I was diagnosed when I was 2 years old with AA. My parents tried everything to reverse my hair loss. My parents didn't believe in giving up, we went to support groups to learn the last treatments. The summer of my 16th birthday was tough, it was time to transition to a wig. It was an awful wig for many reasons. Walking into to school with a wig my freshman year down right sucked...
As the years past, the wigs seemed to improve. So did my understanding of. However, some how I have managed to live in denial for the last 15 years. I know sounds funny, how is that possible? Every morning I am faced with the reality.
I have created a local support group in Connecticut. I am excited to share, learn, laugh with like minded survivors.
