I am currently a sophomore at the University of Minnesota-Duluth! I play basketball here, and love it! I am originally from Milwaukee, WI. I am very inspired by Alopecia and have lived with it for pretty much my whole life. I can offer a lot of support, and I look forward to meeting others and hearing your stories and making new friends! :)
Hi Lindsay- As you can see from my profile, I'm much older but am from a village bordering Madison, Wisconsin. My family is originally from Brainerd, Minnesota, and subsequently Wauwatosa, WI. My question is if you attended the NAAF conference in Los Angeles. I usually go but opted to stay home this year because of the distance and death of my husband this spring. I'd love to hear about your trip if you went. Hugs, Susan.
Hi Lindsay,
I just returned from visiting uncles, aunts and cousins in Brainerd, MN, which is always a rewarding way to spend time away. Although I live on a lake here, the Minnesota lakes are much cleaner and, of course, it's more fun to enjoy them with family. You mentioned being a counselor so does that mean being with the children while in their NAAF day camp? I think it would be wonderful to have a Midwest support group event where we meet a couple of times a year at a midpoint, maybe away from big cities that could prove intimidating but what do you think? Hugs, Susan
