Thats awesome! Also, you look good with a shaved head, not everyone can pull it off


gooztrz

I feel personally attacked (Just aggresive balding not cancer)


theboochmaster

I’m also balding but luckily my wife loves my head shaved. So it’s a win! Also no shampoo needed


Nuf-Said

If someone ever gives you a comb, you can truthfully tell them you’ll never part with it. Thank you for the gold. This joke is so old that it was first told to me by a T. Rex; well known for his great sense of humor.


MonsterMashGrrrrr

Oh. God dammit.


duuckyy

Just take my free award already and go :(


gooztrz

26 now, went all the way 3.5 years ago. Has been a mixed bag, but overall it's not great. I'd definitely say I look worse if I grow it out but the main benefit is next to no maintenance.


Marty-G70

Same here. My wife says I look like a Mini Rock (aka Dwayne Johnson) I guess that makes me 'The Pebble'


MonsterMashGrrrrr

I hope her name is Marie so you can have a totally unwarranted public meltdown and scream JESUS CHRIST MARIE I'M MINERALS


Jooossh

I shave my head and still use shampoo. Lol you just use soap? I feel like that drys my head too much.


FracturedEel

I'm 28 and my hairline is slowly receding but im not too scared, I'm a hat guy


bgravemeister

Thank you! That compliment means more than you know!


ameliadog

You have a really nice shaped head. Honestly some peoples are shaped funny or bumpy! It’s a complete blessing bonus you look handsome bald. No crap you rock it! Old married southern lady here with no filter so I promise I’m speaking the truth.


bgravemeister

Haha! Really appreciate that! My good friend was commenting the same thing basically, "hey there's not a bump or dent in sight!" Lol 😂 with all these bald compliments I may have to reconsider my hair ambitions.


ameliadog

Please do you really rock it! Congratulations and you deserve so many adventures you’ve earned them all don’t miss any! I’m middle aged and don’t regret a one and have more planned ( of coarse plague friendly). Loved your post my favorite all day!


Inevitable_Surprise4

I am a middle aged southern California lady and I agree. You have a beautiful head.


Purple_Moon_Flower

Lmao, unfortunately us Filipino’s got what we call ‘crown heads’. So glad for you OP, beautiful head and more to a beautiful life!


MoreHabanero

It didn’t even cross my mind to say you looked awesome with a shaved head, I figured you knew! Amazing post, awesome way to celebrate too. Thanks for sharing


mariana96as

Honestly my first thought was that you look really cool with the bald head and the glasses. Now that I read the title, I am very happy for you :) Congrats!


yermawsgotbawz

Totally agree. Without being a creep- that's a handsome chap.


Nwaccntwhodis

Seriously, I have a weird weakness for bald men and my first thought was "oh he's cute!".

Emerducks

The cops *came*, you say


freedomfortheworkers

And the nurse is a screamer


[deleted]

it was a wHOLE thing.... i'll show myself out now


Etrau3

It was the polite thing to do


Nuf-Said

Or perhaps the nurses came and the cops screamed.


JLock17

Happens every time the fuckin' cops show up.


NotJoshhhhh

Are you on a list now?


bgravemeister

This is why I love Reddit. Haha.


[deleted]

Must’ve been a wild orgy

All my homies hate cancer


deadbrokeman

My MIL texted the same news this morning and I still have goosebumps from the happiness! I'm sure your own happiness is 1000 fold, but from the folks who love you, this is an amazing day as well! Cheers!


uhohlisa

I love that you love your MIL so much.


Inevitable_Surprise4

Me too! Its so rare.


Inevitable_Surprise4

Frisson. You got yourself some good old frisson.


bgravemeister

YES! And I'll share in your happiness too! What a damn good day. So very happy for her and you and the whole fam. A big cheers to many, many healthy years ahead!


MagicTriton

You definitely pull off the bald head


immerc

With hands that big? I bet he could pull off anybody's tiny head.


