Missing my privacy

I felt very similar when I received my initial diagnosis last year. When my hair started to fall out it made it very real, the whole cancer thing. Don't be embarrassed. Try to take it in your stride. People will ask stupid stuff but on the whole, most people are just concerned. Your kids will see you with no hair and so will your hubby, so they are the ones that really matter. The whole small town syndrome can actually work in your favour, people will want to help. Accept it, they are just trying to lighten the load. I hope this helps a little. Deb xoxo
