My main reason for getting a wig was for the kids sake when I have to drop them off and pickup from Primary School (I have 3 aged 11,8 & 5) ), I didnt want them to be embarrased at all or have the kids asking them questions as I know they would get sick of it eventually and more than likely upset them as well(oldest boy grade 6 this year is very shy and reserved!!).
Secondly, I work at a supermarket where I know alot of customers and they dont know that I have BC. I am on leave at the moment til I am ready to come back but I really dont want to explain to everyone I serve why I have a scarf of my head and the reasons behind it as more than likely my hair wont have grown back by the time I return. At home i will be happy to wear scarves and hats or when I am by myself - go bald!!
