Hi George, I wanted to welcome you to Alopecia World. I can honestly say that we are a great community here and I hope you enjoy the time you spend with us.
Hi George, Welcome to Alopecia World and thanks for stopping by my page. I know what you mean about having neighbors. Before I joined AW, I knew there were a ton of people out there that had Alopecia, but I sure didn't think that I would find a community like this and be able to find people that are practically just down the street.

Greetings George. Where about did you stay and how long ago? I've been here since 2000. I'm originally from Boyle Heights then moved to Cudahy for a while, got married and moved to Downey.
I'm from 73, you look way younger than me. What year are you from?
I grew up in what's formerly known as Aliso Village. 1st & Mission.
Where did you stay here in Downey? I'm on 7th & Paramount. ReRe goes to Rio Hondo ELementary.
I've got two parties to go to for halloween - one friday and one saturday. The saturday one isn't starting until like 10 pm so I'm thinking of going to Disneyland in the daytime.
Wow, I'd have never guessed you were in your mid 30's. I guessed you were perhaps mid to late 20's. I have to get some picture of my fambam up in here.
So you're from Tepeyac area? You attended Belvedere? I went to Hollenbeck. Do you have kids?
I know Jr. High days were back in the daaayyzzzz, pero, do you know someone called Molly? Malitzin Gonzalez from City Terrace.
My little girl (ReRe) is doing good right now, praise God. This whole Alopecia situation is something that turned my, I mean OUR life around. Her dad and I have learned (try not to cry right?) that life is precious, everyone's life is precious. Si te contara talves dirias para que le pregunte? lol
Bueno, my beloved homie....lol what's cracking for Halloween? Are your kids "kids" or teens? I started my family when I was 30 y/o. My girls are 1 year apart.
Hey, George. Yes, Rebecca has been to a few derms. Currently she's being seen at UCLA. By far, this has been our best experience. All the other offices, including Children's Hospital LA basically told us that's the way it'll be.
I have made major adjustments in my life because of the Alopecia, thank God. I could never have been able to sit here and talk about it as I am if I not turned to God and reached to him. I was suicidal and que mas te digo.
Right now, her head is covered with hair. She has a very small portion that is still visible (scalp) but you can see the little fuzz on it.
I think it's a pinch harder for girls than boys. Don't get me wrong at all cause I'm not even trying to say that hair isn't important to boys/men, but you guys can pull it off better. What do you think? I can't imagine what your mom/parents must have felt back then. Now a days, look at us, getting support & 411 via the internet, etc. A que Alopecia, porque mejor no se va por un tubo.
I know how tough it can be going through alopecia. Especially as a kid.
How old are you now? Do you have a support group or have you ever attended a NAAF Conference? Alopecia World is a great place for support to.
I only had alopecia for a little over 2 years and most days are good ones. Hope things get better and better for you too.
I think everyone with alopecia should go to the conference. It is an amazing experience. Have you searched for a local support group or maybe some of the members here on AW are close to you.
hi!! the weather it's crazy!! in the morning when i go to the school i'm freezen!! but my school it's in the middle of the woods, so maybe that's the reason!!! and the rest of day it's hot!! and well, i'm ok!! i have a lot of homework =S!! and well you know, sometimes i feel great but other not so good!! but i know that one everything it's going to be diferent!! i know that!!
