    Hi Paula! I'm sorry it took me so long to get back to you. It's been a busy couple of weeks. It would be great to meet someone who is going through the same thing. Granted, I'm 50 now and didn't start losing my hair until 3 years ago with the bulk of it going in the past 18 months. Many stressful things going on then. My family has a history of thin hair and I know your hair thins as you age but no one in the family can relate to what I'm going through now. I can't drive because I lost my center vision 20 years ago but I'm sure my husband would be willing to take me to meet up with you sometime. You aren't far from Katy Mills? Let me know and hopefully we can set up a time to meet! Take care.

    Hi Paula! Hopefully we'll be able to meet up soon. I've been out of town and now am getting back into the swing of things at home. Hope all is well with you.

    Hi Paula! We just moved here from Schaumburg, IL, but I am originally from Ohio and have lived in Dallas, Los Angeles, etc. We hope to be here for a while! Are you a pilot or do you work for an airline? I noticed all your plane pics. :) My hubby works ramp for United and I work full time from home for a medical practice. We live in North Houston, Champions Forest area, near the beltway and 249. Would love to get the Texas girls (the three of us anyway) together at some point! We are crazy with moving in at the moment, but once the dust literally settles would love to meet up. We had a great group of girls in the Chicago area that would get together from time to time to commiserate about our alopecia. :) I've been hairless now for over two years, all mine went after my first daughter was born. I have yet to put on a wig here though...it's too dang hot!
