About Me:
I am Native American Cherokee Indian and the love of my life is Mexican. We have 5 beautiful children between the two of us. I have two from a previous marriage and he does also and then we have one together. I was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata on May 12, 2009. I was also diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Disease on the same day. Although I have just recently been diagnosed with Fibro, I have been dealing with the pain and other symptoms for 4 years. I am very familiar with Alopecia Universalis because my best friend Clara has been dealing with this since she was 12. I was the girl who watched her back in junior high school and beat up all the kids who liked to snatch her wig off and laugh. Now we get to look out for each other. I am very comfortable being bald. I chose not to wear wigs, I think that people need to get used to seeing me bald. I love my bandannas and that's just the way it is. A friend once told me "Hair is so over-rated!" lol (thanx C@). No matter what happens in my life, I have been able to hold my head high and swim to the other side. I'm not sure where I get so much confidence, but it's a great feeling to be able to be myself and not care what other people think. People may say what they want, it doesn't effect my life. As my husband says "I don't eat from your pocket so why should I listen to what you say." In other words, I take care of myself and you are not going to tell me how to live my life. I am here on Alopecia World to share my experiences and learn something new from someone else. Feel free to comment on whatever you feel like commenting on. I always enjoy reading someone else's experiences in life with Alopecia and/or Fibromyalgia.

My Daughter's Emergency Surgery!

Posted on July 17, 2009 at 9:30am 1 Comment

On Saturday June 11th in the evening, my 13 year old daughter Monica started to complain that she wasn't feeling well and her belly was hurting on the lower left side. She took a tylenol and didn't say anything else about the pain for the rest of the evening.

On Sunday morning she was again complaining of the same pain on the lower left side of her belly again. She went to next door to my grandmother's house for lunch (this happens every Sunday) but she came back within 30 minutes, telling… Continue

No where to go for national bald out.

Posted on July 14, 2009 at 9:30am 0 Comments

Hey guys... I was just sitting here thinking... sunday is national bald out day (Now International Alopecia Day) and I have no where to go. Maybe I'll go visit a friend or a family member or maybe I will venture to the store bald and see what kind of reactions I get. lol. I'm not really sure what exactly we are supposed to do for national bald out day. Any suggestions?

Days turn into weeks, weeks turn into months. I just can't understand why I am still here. I haven't seen my husband for 6 long months and I am almost at my breaking point now. Every morning I wake up alone and a realize once again that I must spend yet another day with out him. Every night I cry myself to sleep. No one understands. My family sees my cry, although I try to stay away when I cry. But, lately I have been crying nearly everyday. My own mother never offers any reason or comfort for… Continue

Mexico is getting closer!

Posted on June 29, 2009 at 7:12pm 0 Comments

For those of you who have been reading my blogs and such about moving to Mexico... I now have all of my loose ends tied up. I of course have my passports. I now have my birth certificates and my S.S. cards I have been waiting for. The baby is totally up to date on his shots and my meds are all squared away for the duration of my trip. The only thing that is missing now is the money to purchase the ticket. I have some friends rallying around me to try to help me raise the money by doing various… Continue

I'm Still Ok.

Posted on June 28, 2009 at 9:41am 0 Comments

Hello everyone, I thought I would post a new blog since I got a couple of emails asking me if everything was ok with me since I haven't posted or commented lately.

I am happy to say that everything is perfectly ok with me. I still have a bald head and I am still having fun with it! The thing that has kept me from posting is my Fibromyalgia. With this disease I get what is referred to as "Fibro Fog"... this means that it's hard for me to concentrate and finish a project, even as small as… Continue

Awww, thanks Kristen for the compliment. Thank you. The only reason why I said it's hard to believe is because noone believes me when I tell them LOL. So you're moving soon you said, I hope everything goes well for you in the move to Mexico. We'll surely keep in touch.
