I have recently been diagnosed with Non hodkins b cell Lymphoma. My chemotherapy regime is to start on Wed 11th July and will continue until the 29 August. Instead of moping and giving up i want to turn something that is a negative into a positive. I know one of the side effects of Chemo is hair loss, and as a woman this will be one of the hardest things to deal with. So I have decided that before the chemo takes my hair, i am going to ’brave the shave’ and lose it on my terms. Whilst hopefully raising some money at the same time. My works colleagues have decided to support me in this, and they will be shaving their heads and waxing their legs to help me reach my target. There are a lot of cancer charities out there, all doing great work. One place i have found is the Maggie Centre, they have been so supportive wether just popping in for a cup of tea, or attending the groups they run, from aromatherapy, to relaxation classes. There is always a friendly face waiting to greet you. Its centres like this i want to raise the money for, as well the other great charities that are Available. Hopefully with your help i can smash this target, and if anything is left over maybe treat myself to a nice wig.
