What a terrific story. As a guy who lost his hair through chemo, I can still identify with your words so much.

Marie, thank you for sharing this story. I agree that you should have won and am glad you did! As I read your story my journey mirrors mine! Spring..my chemo is done and I have little stubbles growing back. I have tried some scarves recently but I think I am still a wig girl at heart! Thinking I am still going to do the wig when this is done because it is so much easier…wash and wear 🙂

Marie,
I love the way you condensed the whole experience into this one tangible thing – losing your hair to chemo – and how you fought it.
I have such a clear image of the wig hanging on the loo door while you have a good head scratch – I laughed out loud when I read it and it makes makes me smile now just to think of it.
It’s clear from the story, the wig wasn’t your only or most powerful weapon – I think your humour takes that honour!
