Hello,
Thank you to everyone who has been sending me such lovely messages, prayers and vibes during my breast cancer treatment.
I had surgery in May and have now had 2 lots of chemo - 6 more to go, every 2 weeks.
Last Monday i could feel my hair sliding down my body in the shower and it collected around the plug hole like a furry dead animal ! ENOUGH I thought - the time has come. So I went to the hairdresser at lunchtime and had the rest shaved off.
Hattie had been waiting patiently in her box. We are now united - not all the time. I have another wig I haven't had the courage to wear yet. I fear it may be a little bit too long and luxuriant for a woman my age!
I also have some lovely scarves which I'm quite comfortable wearing.
I've changed my avatar to me and Hattie because that is what I look like now (on a good day!). OH took the pic last night. We went out to a pub for a couple of hours with some friends. It was lovely to feel normal.
I still thank LL every day - would I have found my lump if I still had the huge boobs I had before.....................???!!!
