Feeling Empowered

Good on you! I have no trouble being bald at home, or even in the car, but as soon as I step out of the car I feel the need to cover up. But even then I still feel self conscious because I think people are looking at me trying to work out whether I have hair under there, or am just weirdly wearing a beanie on a warm day. At least if it is on display, it is pretty obvious what people are looking at. And maybe people just might think "she looks like she's got cancer, but look, she's still doing the grocery shopping, buying clothes, getting petrol, ferrying kids, doing normal stuff......what a hero!"

I still wonder when I cover up, who am I doing it for? All the people that matter to me still love me, so who cares about anyone else and what they think? I've got cancer. So what? If they find it offensive they can just go kiss my big, fat, white..........head!

Now where's my hat?

You're  a champion Jen!
