pretty rough actually. Getting by the best I can.
Chemotherapy.
I remember those days. I’m sorry you have to go through treatment all over again, Shimmer1.
Are you all ready with the hats, wigs, and scarves?

I’m all ready, but just a little hair loss yet. I still am not positive I’m going to lose it. But if I do, I am eligible for another wig (80% paid) and I’m going light auburn this time!
Chemotherapy has come a long way in the past decade or two, it’s no longer automatically going to result in major loss of scalp hair, depending upon the type of chemo and individual reactions to treatment.

Light auburn sounds nice. Might as well have some fun with the wigs. :-) I hope you have a blessed Christmas!
