I'm continually discovering the beauty of baldness. I've experienced "spotty-balding" since being diagnosed at age 11. Just after turning 24 I lost all of my hair. A humbling experience that has helped me to discover so much about myself and the world around me. http://twitter.com/jillkathleen
thanks for the friend request!! Hey my in=laws live in Ind. Noblesville do you know where that is? How are things? I just love your outlook about Alopecia you are a very positive person I need to take some lessons from you.
I think so, they are pretied and verrry exspensive .The beaubeau s are beautiful. They make it look easy to change the look. I want one but the price!...yikes!
Hi Jill you have a beautiful smile, and yes I will enjoy watching it snow...and Happy New Year to you!...a whole year that I have been divorced and oh soooo happy.!
Happy Sunday to you as well, nice to meet you. So far 2009 seems ok, just waiting to see what our new president is going to do with this country. good things?.. I hope *fingers crossed*
I FIND MY SELF FEELING ADMIRATION AS I READ YOUR STORY, I WISH I COULD HAVE THE COURAGE YOU DO. I AM EXPERIENCING MY 2ND ALOPECIA OUT BREAK AS I LIKE TO CALL THEM AND I FIND MYSELF FALLING APART ALL THE TIME OF JUST THE THOUGHT OF BEING BALD WHICH IS WERID I NOW ITS JUST HAIR AND IT DOENST DEFINE YOU BUT I AM TRULY SCARED AND FELL SO ALONE RIGHT NOW.. I JUST WANTED TO THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR STORY AND GIVING PEOPLE LIKE ME HOPE THAT I CAN FIND AWAY TO DEAL WITH THIS YET AGAIN. THANKS AND GOD BLESS I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST WITH THIS HORRIBLE DIORDER :)
thank you. i hope that you have a great weekend to ..hey i have a question i was diagnoised when i was 16 with one really big patch on the crown of my head..and now at 26 i have another atch is it possible to go from just haveing AA to having AT or Au?i agree i think the hardest thing about this disorder is all the uncertainty of it its like playing a gussing game only just when you think your going to win bam you loss again.so if you dont mind my asking how many times did you have spots b4 you lost all your hair i find my self worring all the time and since noone i know or anyone in my family has this noone knows what i am going thru..you know and when i ask questions with my doctor i always get the same uneasy answers well i am not sure whats going to happen we have to wait and see ...like we have a choice right (is what i am thinking..lol). well either way i am glad you took time to share your story with me and i wish you all the best in coping with this crazy disorder...lord knows i am trying too..lol. well thanks again and have a awesome weekend! :)
thanks for answering that for me...i know it was personal. i am finding comfort in knowing i am not alone but i have to admit i am not coping well at all...which is weird for me i am usually the strong one that holds everything together in the family and this has hit me soooo hard but last year wasnt that great for me i had alot of bad things happen and i think this was just the breaking point for me..i know i am such the drama queen as my mom would say..lol. well yeah would luv to chat some time ..that would be cool.thanks again for helping me understand this condition better it gives me more peace of mind than you know!!! also i want to say i think you are a very strong individual for coping as well as you are and i hope one day to be able to cope and accept this as you have ..you go girl! you rock!..:)
things here are good cant complain i got happy healthy kiddos and a great hubby. so things are ok i havent had a breakdown in count it 3 days...yea me!!lol...there for awhile it was like an all day thing..i would just cry like thats going to help right..lol. but yeah my weekend was good got some much needed stuff done and now i am just trying to get ready for easter. how was your weeekend? well gotta go my lil guy just woke up...but thanks for checking on me it means alot!! take care and please keeep in touch. thanks again.:)
hi jill think you look really good bald you seem to have a great attitude ihope i have learned to embrace havingalopecia the same way all the best jeff
I loved your sharpie marker story. I am teacher too. I am on sick leave because of a bad flare of psoriatic arthritis. SInce this time, I have lost so much of my hair and still have. No one from school has seen me. I hope for the kind of courage you have!!!
Hey Jill,
I stumbled upon your wedding photos -- you look so gorgeous in all of them! I just got married in July, and I *wish* I had taken photos with my wig off. Would you mind telling me where your wig is from? It looks beautiful!
Best,
Emily
Being married is wonderful! Thanks for your comment on my photo. I think figuring out a "wedding hairstyle" was perhaps the most stressful part of wedding planning!
Happy birthday and a blessed new year - newly wed; that's wonderful. You wrote somewhere that you are gifted in many ways. Certainly you are. And you are a gift. Celebrate nicely!
Hello Jill,
Happy new Year.Such beautiful photos.I especially loved you without hair in one of your wedding pics.
Thank you! Thank you!
You are Beautiful,,,
