About Me:
I have had Alopecia since I was two, but varying stages. I had most of my hair until I was 32 and pregnant with my third child...( I had 101) ways to cover a bald spot, probably not much different than alot of you! At this time I went Totalis losing all my scalp hair...it did come back in after 2 years. I was so greatfull...but alopecia just kind of lurks in the background, plus having it so young I was bound to lose it again! About a year and a half ago when I became the hippest grandma ever...I went AU and have been that way since. I tried Immuno suppresents which made me achey and my legs swell...so the only thing left would be prednisone...hell no! I wont go...I know their are harder things in life than being bald. Last time I lost my hair...I had to wear my wig out, I wasn't comfortable with myself without it (and they have come a long way). This time I very seldom wear a wig...If I want to, or have to dress up I wear one...otherwise I just wear a dambanna. You can find fun ones online.

    Hi Glenda! How are you doing? It's been a couple of weeks now and I've been thinking about all of the great people that I meet over the conference weekend and I wanted to write to you and see how you were doing. I loved seeing pictures of your family on your page :) I think I am going to try to add some more pictures on my page soon. It's fun to share the good memories with others :)
