Hair comments
Hi ladies,
I have done 4 shifts back at work and all is going well. Amazing how many comments I have had about my 'new hair'. 99.5% have been nice and positive, I think it helps that I am comfortab...
ive got to share this--met someone last week who i have not seen for a few years and she asked a few times 'so how are you really...and eventually i said --oh youve heard i had breast cancer and she said yes
and then looking at my chest--im wearing a lowish cut top and only had a lumpectomy--she says--'so you had a double mascetomy?''---i said no in fact you would probably not even notice the scar or that ive had any operation at all and she says ' oh thats right you were always small....
and then...gets better..she says ( i havent had chemo and have rather thick longish hair) --'so you lost all your hair and that is a wig?'---now during the 80's i did have a 'wiggy' style but i was wearing it in a pony tail ....
she does get points for bringing up the issue as mostly i can weeks without any reference to breast cancer so its all good and im still amused by it!!
