Hi Jo,
It can be hard to feel like a freak and especially when ur friends seem to be avoiding u...it's probably because they dont know what to say to you. They are frightened they may say somethinu to upset u, or that u may burst into teats and they wont know how to handle it...its more their problem than yours..but just hang in there, some will come around, others wont..You will soon learn who is happy to be a support to you and ur family..You may find u get food and wishes from ppl u didn't expect even :)
On the hair front, its good to have had ur head shaved.

Good luck with it all, and know that we are all here to supports u when u need us
Sam :)
