Three years on...

Hi Janey. Thanks for your kind words and congrats on your first anniversary. I noticed you mention your hair has grown back grey. Yeh, I went through the grey haired butch phase too. I eventually started buying those $5 six wash hair colours and put them in evey few weeks. Made me feel better about the short curly hair, having been a long haired gal all of my life. My hair is no longer so grey, even without the colours. So the grey shock will wear off. I wore a wig most of the time as I work at a high school but the day I decided to go wigless the kids all said how great I looked and were really complimentary. Little luvs they are!  As my hair grew longer I straightened it for a while with one of those Instylers, they are great but you have to spend time doing hair every morning. Watch out for those melt downs- they may be normal but could be the sign of something bigger. So if they keep coming see your doc. Thanks for your encoragement about my lack of motivation for better health. I eat well but need to do more exercise. I see my onc in April and he is super fit so the thought of seeing him is starting to scare me into some exercise. I will start walking. There, now I've said it, I will do it! Enjoy the first day of your second year. Do something special for yourself- hey, go buy a hair colour and go brown again for Xmas. Cheers...L xx
