Cancer stole my self love :(
Hi Ladies,
hoping for some help.
I was diagnosed in Feb with Stage 2B invasive BC and since then I've had a double mastectomy and have just finished my 6th and final round of TAC Chemotherapy.

Although older at diagnosis 50, i can happily say that sometimes change is put on us for a reason - to become less self absorbed, to consider others, to force us to change so many things about ourselves.
Like you I mourned the loss of my very slow growing long hair - but now so many people who did and didnt know me before - say how much they like my short curly locks and how EVIOUS they are that I dont need to wax or shave anymore and above all at almost 60 still have very few grey hairs so unlike them dont (&cant afford to) pay a fortune at the hairdresser.
if you love him DO NOT put off your wedding for vanity sake. Lie is too short to deny yourself love. You may find some issues if like me you have a chemo induced menopause But think of the alternative at least you are alive and you may as ell live each day to the fullest. in the future you will be able to look back and see how long your hair has become or how much better you feel 1 year 2 years etc down the track.
thinking of you and understanding a bit as my sons now both are married as are several of their cousins - next wedding in October.
wishing you well and sending lots of ehugs
