My name is Lauren Hards and i am 20 years old. I am currently living in Newmarket which is in Suffolk. I have a rare type of leukaemia called CHRONIC MYELOID LEUKAEMIA. I was diagnosed with the disease in September 2008, however I recently found out that I am going to have a Bone Marrow Transplant at the end of 2010. I am doing this blog so people can follow me through the transplant and to try and get more people to donate bone marrow.

wigs
i currently have a eminem style hairdo as i had all my hair shaved off a couple months ago as i didn't want to turn in to a self pitying mess when my hair starts falling out as i couldn't think of anything more depressing waking up to clumps of hair on my pillow. Anyway, it has grown back quite quick and so i thought i would dye it to match the colour of my wigs and it did turn out a lot more yellow than i hoped so i just need a chainsaw and a boiler suit and Eminem will have some competition lol. But it don't matter cos i am shaving it off again soon and after all the cocktails i will recieve in hospital it will grow back a totally different colour and style as to what it was before. i actually want it to grow back a nice ginger or strawberry blonde (the colours most people want to hide) but since wearing wigs all i have wanted is one like Bree (off desperate house wives) and a blue one that Katie Perry wears but cannot get them anywhere which is so not FAIR! i have i think 5 wigs which will have easily come to 2 grand for all of them but they were worth it, i can be a different person everyday and no one would know if you didn't know me. i think that by having a skin head and wearing wigs for the last 6 mnonths has deffo prepared me for hair loss cos i am not worried about losing my hair in a few weeks. i am also going to get some temporary tattoo on eyebrows as well cos i think i will not like having no eye lashes and eyebrows cos i will look like a potato head from toy story that needs bits and pieces of its face reattaching lol. i am sure that tatooing or drawing eyebrows on will provide me with hours of fun in hospital as i will end up looking like a drag queen lol. i have also purchased a rather groovy lepoard print turban thingy from the wig shop as it is speically made for people with no hair, i however, would not have paid the £25 for it if i had hair though! well that is about it really for hair loss and wigs for now just going to the hairdressers tomorrow for some of them snazzing up and i am quite tempted to get my hair shaved as well but then again i don't cos i do quite like my Eminem look, even if my boyfriend said i look like a lesbian! My hair is still better than his as i actually brush mine and he never does.
