Wig shopping

October 24:  Again to radiation in the morning.  The weather has really been cooperating with our daily adventure!  The fall colors are vibrant and help us to be grateful for the world we live in.  After her session today we visited a wig salon and found one that looked like Nanette's hair color and style.  She has been warned that her hair will probably be coming out in chunks soon.  Most people have advised her to just "buzz" her head when this happens so she is planning ahead.  They encouraged her to wear the wig a little bit to get used to it and to have fun styling it so she is comfortable with the style and feel of it.  The women in the salon were very encouraging to her and had helpful advice.  Picking out a wig for when your hair falls out doesn't sound like the "sweet" experience we like to have after radiation but it turned out to be fun.  Nanette's positive attitude and determination are helping all of us.
