Had a fantastic weekend this past Saturday night. One of my dear Friends is a musician and she was making her debut on Saturday at a dance in the city. A bunch of my BFF's and I went to support her and I must say she was fabulous...
I went all dressed up with one of my fabulous scarves on my head that I absolutely love. My BFF said to me that I should make my bald debut as well but couldn't gather up the courage...not yet. We all went out and had a fabulous time. I had a woman approach me and ask me about the c word while I was there...well she was well into her chemo treatments and was loosing her hair...asked how I coped with it. Well I assured her that I did not have cancer, but alopecia. I explained to her how I went through it and we exchanged numbers...I could tell she felt alot better talking to me about it...it does not upset me when people ask so abrubtly especially if they are going through it and I try to offer as much support as I can. I have one friend that gets really upset with people when they ask me if I have cancer...she is very protective of me and thinks that it is not appropriate for people to be so direct. I would rather they ask then assume. Well danced into the we hours of the night...and got some phone numbers lol WOW...I needed that....
