What Not to Say to Someone with Breast Cancer
Avoid commenting about hair loss and wigs
Losing hair is one of the most emotionally distressing aspects of battling cancer. What most people don't know is that even though wigs seem like the most attractive option to use to hide a bald head, it can be incredibly itchy and uncomfortable. It's also a huge nuisance to have to deal with on a daily basis, so many people choose to simply let it be or use a scarf instead. Rather than suggesting wigs, try to simply comment on their beautiful scarf if applicable, or avoid the topic altogether.
