Hi Karen and welcome,
Boy I got tired just reading all the things you have been doing. Yes it is a busy time - I actually "cherish" the chemo time just sitting and "relaxing". It might sound stupid but I make the most of a bad situation. On the following 7 days I know that I "have" to relax. It is enforced but I know that it is the way it is and look forward to the good days. I had long hair for over 30 years and now I am bald as a beaver. I am very surprised that I don't feel "devasted". It is all part of the process. Yes I prepared and got a wig with another on order. Lots of hats, scarves etc. I see it as something different. I do look forward to the end of the year though when I should have some hair. At present it is looking awfully like it might come back "white" - oh well something different again. Keep coming back on the site and letting us know how you are going. There will always be someone to "chat" with. XLeonie
