Boy do I remember those feelings so well, I would refer to myself as a freak show. Bought an expensive wig that looked real but so uncomfortable and the prosthetic, yuck. My insurance paid for bras so I went to a local store that specialized in fittings, they had pretty, not so pretty, comfortable and not so comfortable but they worked until reconstruction, but I did find a cool wig hat there. It was a baseball hat with hair and I wore it the most when out. I never went anywhere bald either even at home I always had something on my head. The hat was cool, when I donated it it was a hit. It was sporty and I looked like I was just wearing a baseball hat, no one knew I was bald underneath. I actually had a hard time parting with it but since I hate anything on my head now I said get rid of it and it felt good to donate everything. Cancer takes away some of our self esteem also but we get it back SLOWLY, Someone said to me when I first started my journey something that I clung on to, it is only temporary. So my her2 sister, it is only temporary. Good luck to you.
