I hesitate to put our story out there because I'm not sure how unique our situation is, and because I know we can lose ground anytime, but Nikki's hair is almost all back. The very last hold out spot is showing signs that it will fill in. Most of her spots have thin fine coverage at this point. We had lost about 1/3 of her hair by September. She is a former micro preemie and through my research I came up with a theory that one of her meds was causing nutritional deficiencies. Long story short, we started giving her tiny amounts of aqueous zinc and we got our first signs of regrowth within 4 days. I'm praying she can get off her meds soon but until then at least we are addressing one of her issues. She has also started to grow better, gain weight better, and is sick much less frequently. Again, not sure if this story helps but at least food for thought about different causes for alopecia.

oh, this is such wonderful news to hear. Thank you Angie for telling us that. I could use some good news about Alopecia. I feel as though we are a lost cause many times and no one is working for it. I guess because we don't hear anything about it in the public...at all. Thank you for saying this. I am curious to see where it will go. The NH study? You've done this? What is involved exactly. I have been debating it. How is little Gracie doing by the way?

Angie - I really hope that comes to fruition. I thinkt he teen years will be the worse for our kids. I hope they find a cure and that it has no side effects!

I am not planning on going to the NAAF conference. I think that it is really expensive and I can't afford it for me not to mention my daughter as well.
Comment by Mya & Christine on February 12, 2010 at 8:45pm
Does anyone plan to go to the NAAF conference in June? We are new with alopecia and we are definitely going to Alopeciapalooza, but I am wondering if I should go to this one, too.

I had no idea how many people have AA. when i came up with my product i thought of kids and teens who suffer mostly from cancer. It open my eyes

The most ironic thing is that I saved her stem cord cells when she was born. I keep thinking that I could be sitting on a cure. lol

I can relate to you Monique, I feel the same.
