I have been in the Alopecia world,since April 2009. Trying , some good some hard days, what else can you do? My hair started falling out while I was working one night shift. now it is all gone. Funny, 7 yrs ago I raised $money & cut my long hair to donate to a little girl named Morgan with alopecia, now I have alopecia. ????? sometimes I feel bad, but then I am usually a positive person and like to look at my cup 1/2 full not 1/2 empty. I am married to an amazing man, who loves me for me, I have 3 boys that are great about it. So each day I tell myself it is ok, this is small in the grand scheme of life.
Thats too bad you haven't found any. You're right, people who don't have it, do not understand completely. Thats why I'm glad I found this site. I looked on the NAAF website and found a lady listed under Thunder Bay and called her. She said she's gotten a few calls but after only one visit, they tend to not show up again. So she hasn't had much luck in setting up a support group. I am going to visit with her and another AU sufferer at the end of this month. I will let you know how it goes and maybe if we get something going, you could come visit!! Have a good day!
