this really sucks but if I have to do this to keep alive then I will have
the surgery and do chemo. I will settle for chemo hats verus hair for life.
I'll be 51 in May and this seems not fair but I get my mammos yearly and
watched and it could of been worse. Last year I had a lumpectomy in the
other breast and that was benign this year my luck ran out. I see and hear
of so many survivors and I know this group has always been here for me when
ever I needed them.

O that would be the COOLEST!!! Shoot, if I thought I could stand it, it
would be cool to have a permanent one - nobody would ever see it once the
hair came back!

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 :-)

You would think so, but they CAN'T use hair that is too short, becuase it
has to be woven into the prosthesis with enough left over for styling. You
think that 10" is a lot, but I was shocked to see jus thow short it is, when
they cut mine off.

kids who can't grow hair.

I actually have one friend who feels I should do NOTHING and let death
happen. I am a mom, wife and friend to many. My life isn't over yet. I
think I need to avoid friends in my life like that now. I actually feed
her cats when she goes on vacation. Nobody knows what they would do until
you receive.... lose a breast or die.

That's putting it mildly, Mary. With friends like that, who needs...?
Pami, don't let anyone get you down! I've heard that having a good
attitude is at least half the battle.

Ahhhhhh Pami. It will be hard, but it will pass. Difficulties do, just
as do the smooth spots on the road. Pretty soon you'll be saying, "I
remember how hard it was, but I feel soooo much better now!"
Prayers are on their way. Just do a day at a time!

Can we call you "Chemo-Babe" for now?
Course that means we need to come up with another moniker when your finshed.
We call our Niece, "FireFly", now as she went thru radiation, too.: ) .
