- Alright so .... I think a bunch of us know eachother but for those of you that don't ... i am Shannon I am 23 from Franklin,TN it is about 20 mins from Nashville. I am a full time student at Middle Tennessee State University. My friends are my world, i couldn't make it through anything without them, especially haveing alopecia. Iam pretty comfortable with Alopecia,though we all have out down moments!!!. besides that i am pretty much like a firecracker!!! i love to smile, dance and laugh!!! iam pretty hyper most of the time. At the conferences you can usually find me boucing around somewhere!!! Anyway ... here is my story...
MY STORy: When I was 3 my mom found a bald spot on top of my head. The Dr. said it would grow back and it did. When i was 7 I lost 75% of my hair on our move from New York to PA. Then lost almost all of it when I was 10 and moved here to TN. Some grew back but i always had patches till about high school. Probably for the past 6 years I have been Alopecia Universalis, which means I have no hair on my entire body. I have very few eyebrows but luckly my eyelashes grew back but are currently falling out again! I have to say it is the hardest stage of the disease. Having no eyebrows nor eyelashes makes you look somewhat like an alien! You have no expression to your face, what-so-ever. I guess all I can say is thank god for eyebrow pencils and fake eyelashes!!! Though it doesn't make the concept easier. Yeah, I don't have to wash my hair every morning, but playing arts and crafts on your eyes and etch-a-sketch on your face isn't the most fun in the world!