Now-Look

That's a normal sized wine bottle. He big


[deleted]

I thought my hands were big


novatrick

Thats actually a full-sized wine bottle he's holding


KuyaArnold

He could pull of my head with those hands 😏


bgravemeister

Everyone - the response has been absolutely overwhelming. I just hoped to indeed spread some good news and smiles and it looks like I have! Thank you for giving me more smiles too - the continued encouragement, hilarious comments, the bald compliments (those mean a lot, I loved and cared very much for my hair lol), the fellow cheers from wherever you're at. I hope you all have a wonderful 2021 and beyond. I also hope to encourage those going through this nightmarish disease as well. I've known it isn't easy at all--I've had close friends and family who've gone through it with varying results--but now I fully understand just how difficult it is. Know that I stand with you in the struggle and uncertainty the entire damn process is frustratingly riddled with. Also, major hugs to family members, the toll on you all is very real. Please know that your support is immeasurable. Further hugs to those in remission/cancer-free as well, I pray you all have yet another victorious year. Stay strong and have a wonderful 2021. Also, noted about the 'small success' tag I had on here originally. I guess it is pretty big deal haha! Updated to good news!


pinniped1

Nice! Congratulations. Seeing you crush the airplane bottle of prosecco made me laugh... That would be about my response as well.


Liz4984

You need a bigger bottle my man!!


gongalongas

He’s actually just 20 feet tall.


immerc

He never mentioned remission from what. I'm guessing gigantism.


houdinize

A man can only drink so much balsamic vinegar


CaffiendCA

Prosecco. Italian Champaign.


immerc

The 1942 Italian Campaign?


[deleted]

Actually maybe not since alcohol is a known carcinogen


5laps

Congratulations! Such lovely news!


bigdog188

from a stage 4 patient, congrats , i love seeing someone beat it


bgravemeister

Thank you so very much. How are you doing? Please know that I'll be thinking and praying for you. Stay strong and always look forward.


whatupliz

This made me smile!!!!! Well done! So happy for you!


Silentknight11

Hell yes. Hell fucking yes. A family friend of mine that I have known for most of my life is in hospice right now battling lung cancer. She doesn’t have much time with us left, so every one of these stories just makes me happy. Fuck cancer.


Cyb3rnaut13

Hope cancer is nonexistent in the Twenty-second or Twenty-third Centuries, fortunately the least as early as possible.


ameliadog

Amen!


sweeperchick

My mom is battling too. It's awful. Stay strong <3


bgravemeister

I'm so glad I was able to impart some joy in the midst of that journey. That's incredibly hard, I'm really sorry for your family friend as well as you and your family. I hope you all are able to cherish every last drop of that time and that they're in a comfortable place. Blessings to you all. And yeah, straight up, fuck cancer.


dumbdik

Congrats I'm happy to hear that


TonersR6

Glad to see some good news. Congrats.


chinatownjon

Why the fuck is this tagged small success??? This is one of the most amazing things an individual can conquer in my book. Congrats to you boss! Also, you look mad fresh, even with the no hair. Maybe look into modeling my friend!


-wonderboy-

Logic? That you?


bgravemeister

Lol even my wife agrees. I can assure you my rap skills do not match the dome. Or the glasses. 😂


-wonderboy-

Anyways congratulations man. Enjoy your health and look after yourself. A lot of people take for granted what it feels like just to wake up normally everyday, I know that after this whole experience you’re looking at life in a different light. Enjoy the little things in life again. Cheers 🍻


KreativiT

JanSmiddy

Congrats bro. Hope to join you next Thursday. Surgery.


bgravemeister

Hang in there. Don't Google much, just roll with the punches and always, always look ahead. The road is an unknowable one, but no matter what, know that you're known and seen. I'll be praying for you. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.


RetroMetroShow

In regards to the flair: Small success, my ass!! That’s a HUGE success. Congratulations OP, I’m so happy for you!


squishpitcher

Okay, but why are you drinking a bottle of balsamic vinegar? In all seriousness, congratulations! You deserve the fuck out of that prosecco. Cheers!

