Bald
Hi ladies,
Thought I would share a story my family and friends found very amusing.
As I told you all I was so sad when I lost my hair, but have adjusted quite well to being bald.
I was in the super...
That the sort of thing I'd do! Good on you! I too am beginning to be less shy the more I go out in public. One day I simply forgot my hat and went to the shops bald. I had a few interesting looks and a few knowing smiles. I've given up wearing scarves - it's too much hassle and too hot over here! My hair is growing back quite fast anyway but it's very different to what it was ( I had it coloured brown anyway!). My natural colour is silver now something I have to get used to. My hair is more white that silver at the moment - chemo drugs maybe. It all comes down to confidence. I discovered this yesterday at Adventure World. Even swimming in a pool and braving the tyres and mat rides took some confidence. Very strange. In most of these places you need to leave hats and sunnies in boxes so you are forced to show the bald head!! Anyway I came back exhausted! Maybe overdid it a bit!
Take care and always find time to see the lighter side of this otherwise horrible disease. It what gets me through! Be proud!
Love Alison xx
