My head

Chemo was awful. I have never been a person who can sacrafice comfort for appearance. Wigs were out. Scarfs made me get too many pitiful looks from strangers. I couldn’t bring myself to expose my nude head in the raw. So I decorated it.

Great Tat! If I lose my hair I think I will do something similar. That is just too cool!
