Cold Caps

Hi Shaylee, I actually got sick of worrying about how much hair I was loosing so my husband shaved my head yesterday. My reasoning was other than stressing out over how much I may again loose today preparing for the cold cap but also the fact that I'd lost about 70% of my hair over 5 days. I also factored in that along with the thinning areas i couldn't style it , colour it, wash it under a warm shower so i figured it wasn't worth the drama for me. My focus now is completely on my treatment and not crying or worrying about what the next day will bring hair loss wise. My oncologists was really up front and told me it was a 50/50 shot if I would keep my hair so I gave it a try. I'm much more settled in myself now, but like most of us I was scared to loose my hair but am more than ok about it now. When i was having a down day i did make comment that BC takes away everything that makes us feel feminine but you know what that's only if we let it. Only you can decide what is right for you and it is tough. I was going to wait until after today to make my decision but lost way too much hair yesterday to be that patient. I wish you all the best and know exactly how agonising the choice is. We are lucky we had the opportunity to try the cold caps.
