Thanks for that.. I hope my journey has helped someone else in some way, even if it's small.
I'm doing ok these days, still extremely tired from the treatment plus painkillers I'm still on for the rib-nerve pain, which didn't go away with the chemo. It's not a tumour or cancerous, just there.. but I believe I have no cancer left. My hair is growing and is short and grey/dark brown and curly, can't put colour in it yet..
Have even started doing some work and LOVE it, it makes me feel normal again and the more my hair grows, the less people are reminded that I've had cancer. It's been an ongoing reminder. Haven't worn my wig for 2 months now, took the risk to go out with just a thin layer of hair, and no-one looked at me sideways
so now it's normal for me to have hair this short.
Thanks again, all. I'll check into the Buzz more often now, had a break.
