Hair dramas - funny
So just when I found out I needed chemo I also discovered the kids had given me headlice. It was the only chemo upside I could see - get rid of the horrid things. Well Iām two AC in and have about 100 hairs left and I STILL found two lice this morning. Seriously those things are indestructible. Did make me laugh though.

Kero VS being in a cupboard ? I'd opt for the kero in this story as, like @Locksley, I am not fond of small spaces !Sign in to react to this post
- LocksleyMemberI remember at primary school long ago my friend and I were in line to have our hair checked by school nurse and we both had some head lice. The nurse put us in the cupboard so other kids wouldn't know. I don't know why but I can tell you I am now quite claustrophobic. My dad threatened sheep dip on us as kids because as soon as we got rid of them someone got them and spread them.Sign in to react to this post
