love and support of your dog is great for you.  Pepper? 🐕

[danielledanielle]

Welcome back (even for a quick bit) and happy recovery @sprocketta 

[sprocketta]

@danielledanielle Thanks! I get pretty busy with the work to get recovered but hoping to be more active on BIC.

[Titian06]

@sprocketta - I'm so sorry to hear about your mass.  I'm glad it could be removed and it was benign!  I can empathize.  I had surgery for a mass in my head 19 years ago.  I haven't had any ill effects from the surgery.  Sending positive vibes ~~~ your way!  (((HUG))) ❤😘❤

[Sunnysmom]

Oh no @Titian06 , I’m so grateful you’re ok too ! 🤗🥰
