I'm so sorry for the negative experiences your daughter has been having.
Alopecia can be hard. I have had it for about 30 years. Let me know if I can help with advice or support. One thing that you might be interested in is my book, written for women and girls, called "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" (It just won two national awards!) It has a lot of good info in it, it can answer many questions, and it's a fun read, too. You can find out more on my page. It's available on Amazon.com, and on this site under "Bookshelf."
Let me know if there's anything else I can do! I am here to help.