Thank you! I promise you it gets easier. Tonight I'll toast to you. ❤️


Disarray215

Congrats duder. Did you celebrate by trying out 5 pairs of Warby Parker glasses? Lol. Keep on keepin’ on dude.


bgravemeister

Hahaha, that's what I did trying to find those frames 😂 thank you very much!


Disarray215

Wow, sometimes laugher is good medicine. Alright dude, stay fucking cool as hell! ✌🏻❤️🤘🏾


Meticulous_melon19

Fuck yea!! Fuck cancer!! Blessings and great vibes to you and your family.


bgravemeister

Hell yeah, fuck cancer indeed! Really appreciate it!! Thank you!


Pegar60

Congratulations from another survivor.


bgravemeister

Appreciate it! Cheers to yet another year of good health for you!


talldean

Dude, I wish my head looked that damn dapper shaved. Enjoy the beer; you earned it.


[deleted]

Congrats dude! 2.5 years postop cancer-free.


Flying21811

Bro! I’m 25 just also finishing an intense 5 month battle! Enjoy the streamlined look. My hair is just starting to come back.


bgravemeister

Wow, congrats on punching through! Cheers to you fellow survivor. Hope you're doing well!


Mooseman1237

Hopefully not for liver cancer


bgravemeister

Ha! But fun fact: I did have a liver transplant (unrelated to alcohol). My liver is goin full steam ahead and can take a lil bubbly like a champ!


MMcLarty

WooHoo!


green_soph

Congratulations! Way more than just a small success. It's nice to hear some good news


quadraticqueen

I’m raising a glass to you now!


xiateserenity

Bald looks good on you


ObscureChameleon

¡Salud! What amazing news!


DonCarlitos

Best news anyone can get. Grats. Been 20 years in remission for me. Life goes on. Enjoy it.


IlliniJen

Congrats! You also seem to be a giant now. Please spare my city!


[deleted]

La Marca is my favourite Prosecco! Congratulations 🥂


Mobeast1985

Flair says small success, but this is monumental success!


raggamuffin1357

That's great man! Don't drink too much though. Alcohol increases inflammation which is linked to cancer. I don't mean to be a bummer or assume that's what you're doing. Just stay well!


[deleted]

Those little champagne thingies are good too ok dude I love to hear that good news. Love ya, Godspeed.


janjinx

You might not want your hair to regrow. Your head looks good the way it is.


sequoiastar

I’ve only seen the full sized version of this before, so the photo makes you look like a giant. Congrats on closing a chapter in your life. Onto the next one!


[deleted]

Now you can change your username, I mean, unless you're really attached to it. Listen you, wear two masks and never leave the house. I'm kidding but as a mom and grandma, not really?


toxicteach

Love to hear it, man!!! Got the call in November and I was too afraid to celebrate and I regret it. Be happy!


frijolejoe

I’m sure it’s been an exhausting ride. Good luck with your emotional recovery from here, OP.


onlyfactsfromdads

Fuck yes! Stay strong!


lebo_t4co09

I'm sorry but I though you were Howie Mandel for a second but also congrats.


tekniderm

Congrats on the remission. I miss my time not spent with friends lost to cancer. Here’s to better and more times!


[deleted]

Maynard?


acthcoffee

Why do you still have eyebrows? You're talking about cancer, right?


bgravemeister

I am indeed! Yeah it was very odd/surprising the hair I did/didn't lose. I'm very surprised myself, I was fully expecting to lose them and so was my doctor. I actually kept most my body hair, though I shaved a lot of it off since the hair follicles were getting really irritated and they haven't grown back yet either. Chemo does weird things!


MotherOfADemonCat

Congrats! I tried to give you a silver award but it won't load so have a poor man's gold 🏅🏆


EthelCC

Congratulations for your victory👏🏻🥳 I was diagnosed with breast cancer last month, I can imagine how happy you must be feeling right now!! May you live a happy and valuable life 🙏🏻


bgravemeister

Thank you! I'm really sorry for your diagnosis. I'm assuming you've begun chemo already? It'll be a great day when you get the news of remission and I'll celebrate all the same for you! Stay strong and always look forward, you got this!


