Today was the Big Day we shaved my head. My brother-in-law Bobby joined me as we had a shaving party. My friend Judy from Hailey Studios came and photographed the big event. It was terrifying but it was fun to have everyone there. Adam after I was done said, “Mommy you look beautiful!” Then he went over to uncle Eric and said he wanted to look like me. So Adam had his head shaved soon followed by Tyler. So I have three bald boys. I think we might get some looks!!! My boys are just so precious to me and I’m just in tears thinking about what they did. I feel so blessed to have such wonderful little Monkeys!

Susan you are a (in my best Bugs Life voice) “a beautiful butterfly!!!” You look awesome sis and I’m so glad you did this early on!!!
….just as i suspected……….you look FABULOUS! you are so beautiful! and those monkeys of yours….i want to just gobble them up….they’re so adorable!
i’m looking forward to having adam and luke at the park with us in the morning….i’ll have them home around 1′ish. i hope you have a restful evening and day tomorrow!
lol,
sharon
you really do look great bald! And you have a very nicely shaped head too
I want to know why your hubby didn’t join the party.

So Seriously, people think i am a skin head… I have almost been in 3 fights in the past few days! its crazy haha. you look better than I do susan, thats not hard to do though
haha love ya.
Susan! Russ! Tyler! Adam! (What’s the littlest guy’s name?)!
LOVE the new do’s!! Wow! Saw the whole slide show on the no-hair celebration..Dynamite! It’s a whole new view of the Jeide and Russell families. Previous responses were right; you have the perfect head for showing skin! Now, all you need to do is try out for the multimillion-dollar heroine of next year’s big blockbuster adventure film. (I hear the contracts add big $$ for perfect shaved heads!) You and your family should be able to fully enjoy the afternoon breezes of coastal San Diego like never before–without fuss or overheating! That is, after you choose a hat and some SPF, of course!
You have a fantastic support group, there! It was especially great to see the rest of the fam standing around, sporting grandkids in hand or sitting at nearby ‘barbur’ stations, having their hair shaved, including the little monkeys, who wear their bald smiles proudly like a mom-badge .. and to see you trustingly, tenderly grabbing your husband’s hand as he did the honors with the razor. He may not fully express how bittersweet that must have been to cut your hair himself, but we see a staunchly supportive,indomitable group of cheerleaders (and a few ruthless jokers!) making this memory into one HUGE PARTY! Well done. Wish I could have been a fly on the wall…
Much love to all! We will be here, reading each update as it comes in!
you all look awsome what a family photo!
Always the prettiest girl at the party, I love you, & admire you more than I can express.
Seriously, you make bald look good. Brittnay only wished she looked that good when she shaved her head. The boys look amazing! What a testament of love you all are. Thank you!! XOXO
Looking Good Baby!!!!! John shaved his head this morning for ya! (Actually Connor, Brady and him have been shaving their heads for months and they LOVE it!) Wish we lived closer so we could of joined the party!
You are a good looking family!
Love Krystal
See, I told you how beautiful you would be. I would have to agree with the perfectly shaped head. It was great to see everyone participating, as the kids table would say, “way to man up Bobby”, you look good to. I’m still laughing about Kevins comment concerning the “skin head” sighting, just keep smiling Kevin that will save you everytime. Love you, Susan
I told you bald is beautiful, just think of the money you’ll save on hair care products. It should be enough for another cruise! You look great! Sorry I missed it. Have a great day!
Here’s my contribution:

Hope that gives you a chuckle.
Where’s Russhole’s shaved head???

