OK now if you're going to tell stories like that, you really MUST put a spew
warning in the subject line! ROFL.

My SIL once destroyed her hair coloring it while
dating my brother. They went to an amusement park. She wore a wig.....and
wigs and roller coasters don't get along....unless you have that wig
stapled to your scalp!! The WIG ended up in the guy's face behind her.
He handed it to her after the ride!!

Pami, I'm *so* sorry to hear of this diagnosis. However, remember that
cancer has many more survivors these days than we used to think. I'll be
keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, hoping to give you strength and
a quick recovery, as well as a complete cure. {{{{{{Pami}}}}}}

Absolutely avoid her from now on. It's okay
to be picky when it comes to friends.

In January I had 10" cut off mine and sent down to teh Locks of Love place
in Florida. They make wigs for children with cancer.


I donated after having Pillbug. Now I'm waiting for
my hair to get long enough again.

Technically speaking, Locks of Love does not make
wigs for children with cancer, because hair loss
from chemo does regrow afterwards. They make wigs
for children with diseases that cause them to be
unable to grow hair.

That doesn't sound like much of a friend.

her cats when she goes on vacation. Nobody knows what they would do until
you receive.... lose a breast or die.

of healing before chemo after my mastectomy. I just might buy myself an
ipod and have my son download the songs on it and take that to chemo with
me.
I don't think I'll go for a wig...I'll wear some chemo caps.


I think I must've missed the original thread about this, but I'm so
sorry to hear your news. Surround yourself with upbeat people and try
to keep a positive attitude. I have a friend who was declared
"terminal" five years ago and given less than four months to live. I
had lunch with her a few weeks ago! She has the most upbeat attitude
I've ever seen and she's still going strong!

I saw a gal that had one of those temporary tattoos of a parrot on her bald
head.

EIC (extensive intraductal component) means it will reoccur in the breast
again if I even opted for a lumpectomy . Removing the breast was the best
option being cancer was on all the margins of the removed pathology,

That was a cute story!! My SIL once destroyed her hair coloring it while
dating my brother. They went to an amusement park. She wore a wig.....and
wigs and roller coasters don't get along....unless you have that wig
stapled
to your scalp!! The WIG ended up in the guy's face behind her. He handed
it to her after the ride!! My SIL is in heaven but she loved to tell that
story!!
Yes...I can be a spunky thing...I told my husband I want a multi-colored
clown wig!! I would love to met him for lunch and be wearing that wig!!
I
think I would also opt for the pny tail cap. I also said I loved Peg on
married with children...that long red wig...and the foot motion....gotta
love it...and most of all...my DH's name is AL....hehehehe!! Okay you
made
me smile :-)
