Self conscious about wig

Yes Paula, once I switched from AC to Taxol it started to grow back. But Taxol made my brows & lashes fall out! I'm 6 weeks free of chemo now & they are just starting to come back. I'm a bit bummed that the pubic hair is back. My arm pit hair hasn't come back yet though & I'm finding I don't need deoderant......strange!
The kids have been great (14 & 6) Jade gets a kick out of calling it chemo....ch as in chicken. Makes me sick that I may have passed the BRCA1 gene mutation on to them. My 14yo cried & thought he was going to get cancer :( We'll explain it to Jade when she's older.
