Next Step
Well, I've taken the next step in this adventure - it was time to cut my hair off yesterday. I used the cooling cap first chemo treatment but had decided it wasn't for me and wasn't going to continue....

Got to say I like the feeling of all that hair gone - it had gotten to the stage where I couldn't wash, brush or touch it without heaps coming out so was ready to say goodbye and I think it made it easier. The cooling cap had damaged my hair to a degree where it looked and felt yuk anyway. I'm thinking I might keep my new hair ( when it comes down the track) fairly short too, always had very long thick hair but that was then. Funny to think how much BC has changed my thoughts and ideas already about so many things in a positive way - who'd have thought? My daughter couldn't bring herself to stay for the shave yesterday so hope she handles it ok. She's coming for the outing to chemo with me tomorrow and I'm sure she'll be fine - think she'll be ok knowing that I've accepted it and just moving ahead. Don't think any of us will notice after a while. Yes, the finish line is closer with each treatment so I'm ready for number two! Xx
