I kinda took a long break from blogging so will catch up now! My wonderful husband said these 20 weeks are mine and I can do whatever I want! What a great guy! I took a blogging break.
The cancer center by me has a wig boutique. American cancer society gives you the first wig free and the cancer center boutique has a wonderful volunteer who helps you pick it out. I decided I better make an appointment soon before I wake up with a pillow full of hair and a head without hair. I made my appointment for 2 weeks after my first chemo. It was a Friday. The night before I was brushing hairs off my face when I was sleeping. In the shower, clumps of hair were coming out. When I got to the boutique, the stylist combed out more clumps so......I got my head shaved! She turned me away from the mirrors so I didn't have to watch. I picked out a reddish brown wig which makes my eyes look really blue. Everyone says they are surprised it's a wig because it looks so natural. That helps!
Emotionally I'm fine. Now thrilled that I have no hair and that I have to wear wigs and hats. I've never been a hat person but I'm doing pretty good at the scarf, hat and wig thing. My problem is that I sometimes think the wig is a hat so I'll adjust it in public....LOL Look, that lady is moving her hair!!!
