Gray matter

This is my head. Or the very top of it, anyway. See all the "gray matter?" Turns out there's a lot more gray on top than there is inside, at least for a while. I wrote about it in a December 17 post.


 
















I just thought it was kind of funny to have all this new gray matter on top when the chemo that caused me to lose my hair also caused the gray matter in my brain to shrink a 'lil bit. (The link takes you to a Wikipedia page. Scroll down to the research section to read about it.)

So, no earth-shattering insight, no pontificating. Just a little Thursday gray matter humor. (Well, in my "limited" capacity, I think it's funny, anyway!)