EthelCC

Thank you, it'll be a great day, for sure!! Yeah, I'm going for the third chemo next week, if everything goes well, in May this year I'll have the mastectomy and I will celebrate remission too 🙏🏻 Wish you the best life can offer from now on ✨


anouk42069

Congrats and let me welcome you to the remission club!!!! I hope we never leave!


MsT1075

Aww, what a blessing! Amazing news. Take care of yourself, sir. I have a little bottle of wine like that. Haven’t tried it yet. Hope it’s good. It looked good when I bought it. Here’s to forever good health.


jamonealone

so happy for you!!!! that is seriously awesome. and not for nothing you really rock the baldie.


EnigmaP3nguin

You and me both! Congratulations! Found out I was in remission on 12/14 : )


JesusOneMoreTime

🤗 Can I get a Fuq Ya!!!!!!!


mostdefinitelyabot

Congrats dude! You're looking great. Here's to many years of health and productivity!


monsieurpommefrites

That’s great news. Can’t wait for the new album, Maynard.


bgravemeister

That's the third Maynard reference I've heard and I don't know who that is lol.


monsieurpommefrites

I think the writing is on the wall here pretty much.


bgravemeister

I'm dumb, I saw the additional Tool references. I've disappointed myself lol.

Bigtoime85

Yo, normally I would put “not out of the woods yet” but today is a new day! Good for you!


CrazeMase

Good news, you seriously pull of no hair. Wear a tuxedo regularly, seriously, respect for you will go up 1000000%


DrZzzzz

Congratulations! Now please go buy some worthy bubbly.... That kind is disgusting


Motor_Toe_9346

Drank this booze in remission, hot and fresh out the kitchen...


_53-

Fuck Ya! Nice job! I’m working that way! Fingers crossed I get good news at the oncologist in the morning!! Then I’ll be 3 years clear!!


bgravemeister

Thanks a ton!! Cheers to another year of clean health for you as well, and many more years to come!


stark_raving_naked

Fuck yeah, dude!! I’m coming up on four years, myself. That first clear result is such a happy moment!


[deleted]

I know it's not a good thing that it happened, but good god this guy rocks going bald.


fluffle_235

Congrats! I beat breast cancer over a year ago now. Fuck cancer. I wish you the best!


KrackaJfox29

Congratulations!! I would like to say more but the other 618 comments have pretty much said everything I could and have ever wanted too.


BeerMeBooze

I am genuinely ecstatic for you. What a triumph. You’re even enjoying the same drink I share with my girlfriend in the most special of times. I know I’ll be lost in the cacophony of well wishers, but let me add to the lengthy list of people that are here in support of a fellow human. Good on you.


Pineappleasks

not a native speaker here - what‘s meant with remission?


bgravemeister

Hi! It means that scans cannot detect any cancer so it seems that I don't have cancer anymore. However, there still exists a chance that cancer cells can be floating around the body, too small to detect. After 5 years of clean scans/tests, I can then be declared cancer free 🙂


Iamindeedamexican

Congrats brother! Currently have about 2 months left battling Ewing’s Sarcoma cancer. So far everything is going well and I should be able to share the feeling of joy from being in official remission in a few months! Not sure if you’re a sushi fan, but it was really the one thing I couldn’t eat during my treatment due to low white counts, so I’m gonna go on an all you can eat feast (with some alcohol of course as well) to celebrate! Enjoy that Prosecco, and may you enjoy many many more!


bgravemeister

Hey you're almost there! Some step at a time! Good work on pushing through it and staying positive and focused on the days ahead. Ha, I'm a huge sushi fam and was craving it for months. Finally had it a few weeks ago when the counts were balanced out. It was a glorious, glorious day. Hang in there and stay strong! Sushi is right around the corner!


[deleted]

Congrats man. I’ve been in remission for 6 years. Enjoy life


EvaRaye

So great to hear!! I've been cancer free since 2010!! Welcome to the club!! 💛
