I'm having such a hard time to smile today. I suppose it's one of those days where I tried on every wig I have and felt it just wasn't me. So I had to put my turban back on and it's not what I wanted to do today. Someone told me today, "You're lucky you don't have cancer and you have your health," and I in turn said,"You're lucky you have hair and good health." Sometimes I wonder if people think before they speak.
Yes I am grateful for my health but sure as hell not grateful for not having any hair. I just feel like crying. I guess it's just one of those down days and man do I ever hate them!!

Yes, there are days when you just can't seem to get anything to work out the way you want it to, look the way you want it too, and those are the days when our strength is challenged. And it is ok to not be strong enough to face that challenge in the moment and you need to let those emotions go and cry when you need to. Those tears will add more strength with every one you shed. We all have those moments, some more than others, and that is ok too. Hugs to you and shoulders if you need them....

I am sorry and hope you feel better soon. We all have days like that.

It's okay to feel down. Don't beat yourself up about it. I'm posting a new blog that might cheer you up. Hang in there. I was where you are 3 years ago, and things are so different now. Hugs, Mary

Lisa,
Yes i know its ok to cry, i too lately habeen looking at my eyes, been putting lots of lotion on them trying to stay away from the crows feet. Some days I have good days and others are ok, i have a therapy meeting next week and he only thing I worry about now is " which wig will i wear and keep wearing !! so I have a tough decision to make and that worries me, if no one ever had a staring problem i'd be wearing my turbans as they are too comfy!
Try not to cry much and keep your chin up thats what I also try to tel myself.
Lisa