Susan, you guys rock–what smiles from your boys. I’m sure they feel great to be a part of this in a positive way. I am so glad you are not letting this small thing of no hair beat you. Even on a good day, I can’t get my hair to do what I want. And yes, as Sharon said, only you could turn this into a fashion statement. You look simply stunning!
Dear Susan,
We love everything that you did – that’s so funny! That’s what. Adam shaved his hair. That’s it. And Tyler shaved his hair and Lukie shaved his hair. Susan looks good bald, too – that’s all I want you to say. And say pool because she’ll laugh. I want her to laugh. There. Nothin’ else. Nothin’ else mom.
You all look awesome. Demi Moore comes to mind. I always wished I could do one arm push ups like GI Jane. Bald IS beautiful and no more stress about hair falling out. What great pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just as Sharon said – you still look gorgeous! How is that possible?? Your boys look so handsome, too. At least you will all have cool heads for the hot Murrieta summer =)
Bald is BEAUTIFUL! I am inspired by all of your support… Susan, YOU are blessing us all through this experience. Thank you for your courage!
Much Love,
HOT, HOT, HOT! I love it! You look fantastic, your kids look so cute, but why does your husband still have hair? (am I allowed to say that even though I don’t know him that well??) I am so impressed to see so many people shaved with you. It was good to see you smiling so much. Rock on!
Your beautiful face stands out even more now. I love all of the pictures. I don’t even want to think about what I would look like bald-I think I have some ugly moles under my hair! I am so sorry about all of your pain. I think about you many times a day everyday. I wish I could take some of your pain. I love you and hope that the treatments gets better with time. Miss and love you, Kelli
Susan you look great! Why didn’t Cristina shave her head??? Probably cause she was affraid her head wouldn’t be as perfectly shaped as yours!!! Your family looks like they belong bald…well maybe not Ryan!
AWESOME! You looked great as a punk girl with the mohawk. You should go shopping at Hot Topic and try that look out for awhile! I told you you’d look beautiful! You know your kids wouldn’t lie! Your smile and eyes are the best thing on that pretty little head of yours anyway! Love ya Susie!
Sus,
I LOVE it! You are incredible and I am so proud to call you my friend. Take control and don’t let the chemo win! GREAT JOB! I am so proud of the boys in supporting you, they are wonderful young little men. A tribute to your wonderful mothering.
I have been out of touch while I pondered the important things in life. You have shown me what truly matters in life. Family, Health and Friends. I a have been ignoring them all and you have motivated me to choose to live my life again. We are putting the business on hold until it can been done with out impacting the truly important things in life. I am so blessed I have you. You have saved me and my family and I am eternally grateful to you.
I hope we can stop by soon, just let me know.
All my love, XOXOXO
Like my darling son said earlier – you look great!
I mean it! People aren’t just complimenting you to make you feel good, you look amazing! Only Susan could pull of the bald thing and look so hot!!! Way to go, girl.
Keep workin’ toward that positive attitude.
Like Michelle said, you have taught us all so many important lessons about life – thank you so much for that!
Tanya
You are bringing the Sinead O’connor Look Back(singer who was a hit in the 80’s I beleive)! Bald looks good on you! Now you can really see your beautiful face! Thanks for all of the pictures it makes me feel a part of it! HUGS!!! Carrie
Susan,
I can’t believe how your posts have touched me today. You are an inspiration. I know that you will win this and what a story you will tell your grandkids.
I have access to some great materials, do you want to get together and make some head wraps for those days you will be in the sun alot? I would hate for that beautiful head to get too much sun. LMK
Susan –
I just wanted to tell you that when I saw you this afternoon, with your stylish outfit and head scarf, you looked STUNNING. Seriously people. She looked like a model who did this because it looks great – not for any other reason. You are an amazing person, Mom, friend and more. Thanks for letting me be part of your life!
xoWynne
Susan, I just wanted to tell you how inspired Shawn was today after your visit to class. He said he was going to shave his head too. Especially if it would make you well. We love you. See you soon. P.S. The boys are having a blast. Tyler loved “Monster House”, he is bringing it home so you can watch it with him. XOXO
Hi Ms. Susan,
You still look gorgeous! Adam looks wild. Tyler I hope you don’t hurt yourself again but cool staples dude! Lukey keep it up. You all have nice mowhawks.
See you soon,
Connor
I have to say that I am the proudest Mom and Grammy in the whole world!! My family rocks!!!
hmmmmm………..one of these things is not like the others….one of these things just isn’t the same.
come on russell…..get with the program, dude!
sharon
p.s.–i ditto wynne’s comments on how stunning you look today, susan! the fact that you can put together a gorgeous outfit, accessories and all, blows me away! all i could muster the strength for today was a worn out t-shirt and frumpy “jogging” suit. and then after the park, i had to come home and take a nap right along with my kids! i’ll tell ya, rounding up my 2 kids plus adam and luke was just a tad tiring! i may have forgotten your diaper bag at the park, but i did NOT lose/forget a child! whew! your boys were angels, as usaul, and that lukie…what an appetite! he really likes applesauce and peanut butter sandwhiches!
Just want to ditto all the rest…you look beautiful..all of you…good decision.
My little boy shaved his head for Halloween last year so he could be Avatar…you are so stylish!
xoxo
Susie you are amazing! Seriously you look beautiful. I love ya.
Susan….you look SOOOO beautiful! I’ve always wanted to shave my head! Your boys are so precious…all of them! You are truly blessed with such wonderful family and friends. My son-in-law looks fantastic!!! I think Cristina loves the new look. You are in my thoughts and prayers everyday and especially on Saturdays when I’m with the TNT walk team. Is it okay if I make some buttons with your picture on them so the team knows who I’m walking for? Is a bald picture okay? Let me know! Stay strong!
Love…..Barbara Weiser
I just found your blog. I was showing my mom pictures of Demi Moore when she shaved her head. She is going through Chemo right now and is having a hard time with the hair loss. I keep telling her how beautiful she is and found your blog in the process. Good Luck!
I love it!!! So inspiring!!
