I made a sun print!

I knew it was going to be extremly hot just for yesterday.I have wanted to make some some prints all
summer but apart from that I am supposed to keep out of the sun haven't had the energy to do anything much.So I covered myself rather like a bee keeper grabbed the things  I had put ready to use
and hurried up the garden,I had enough to make 2.Sadly dispite much searching I had lost Cas Holmes lovely book and couldn't quite remember what I had to do so I did each differently.Only one worked ,not brilliant but I did it!!
My hair is now beginning to fall out,I have been trying ways with scarves but I feel very self conscious so gave myself a talking too I either have a wig or its got to be scarves.The nurse that came explained that i should wash my hair in the shower with luke warm water and not rub it at all and best to avoid shampoo.You then pat it to dry out the excess and leave to dry in the air.The result is that not much hair fell out but my hair looked like it still need a wash Tony has just brought me a bottle of baby shampoo I will have a go sort of patting it into my head ,at worst it will just speed up the fall out.

  1. Just catching up on blog reading. Sending hugs and prayers. Glad to know that you tried a little sun printing. It was on my list of stuff to try this summer but my son has been really ill. Now we are being referred down to a London hospital as the local ones have no idea what it is. Take good care x

  2. I am so pleased that you felt well enough to have a go at the sun prints Jill! Hope the baby shampoo helps. Two of my old colleagues who had chemo had the most terrific wigs which looked fantastic - and both their hair grew back very prettily afterwards. Much love Julesxxx

  3. One of my bffs lost her hair from chemo and got two amazing wigs. She never looked better. I'm serious. People did not know that they were wigs and kept complimenting her new hairdresser!

  5. Hi Jill glad that you were able to get out and do some printing.
    A friend of mine used a wig and she looked fantastic. So I am sure whatever you chose you will look good.

  6. Jill nice that you have not lost the desire to be creative with everything you go through, my mother used a wig when she lost her hair after chemo, no one could see it was a wig.
    Warm hugs Anni
