I'm a person that enjoys the outdoors and being active when time allows me to do so. I enjoy traveling more so to meet new people and learn cultures of others around our wonderful world, plus some places have great scenery as well. One of my favorite past times has to be riding one of my two motorcycles. I live in the big city of Houston, TX, but I'm looking forward to country living at some point in life. Hopefully sooner than later. My Alopecia hair loss story started later in life for me. It first happened around 2012 and it is happening to me right now in 2015. The first time I had just one or two patches. This time I've got several patches of hair that I've lost in spots and I just shave my head now until it all comes back. I was told by a doctor that it is mainly because of stress, and I can believe that because I am dealing with lots of stress because of work right now. If my journey can help another get through it, that is what I am here for.
