Hello everybody.  I'm not active in this group, as I am an adult with alopecia, even though I was diagnosed at age 7.  I am currently AU, and am writing a book about inspiring people and their stories.  I have an entire section dedicated to kids and how they react to it, and are fully living their lives.  My own experience was not as positive as I wished, and I am hoping to hear from kids who have made a difference in order to encourage others. 

I've just finished my website for "Head-On, Stories of Alopecia" and it's up and running. Please check out www.baldgirlsrock.com to get in touch with me, or contact me directly at alopeciaoutlook@gmail.com.  Feel free to "like" me on Facebook if you have an account.  My page is "Head-On, Stories of Alopecia".

I'm looking for additional stories to add to the growing number of phenomenal ones I have so far. 

The alopecia community has always been so supportive of one another, and my hope is that word of this project will spread like wildfire. I look forward to hearing your story.

Hi everyone I started a page called Dare to Be Different and would love for you to take a look at it and tell me what you think! Its about me being bullied because of my alopeica! I've been called names like Freak and Hairless cat! I decided to take a stand againt bullying and raise awarness about Alopeica and Anti Bullying! my link is www.facebook.com/camille.paddock I hope you all like it! I am also the Jr. Ambassador for GAM Global Alopecia Mission and I'm selling shirts to help raise money for them to find a cure! The shirts say Dare to Be Different and the back says Bully Free! Right now I have about 1100 likes on my page and have sold about 150 shirts! I'm not sad about having Alopeica anymore; it is who I am it does not define who I am! I love being me! :)

New here...my 10 (11 next week) year old son has had AA since 2008 with only a spot or two every Spring. He has now lost most of his hair. I am devastated, looking at old photos of him makes me cry, I am angry...I am trying to be strong for him but I feel like I am not doing a great job. How do I reconcile with this?

hi are there any teenagers out there? my 15 year old daughter would love a friend, we are in the uk so penpal, facebook? she has just got her first wig, loves it but feels a bit isolated.

Comment by suzanne on February 2, 2012 at 7:34am

Are there any parents with children around the age of 6. My daughter Emma is asking for a friend with Alopecia. We live in NY but even if we could just be pen pals that would be great.
