I've now booked myself in to a Look Good Feel Better workshop on 26th March (I think). And my friend who had breast cancer (and is about to finish her 5 years of hormone therapy in April, YAY!) came over tonight and gave me her wigs and scarves to wear until I don't need them any more. I'm starting to feel a bit better (she always makes me feel better any way because she cracks me up!)
So I think I've got a plan. The anxiety about my appearance and what my appearance means (oh look at that poor chemo woman) will be dealt with by use of the lorazepam stuff they gave me. Maybe now I can start to get to sleep a bit earlier. And with LGFB in my future and a bit more of a grasp on wigs and scarves thanks to my far-more-fashion-savvy-than-I friend, I can have a bit of hope that I won't always look and feel this way.
Has anyone out there done the workshop before? I don't usually wear makeup but I do usually have hair, so it seems like a fair swap at this stage in my life. What's it like?
