My daughter is 8 years old and has had alopecia since she was 11 months old. She lost all her hair at once and her eyebrows and eyelashes shortly after.
I wanted thank you for responding.I hate to hear about being bullied but not surprised.I find when I take my granddaughter out we get a lot of stares and people ask questions if she has cancer.I took her to the park and this girl kept touching her head and I had to tell her to keep her hands to herself.I want you to know that,you are a beautiful girl.I tell my grand baby who I am raising,that she is beautiful everyday.Ask your mom,how would I go about getting a wig and if it is any financail help?
My 3 yr,old granddaughter has alpoceia,She lost her hair at 18months and shortly after her eyelashes and eyebrows.I would like to know,how you are doing in school,because kids and the adults can be mean?
