    Hi Danielle,
    I'm glad I could help.
    I reccomend you seek out a support group and meet others going through what you are. it is a very emotional and inspiring experience.
    I just joined facebook yesterday.

    Look forward to getting to know you.

    Hi Danielle!

    It is a pleasure to "meet" you! I read your story and think you are one strong inspiring beautiful woman! I also had my first spot at age 20! Fortunately I have not lost all my hair- but often wonder if and fear that will happen. (currently have multiple spots)

    Even now with just spots my mother will look at them- and tears will run down her face. She always says " If I could trade places with you I would in heartbeat just to spare you any sadness" It's a helpless feeling for our mom's to love us so much and not be able to change anything! But how lucky we are to have them love us so much! :)

    my two year old nephews kisses them (calls them hair- boo boos) - I figure if that doesn't heal them nothing will!

    I think Jeffrey's idea to join a support group is a good idea- any in your area?
