Pami, if it makes you smile even a little, you can have my hair - I will gladly chop it all off and send it over to you. Know that you are not alone, nor will you ever be - we are here with you every step of the way, I promise. -- Sharon from Melbourne Australia (Queen of Down Under) http://www.geocities.com/shazrules/craft.html (takes a while to load) http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/shazrules/my_photos (same as website but quicker) "pami" wrote in message ... I am sure all you have heard Daniel Powder's song..."Bad Day" well this was my bad day. I learned I have breast cancer. I had my lumpectomy this week and it came back as malignant garde 3 tumor. I will have to get a "masectomy" and have chemo. This has been a rough day for me but I don't think I have the strength to cry anymore. I know I will lose my hair and this really sucks but if I have to do this to keep alive then I will have the surgery and do chemo. I will settle for chemo hats verus hair for life. I'll be 51 in May and this seems not fair but I get my mammos yearly and watched and it could of been worse. Last year I had a lumpectomy in the other breast and that was benign this year my luck ran out. I see and hear of so many survivors and I know this group has always been here for me when ever I needed them. Pami |

Breast Cancer/OT
In January I had 10" cut off mine and sent down to teh Locks of Love place
in Florida. They make wigs for children with cancer. They do have a website, if you are really interested in cutting off your hair, but they do require a minimum of 10" to work with so there's enough to weave and style. Maybe there's a place like that in Oz, and if not, I'm sure the LoL people wouldn't mind Aussie hair! http://www.locksoflove.org is their web address.

What is "eic in path report"?
I don't think I would get a wig either, partly b/c I'm so hot natured, but also partly b/c I LOVE HATS!!! I'd be making them all grades of funky, too, with fringe and beads and sticky-outty parts and spangles, etc. Here is a funny story for you; I may have said this one before. When I was workign as an art teacher, we got a grant to have a guest artist in to make a quilt with the kids. We started from the ground up, so to speak, dying the fabric in class, which the artist was to take home and cut up and sew into a quilt. So one day in class, she got overheated and decided to take off her wig. Before she did, though, she called everyone's attention and told them why she didn't have hair and that she was hot so she was going to take off the wig and she was telling them so that nobody would get upset (8th graders, inner city school). Her hair under the wig was actually nicer than the wig! It had grown out about half an inch by that point. Class resumed and no problems. L "pami" wrote I don't think I'll go for a wig...I'll wear some chemo caps. Pami |

So very sorry to hear this Pami. Bad day indeed.
However, treatment is improving all the time and there are lots of survivors in this group to prove it. Next year you will be in that select and wonderful group. If you can, please let us know when the surgery is scheduled, and when the chemo starts so that we can get the good thoughts and prayers flowing. ..

found in the pathlogy report states cancer woud reoccur. This will be a long week for me. Pami |

I actually have one friend who feels I should do NOTHING and let death
happen. I am a mom, wife and friend to many. My life isn't over yet. I think I need to avoid friends in my life like that now. I actually feed her cats when she goes on vacation. Nobody knows what they would do until you receive.... lose a breast or die. Pami |

My mastectomy will be on the 5th of May and chemo can't start for until 2
weeks after that. I have to heal first. The more I talk the more I am accepting this. Pami |

If you chopped it off I wouldn't know what to do or how to get a wig....I
assume you're kidding me....I couldn't let you do that for me. I would like to find a cute chemo cap pattern... Pami |
