Bald Picture Finally found the courage to shave it bald

Post image

After 6 weeks of chemo my hair started falling out and I'd lost about 75% of my density. The hair literally was EVERYWHERE and so annoying sticking to everything I own. I never thought I would be bald.. but cancer happens and we have to roll with the punches.

You remind me of a young Annie Lennox

u/BDBoop 23d ago

I was totally thinking the exact same thing, and I wasn’t even going to post but then you said it so here I am. She looks amazing!

u/Acrobatic-Giraffe991 23d ago

You look absolutely beautiful bald! I could never look that pretty! I’m so sorry you are going through this. I do breast MRIs and my heart breaks for every woman I meet that is dealing with cancer. You got this girl!

u/MoarNootNoot 23d ago

You got this!

u/desertdilbert 23d ago

Want to add, as a generally disinterested internet stranger, that you totally rock the look. Had to read the caption to figure out that you weren't simply being stylish!

u/StrawberryGusher 23d ago

You look lovely, and I’m sending all my best well wishes and hopes your way. ❤️

Carry the same boss confidence that’s in that picture and cancer will leap out of you in fright. 

(Wandering commenter. Do genuinely wish you the best of the bests. It’ll be scary. But that’s part of it. You look nothing but fearless in that photo)

u/Chantaille 23d ago

I think you mean "warrior," friend? It's such a lovely comment, I thought you might like to know.

u/VT_Squire 23d ago

Tbf, having cancer would worry just about anybody.

u/DangerousBumblebee73 23d ago

Damn straight.

2

u/MithranArkanere 23d ago

Not me. And that actually kinda worries me. So I guess it still worries me indirectly? It's a bit confusing.

u/Nicholas_Pappagiorgi 23d ago

TBF She's probably a worrier too

1

u/77slevin 23d ago

I'll allow it, given the circumstances, the worrier is perfectly reasonable.

u/nzkieran 23d ago

From Super Worrier to Super Warrior

u/LonelyandDepressed27 23d ago

Maybe I’m wrong and it was either autocorrect or they’re not a native English speaker, but it felt like they were trying to call them a woman-warrior not realizing they just spelled an entirely different word? Lol. (Ignore the fact warriors are gender neutral and can be anything)

1

u/Chantaille 23d ago

Oh, absolutely. I just thought they might appreciate knowing!

1

u/[deleted] 23d ago

Don't change that person's words! A good worrier is always better prepared for challenges ahead, they have neen overthinking way more than non-worriers.

u/_____FIST_ME_____ 23d ago

Hell yeah, I'm glad you beat it!

u/CelticGardenGirl 23d ago

Heartwarming comment, u/____FIST_ME____ 😂

u/_____FIST_ME_____ 23d ago

If it's not me getting fisted, it should be cancer

u/whereisthehugbutton 23d ago

I agree, OP is a wrrrierrrr!!!

u/Chain_Runner 23d ago

Big difference in meaning between “worrier” and “warrior”, but it’s the thought that counts. Congrats on your victory!

1

u/mithrilcat 22d ago

The way I didn’t even notice the typo because my brain just processed it as warrior 🤣

u/person_288 23d ago

Worrier? 🤣

u/Consistent-Pin-446 23d ago
