About Me:
Well what to say...? I love sport, particularly cycling and rugby. I'm empathic and caring with a filthy sense of humour (which is an odd combination but it works for me!)

The best time of my life was when I went travelling and I hope to emmigrate one day. I live in Norfolk, I've never met anyone else with alopecia and have found the attitudes of the medical profession and some of the people I have met here pretty disgraceful.

However....generally I have a positive outlook on things, I only take 5 minutes to get ready in the morning and I'm very streamlined when I go swimming!! I love wearing my headscarves and refuse to wear a wig, if people have a problem with the way I look they can take a long walk off a short cliff. End of!

I would really like to get to know some people with alopecia here in the UK or anywhere else in the world.
Do you have alopecia?

    Hello Ellie!

    Yes, haha i do live in California however, Mum and Nanny live in Norwich! I often go visit them and spend quite a lot of time there. I hope you find some others with Alopecia in that area soon! I know it can be hard finding people with the same disease...
    I live in Los Angeles, and still its so difficult to find people in such a large city with Alopecia. Hang in there!!

    best, Kylie

    Hi Ellie,
    Everything is pretty good on this end.
    Goins on 4 years with the alopecia. Started as a small spot but lost everything within about 3 months. I'm currently at about 80% regrowth so thats pretty good.
    How are things with you?

    Hey Ellie,

    Go to a conference and facilitate a meeting! It's great practice for becoming a therapist. -Matt
