    Hi Helen,
    I will be 60 in October. I have had alopecia for about 2 month or so. Have an appointment with the doctor in 2 weeks. I can't believe I have lost so much hair in such a short time. I hope I can get some answers when I go. I also have support from 4 children, my husband, and 4 brothers and 2 sisters. As soon as I tell all of them. My daughters and my sisters know. Also my husband, of course. He's not sure what to think.
    Please take care. Will talk soon.

    HI - we are organising a get together in Auckland on the 4th of October from 1-5pm. I know it is far but if you are interested in attending drop me a line on here and I will get back to you with directions. Will be really nice to get together, meet other alopecians, make new friends and have some fun.
    Look forward to hearing from you. Kath
