One vile tweet aimed at Janey said: "She should shave her head again even although it wasn’t required. Play a sympathy with major C."
Janey wrote to her followers on Twitter: "The @Beatson_Charity suggested that I shave my head as it was all falling out over my face and in my eyes but you just know better Debs, but I’ll always support trans people," she said sharing a heartbreaking photo looking worn down.
"Despite the gender critics mocking me for my cancer diagnosis I won’t stop supporting trans people," she added as fans rushed to the comments to support her.
