I try to be brave and face the world with my baldness, sometimes I can do it and sometimes I can't. I've managed to go into several places with no hat but I'm having trouble with places with lots of people. Now I have a wedding this Saturday where a lot of family members are going to see me for the first time as a bald woman, my brother worries me as I don't think he will be able to handle it, he avoids my emails when I try to bring it up. I don't know how I'm going to get through this as I expect there will be a lot of sympathy and I don't want that at such a happy time. I also don't want to cover up my head and wear a hat all day and night. I need some added strengh to get me through the day. When I noticed that my eyebrows were starting to go I broke down and cried, and I was at work, caught me off guard. I'm not going to look in that well lit mirror ever again :) I know a wig is the obvious solution but I don't want to go there. Lord give me strengh to get through this weekend.
