My granddaughter has just been diagnosed with Alopecia. It is breaking my heart to know what she will be going through, I thank God that she is not suffering physically, but emotionally my be worse.
Yes, a lot of research is going on right now. I would guess that within five years there will be a treatment that really works.
I know how cruel kids can be. You might want to check into the free School Pack that you can get from www.NAAF.org that includes an informative video that can be played for the teachers and kids at her school. When children understand more about the condition, they usually stop being cruel.
When you go on the National Alopecia Areata website I gave you, www.NAAF.org, you will find answers to many of your questions. There is a lot of research, a lot of information and a lot of support!
