I agree with Deb,don't worry about what people think.And yes,for the most part,I have found people genuinely concerned.I told no one about my BC except my husband and children,and I kept it this way until after my mastectomy.However,when I knew that I would be having chemo,I took a deep breath and had my head shaved.I have never worn a hat in my life,but do you,know what,I am actually very comfortable wearing little fitted caps and bandanas!Take care,and before you know it,your hair will be growing again.HugsxoxRobyn.
