Sitting here with tears streaming cos my hair has started coming out in big clumps. I'm on day 19 since start of chemo so I've been expecting it but that doesn't make it any easier. I feel overwhelmed...
Feel ya! I had my hairdresser come to my house with my family around me to give me the support I needed. I literally broke down as she put the shaver on the table. Went to my bedroom had a good cry then composed myself to get the job done. This was the next hurdle of my journey! Yes I had tears as she shaved my head but my family supported me & tried to make me laugh & smile & told me how fab I looked. After the 1st week of looking in the mirror & getting use to my new look, I embraced it! I took photos & some funny ones & even uploaded a few on FB. This actually empowered me! Sharing it with others, & putting awareness out there which I did throughout my journey! TBH I thought I looked better than my bald husband haha! It’s an emotional time, it’s your next hurdle BUT You’ve got this! 💪👍🏻 💗
