And I wonder why my hair keeps falling out

Posted on April 21, 2011 at 11:00pm 9 Comments

So the last time I blogged I was 3 months pregnant and my hair had started to fall out again. Well it decided to do that wonderful thing that alopecia areata does and grow back and give me hope. At one point it actually started to get really full and thick and i had no spots. Then my little pumpkin was born (Hailey Darlene Burley-Heslop Oct 31st, 2010 thats why we call her our pumpkin 8lbs 13oz she was a big pumpkin lol) and then i noticed the back of my hair line started to creep up and up and… Continue

Pregnant and losing it all over again

Posted on March 17, 2010 at 9:04pm 3 Comments

So i found out not too long ago that i am pregnant and as much as it is a wonderful thing it is stressful and stress is not my best friend lol. I have only been with my boyfriend for two months and our relationship is still very new and this is a big unexpected surprise. We are both very happy and cant wait but there are still the concerns and worries of being first time parents at such a young age and in a very fresh relationship. Since i found out i have noticed my hair is falling out more… Continue

It's been too long

Posted on January 4, 2010 at 12:36am 1 Comment

Alot has changed for me in the past little while. When i first started on this site I was dealing with alot of emotions linked to my alopecia. I was debating on whether or not to go talk to a therapist and i finally did. I had a couple of appointments but found that talking to her didnt really help much (to each their own right) but I did it for my mom. I actually found writting in a journal helped alot more then anything, it was almost like taking all of it out of my soul and leaving it on the… Continue

And the stress keeps coming

Posted on May 13, 2009 at 11:16pm 0 Comments

So since the last time i wrote on here i was starting to deal with all my insecurities of my alopecia. Since then I have met a wonderful guy named John and we started dating each other. I still have not showed him my shaved head and i sleep with my wig on which can be annoying at some times. He knows about my condition and said when i am ready to show him he will be there for me. I just need some more time.



About 2 weeks into our relationship he started complaining about back pains.… Continue

Today was a VERY bad day

Posted on April 7, 2009 at 4:12pm 7 Comments

As i explained in my other blog I have been dealing with this for 4 years and just recently came clean to my mom about my true feelings about my alopecia. When we had discussed it further she asked if I would talk to someone about this. Today I went and saw my doctor about talking to someone about my feelings and that was really hard for me. My mom went with me and afterwards i felt really crumby. I feel like I have given up that i am too weak to deal with it on my own and that everyone i have… Continue

Hi Danielle!

It is a pleasure to "meet" you! I read your story and think you are one strong inspiring beautiful woman! I also had my first spot at age 20! Fortunately I have not lost all my hair- but often wonder if and fear that will happen. (currently have multiple spots)

Even now with just spots my mother will look at them- and tears will run down her face. She always says " If I could trade places with you I would in heartbeat just to spare you any sadness" It's a helpless feeling for our mom's to love us so much and not be able to change anything! But how lucky we are to have them love us so much! :)

my two year old nephews kisses them (calls them hair- boo boos) - I figure if that doesn't heal them nothing will!

I think Jeffrey's idea to join a support group is a good idea- any in your area?

I reccomend you seek out a support group and meet others going through what you are. it is a very emotional and inspiring experience.
I just joined facebook yesterday.

Look forward to getting to know you.
