Taxi...from an ugly duckling to a swan

Hi Taxi,

All my hair fell out when I was I'll and having treatment - although it's a bit different for a chap. What I found was that, because ALL body hair went including from arms and legs, I was just freezing cold all the time!

It'll grow back so don't worry. Let people stare! Or you could buy one of those fab headscarf things that people from Botswana wear. They're really classy!!

I'm proud to 'know' you taxi, what a brave and remarkable woman you are! I'm pleased for you that the treatment is finished, it's time to take things slowly, get better and enjoy living!

Thanks everyone x

Here's the thing I was afraid of posting but I need your prayers etc.On my review to see how radiotherapy was going(2 weeks ago this coming tuesday) I pointed out to the consultant that I felt lumpy/odd on my other side..he gave me a good examination and said he would order me a CT scan but then said an ultrasound would be quicker.....haven't even had the appointment through yet so need to phone them tomorrow.
Please keep your fingers crossed that we are not going there for a 3rd time

Aw Taxi even having to think about number 3 is beyond pants. And as for the hair, let them stare. I work on the premise it's them that's got to deal with it, not me. Worse bit is losing your nostril hair because you end up with a permanent cold.

You're getting there. Everyone's in your corner...tad cramped but very positive. You will make it through and covered with glory, finesse and style xxx

(((Taxi))), I will be hoping and hoping that everything is ok, and the lumpiness isn't anything you need to worry about.

am working on the fact I had CT in jan and had had chemo and there only being a small risk of it in the other side..that odds are it isn't cancer back again..nobody can be that unlucky can they?

big hugs, at least ur being proactive and asking, big hugs, It just could be the weight youve lost as well, just left the body a bit lumpy and bumpy. xx

Taxi - I hope everything will turn out ok for you. After all you've been through surely not again but at least it's being looked at so they can put your mind at rest. Sometimes life is just so damn unfair!

Honestly Taxi - you are coping with all this carp so very very well :beer:
Stay strong Hun - let's hope it isn;t - but "if" it is then third time lucky!


Just remember that there are some furry cousins darn sarf who are happy to donate [STRIKE]fibrous material[/STRIKE] hair if you want it :cool: (colours might be a bit "off" though )
