I wore a knitted cap at night. I got it from the Wellness Community, which has a hat rack with caps that people donate. During the day when it was cold, I wore hats. Then it got warm and I stopped wearing hats. I am being militant, but I don't think I should be embarrassed about not having hair (It's growing back now, but I look like I have a buzz cut). Also, there are so many survivors now that I think we should go public so that society gets used to seeing bald women walking around. But that's just my soapbox. I didn't have the nerve to go bald until my head started sweating and I was uncomfortable. I see it as a teaching opportunity. I wear my pink ribbon pin and my pink bracelet so that people who wonder about my head might get the answer if they don't want to ask. Twice women have come up to me and shared their BC survivor stories. I liked that.
