Identity Crisis after Cancer Treatment
February 18, 2015

Dear Fran,

I wanted to ask your opinion on something: Do you ever not feel like yourself? Especially post cancer?

I don’t know if other people—especially women—going through cancer have this same problem, but I feel so many times like I’m having some sort of identity crisis. I’ve been feeling this way for a long time already: blogged about this same subject back in August of 2013, I see.

Always wanted long hair. Always gave up and cut it short. Got cancer. Went bald. Stupid to worry about mundane things like hair, right? Stopped treatment. Hair grew back. Great hair. Until it wasn’t. Texture of a Q-tip. Dyed hair again. Grew it out. Still didn’t feel like myself.

Well, today I went and had about five inches of my hair chopped off. I feel more like myself. Phew.

Best friends always,

Marie
