Losing your hair

thanks bel, i ended up telling him that my hairdresser is going to shave the rest of hair off as the medicine is doing a good job and going to make better again. I asked him what going does he think it will grow back and he said "I hope it's rainbow" ( what a sweetie) . I didn't realise when they shave it off, that they don't actually shave it off, they use a 0? blade so i have like a 3 day growth on my head with funny patches on my head , either my hair shaft or dye stain from colouring I don't really know, so hoping the stubble falls off soon. My son said that it was good that i will have no have as i can be his baby now. so he seems fine so far. It was extremely difficult yesterday fronting up at school. He started prep this week and I started the week witgh hair and finished with a headcover so the secret is out. Parents I know come and give me a cuddle or chat with me and most importantly talk to me and make eye contact (thank you so very much!). I know it's a shock ti people to see someone who they now know obviously has cancer and I know the shock will wear off and it will become less noticeable as time goes on, but still felt a bit freaky, it was like running the gaunlet.

I am suprised how sensitive my head is. The sleeping cap is a good idea as if you rub it one way it's okay but the other way is sore. checked out headcovers for a scarves and hats etc and purchased a few different things, but it has been so very hot here in brisbane the hat might be more successful.

round 2 on monday,

i hope everyone is travelling well. thanks for letting me get it off my chest.

hugs to you
