I have my second dose of chemo next week. Today I woke up today with some hair on my pillow not loads but still a shock I’m feeling so nervous as I really don’t want to to loose my hair! How did others feel?
You look beautiful️ yes I had it cut before I started treatment just past my shoulders. I couldn’t bring myself to go shorter so I’m feeling all emotions right now. I’ve got my referral for the wig and going to book my appointment to go and get one. It’s all so overwhelming isn’t it. Maybe my outlook might change further down my journey but right now I’m not feeling ready for having shorter or no hair xx
Took me a few weeks, you'll know if/when you're ready. Still the most difficult issue for me to handle. Jo x
