On a lighter note...Feeling finally like ME...a New Me....comfortable with my hair..
Losing my hair through Chemotherapy was one of the hardest/emotional things to come to terms with, once I shaved it off, I adapted like a duck to water. Yes there were days that were so difficult, juggling wigs, headpieces and eventually having no eyelashes was the absolute rockbottom. BUT...I threw together a collage of me from beginning just before starting Chemo to now. My hair growth til now, the last pic is 1yr of growth. Only NOW am I starting to feel like me but a different ME!! I know this is absolutely different for everyone and I too worried that mine would never come back! Hope and faith in all things. Hugs Everyone! xo Hugs Everyone! xo

- primekMemberYes, it certainly doesn't return overnight. I keep saying yes hair has grown back...but it's not my hair. One day I hope to accept it as my new hair. I'm still hoping it will change...we will see.
