Hi Jessica,

Happy Independence Day!!!

Jeffrey

Thanks Jessica, Jack has become very curious about his condition over the last year and that is why I want to pursue it and find out if he has alopecia or a genetic disorder such a form of Ectodermal Dysplasia, which is what his Dr believes to be the case. I have made an appointment with his dermatologist to decide on which direction to take, a byopsy or genetic testing. I can't tell you how much your info has helped me to take that step and make it my goal this year to determine the reason for Jacks condition. Thanks I will keep you posted.

Jessica,

Thank you so much for the info. I was not given details about the bisopsy just that it would leave a small scar. I am familiar with the tool that you are refering to. Jack had a skin condition in which they used this tool to remove a few of the areas under his arm that were effected and the scars are extremely small. What were they able to determine from the biopsy? I was informed the longer you have alopecia the harder it would be to determine if you truly have alopecia from a biopsy and that is why genetic testing was also recommended. Since Jack was born with it, I am being told it may produce little to no results. Your comment has caused me to rethink the situation and reconsider. I realize that reagardless of the reason it can not be reversed however it would be great for Jack to understand why he has the condition so that he will know if it is something that he can pass on to his children. I am releaved to find that it is such a common condition after all, to be born with alopecia, apparently much more so then I originally thought. Any additional info you can provide me with is really appreciated it. What I am really curious to know is can it be determined if it is genetic from a biopsy? It has been years since my husband and I considered investigating his condition any further but you have helped me to rethink the situation.

HI Jessica!! Thanx for adding me as a friend!! Blessings to you!! Contact me anytime!! Lori
