When my daughter lost all her hair from chemotherapy, she tried wearing a wig...She didn't like wearing the wig..She preferred wearing scarves and hats..to work. No, it did not make her feel less feminine not having hair...BTW she lost all body hair including eyelashes and eyebrows. If anything, it made her stronger beating the big C....Eleven years now..this month.
Women can be strong Lee...and still feel feminine...It is how you feel about yourself.
I used to kiss her bald head..just like I did when she was a baby...I was never more proud of her.
That doesn't sound bad to me at all. It is pure and simple, the truth.
It wasn't until both my parent's became ill..that I saw the selfishness of my father...he was an extremely religious man..and my mother just did as he said to do.
He buckled when she was in pain...told her to pray...but, when the shoe was on the other foot....and he was in pain....non stop calls and texting to me of when I could get his pain meds.
Sad part, is you have to jump through hoops to get pain meds.....for people who really need them with terminal illnesses...Stop by oncologist office for prescription in AM...maybe ready to pick up by 8 PM...
She died 6 months before he did....He was lost without her...He truly was....He loved her, just did not treat her as an equal....
*My grandparents used to watch The Lawrence Welk Show...It was on a channel that was hard to get in St. Pete..My grandfather would go on the roof and turn the antenna to get a clear picture....A good memory...Dang, I'm old...
