About Me:
Well ith as been almost a year I think since I joined the site. I find everyone here so supportive and friendly. You can't ask for more. My story remains the same- I continue to go through periods of hair shedding every few months. I DID have alopecia areata about 9 years ago, but with the lord's blessing I regrew my 2 patches and continued on with my life..I had a baby and experienced EXTREME shedding affter 3 months. My hair grew back in okay. I was satisfied. I keep going through months of on and off hair shedding. My head tends to be itchy and I know there will soon be a shed. I was okay for 6 months and again I find myself shedding and worried. I get so much support from everyone here and it makes me feel like I could be confident in the future if I do lose it all...I just want to thank everyone here and I hope to meet new people dealing with what I am going through.

    Hi Taline,
    Your too sweet! Thank you for making my day! I appreciate the compliment. I've been working out for several years now and its a challenge, but its also very rewarding. It's become a part of my life and i feel so much better when i do work out. Since my hairloss my self esteem and confidence have gone down hill but with working out it helps me feel a little better about myself. You could definately get into the shape you'd like it just takes a little patience and discipline.

    Thank you! I will keep my head up. I did it. I ran 6 miles and it was sooo worth it. I had so much fun. I'm a little sore and my knee is killing me but.. I would do it again in a heart beat!

    Hello Taline,

    How was your Thanksgiving? Sorry for not responding sooner, but I was out of the country. I just got back. I posted some of the pics on my page. How are you these days? How's the Alopecia? I grew eyelashes on my right eye, and I have all this fuzz on my head, but its been like this for awhile now and doesnt seem to be growing like I'd hoped. Oh well, what can I do :)

    Hello Taline,

    Glad to hear your doing well. Yes, my family and I were in El Salvador visiting my brother who is stationed there. We're actually Puerto Rican. I loved El Salvador it's a very beautiful country. How are things are you ready for the holidays? Take care of yourself and have a Happy & safe Holiday.

    Nice to meet you.

    At first when I started to lose my hair, it felt like the end of the world. I was even looking at suicide options, I am 23, I want to be noticed and have attention. After all the support I get from my family, co-workers, and my boyfriend, I realized, so what? is JUST hair. I should be happy that I have health, a job, and friends, and I never lost the ability to do what I always want to do is TRAVEL. so I am grateful I am still on this world. I hope you feel better too.

  • JeffreySF

    Hi Taline,

    Seems like Sat night is better for a bigger group.
    I read some reviews about Cha Cha Cha and they werent that good. No Reservations and not so good service. Do you have a 2nd choice?

    It'l all come toghether one way or another. how many in your Party? I have Mike, Matt, Yourself, Leo and I. Waiting on resonses from Rebecca, Whittney and Heather. Am I forgetting anyone? Oh Shawna too who I have never met but I know she is a Doll.
