Where are we all?

I went to Doctors the other day - not AU related - and in conversation he said he had at least 10 patients with AA/AU. Now this is just one Doctor in my local area, if this is an average number of AU/AA patients then there must be hundreds of us even locally but I have only ever seen a couple of people and there is no support group in our area or even close.
Thats the trouble, most of us hide (I personally wear a wig outside the house and draw in eyebrows and an eyeliner to hide the lack of eyelashes, plus I wear glasses) so we don't get the chance to talk to other people personally except through this site. Mind you this site is excellent.
