Sorry SueW and all of you who have embraced your wigs! Didn’t mean to cause offence. I’m just not comfortable with my wig yet ?
We’ve all got to get used to our wigs and thinking who’s that looking back at me in the mirror, but I wanted to share with you from the amazing people on the thread one of them the other night thought Greg wallace was peering in her kitchen window at her, till she remembers she had no hair and it was her, shared it with the forum and had us all ???with laughter, another lady forgot she’d got no hair and peering out her window and is convinced she frightened her neighbour, shared it in the forum and again had everyone ???it’s a difficult one for us all to deal with but we’ll all get there together ???

SueW you have completely inspired me to rock a coloured wig - currently perusing these option with my late night online shopping!!
Thanks everyone I know need to get comfortable with my wig, just not there yet! You ladies are all so amazing and brave, I’m just not that confident. Those Coloured wigs look great Ruth!
Meesh you are amazing and brave too ???and we will get through this step by step, tears, laughter, support, understanding and love and anything else any of us needs, we are us and we are all still amazing all the time even when we have wobble days, casa nhs stays or anything else that comes on this journey ???shi xx
Agreed - Meesh you are doing amazing things already and no measly wig is going to get in your way 
Ps VERY tempted by the wig that makes me look like a Russian call girl ? Just need to find a leopard skin coat lol
SueW I think that would complete the look perfectly
Thanks everyone! I’m sure I’ll get there. Just had Epsom bath & meditation now off to bed as have work again tomorrow! Hope everyone sleeps well! ??
Ruth, of the wigs tempting you go for it ???what about eBay for the coat??? Ive got 4 wigs none more than £20 while I’m this chemo bit all are ok and do not look eight as you never know what will suit in any given day. And I will purchase the expensive one after when I can see how I feel at the end of chemo, thinking of it as a treat shop, is that strange o me, posh wig shopping as a treat? I know I’ll be sat there thinking could have got a mk handbag for this price tho ???love and sparkles shi xx
Sleep well too meesh, swap you i’ll Work you can have the extended weekend break at casa nhs, see told you, you are amazing ???love shi xx
Goodnight everyone - Shi agree I see the posh wig as a bit of a treat (have my fitting in a couple of weeks) but a handbag would be better ??
Thanks Mai17 for sharing - it was my bedtime story and so bl@@dy true. At the moment I am at the bottom of the mountain staring up thinking what the F%# but these amazing ladies are ahead of me and I am going to follow in their footsteps - wearing a Russian call girl wig if that’s what makes me feel better X and goodnight
Mai that story dums it up! I have never been an adventurer or a thrill seeker. I sm definitely a ‘coat holder’ or a watcher. Thats definitely bloody changed without anyone asking me!!!
Anyways, day 20 and i am almost bald. There is hair everywhere. It must be so much harder with long hair!! I do LOVE MY WIG though. We have beennput in the wind today just to see her staying power and she passed! As i walked up my road with a shopping bag in one hand and a takeaway pizza (for my son!) in the other i thought it would be quite funny it blew off now but it didnt! I am going to get a 2nd wig for a change!! My daughter is still really struggling with my lack of hair though and it breaks my heart ???
Cherry i think the matted hair happens to everyone but it is probably much easier with shorter hair.
I amnoff to get my bloods done in the morning before chemo 2 on Wed so hope levels of everything are ok.
Jencat so glad 1st one is done. Now be kond to yourself. Drink lots, suck sweets and write down how you are each day so you know for next time. And remember to take your temp! Xxx
Mai7 is the angel who took me under her wing from the may forum, she shared the mountain lion with me and I asked her to share it with october forum, thought it might help us all, it helped me when she shared it with me. Love and sparkles shi ??xx
Shi have your levels come up? How long are you expecting to be in now?
Hi ali, not nearly enough to go home yet, I suspect at this rate wed/thurs but hopefully make it our before chemo no 2 next week if bloods are up enough, what a first round it’s been and I was doing so well too. Thanks for asking. Love and sparkles shi ??xx
Blimey I’ve missed out on a lot tonite…think I’ve managed to just about catch up!
I still haven’t embraced my wig yet and find it a bit on the scary side but had a look at the bright wig site and thinking maybe I shld have some fun ones too…I’m not good at being serious!!
Really enjoyed Mountain Lion…thank you!!
Now gonna try get some sleep…been a busy eve for me, although I had staff in I’m still needed to make sandwiches for darts team and oversee things hence such a late nite…come back hubby!!
sleep tight ladies xxx
The sweets just help with the dry mouth Jencat. I liked the foxes fruits and mint humbugs. I also got some fruot ice lollies and little pots of jelly. I found that when i felt nauseous if i ate something i fel better. Pancakes from M & S were good. Plain but tasty. You will find what works best for you though…hope you get some sleep xx
I do need to swap these fat fingers though! Xx
Early I know but just woke up and wondered if we were all post surgery and now on chemo or if there are people who are on chemo train first before surgery, then us post surgery people and help if needed pre and post surgery. Then the rads That come at the end then the amazing May Team will I am sure give us tips and guidance to get us all through that. Jencat hope 1st night after chemo been ok. I just had a lot of tingling in hands and arms and my feet but drank water through the night which took that off ok. Back to sleep now before my early nhs slam call of blood pressure, temperature check and currently tablet, managed to get.cannula for drip antibiotics taken out yesterday, need to preserve those veins everyone ?love and sparkles ??shi xx
