Hair cancer?! Will have to Google that one. You need a costume or at least a shirt.

I doubt hair cancer is real, but anxiety disorder definitely is!
I would totally wear a shirt about it 🙂

All four of my kids had lice in 2010, and then the wee ones got it again in 2014! Lice is a wretched scourge! >.<

Yes, you definitely need the shirt. There needs to be a cure for anxiety disorder. Not a pill, just a cure. One that makes it go, POOF! all gone.

My sister and I both have problems with our skin irritation. As a former foster mom, I am aware of head lice and the way it itches. For years I feared, irrationally, that I had head lice every time my head itched. It is a memory I will not easily forget. However, after discovering one of my foster kids had hair lice -I never let it come in again.

I’ve been there! Not with the hair cancer fear, but fearing the itching was lice. As a young child I got lice from someone at school and that awful experience still haunts me today, over 30 years later.

Recently one of my nieces was having a problem with the lice. They were coming for a visit and my sister in law almost cancelled because she said she treated the girls and was afraid I would freak out. I checked her head every night and didn’t see anything, but during and for about a week after, my head was always itching. I even changed shampoo, to see if it would help. I didn’t have the lice, but isn’t it great how your freaking mind makes you think things are happening, Paranoid!!!

Audrey brings a headful of lice home from school about once every two months, it’s a total pain, we have to wash all her bedding and treat her with that horrible oil stuff.
