Just a quick get it off my chest moment coming up - if you are of weak disposition stop reading now.
Having braved the moment when I removed my wig to show off to the world my newly grown crop of hair why do some people think it's okay to make rude comments about not needing a fiver for a haircut or skinhead or just gawping open mouthed at me! I haven't done short hair since I was seven and it's certainly not a look I'd choose but bloody chemo leaves you with no choices arghhhhh!
I'm seriously tempted to get a teeshirt printed with I've had Cancer what's your problem?
My husband has witnessed some of this so I know it's not my overactive imagination and is very protective and I'm getting a bit concerned he might actually punch the next person who dares even to look my way!
Perhaps I should train Fred to growl ferociously at the rude ones - now there's a thought.
