I have been cancer free since the end of April,2007 when my upper RH lobe of my lung was removed, after that 3 months of chemo ( once every three weeks x4 ). I was 47 at the time of the discovery, never smoked. My cancer was found during a routine chest X-ray. It was found very early.

Hair Loss-Ain't It Grand!
in LC SURVIVORS

The day I noticed my hair falling out was on fathers day 2007, a couple of weeks after my first treatment. We had my mother and my in-laws over for diner that day, after everyone left, I told my wife " get the clippers out, shave it all off" I wasn't going to deal with hair falling out all over the place. In some small way, it was my way of dealing with it and cut it on my own terms before it got too noticeable
I was ready for it, being a guy, it didn't bother me in the least. I kept telling people " In the gran scheme of things, hair is highly over rated " I kept telling two of my friends that are balding ( naturally ) and have comb overs' to give it up!
Of coarse I would imagine that with women it is harder to take.
