Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen

Today I had my hair colored (for the last time for who knows how long). I usually have highlights in the summer and in the fall, I go back to the darker color. I talked to my stylist that I've been going to for years and told her about the "C". I asked for recommendations for wig companies and if she would be willing to "style" the wig later. She told me that she's had clients in the past who've gone through what I'm going through. She said when the time came for one, she shaved her head for her back in one of the facial rooms. I've decided when my time comes, I'm going to have a party. I'll have MFD there, maybe a few other friends and a bottle of champagne. Might as well try to make a positive thing out of it. It's funny, but when I think about it, I'm more upset about losing my hair than losing a breast. She said that's because it's easier to hide a missing breast than missing hair..she's a wise stylist.
