I am 44 years old and still have a problem accepting my condition, but I have came a long way.....i use to not be able to tell people i am wearing a wig now i can and even told some people that i do have alopecia. I am growing and thought some help from others who have alopecia would help me.
Hi, Trenia! I wanted to let you know about an event coming up in San Bernardino next month. Comedienne and alopecia patient Georgia Van Cuylenberg will come to the Feldheym Library downtown on April 17th as part of our Script Frenzy celebration. She will talk about her life as a comedy writer, her transition from standup to screen and documentary writing, and her landmark documentary "Baby Let Your Hair Fall Down", about her battle with alopecia. For more info, call the San Bernardino Public Library at (909) 381-8215.
Trenia I am so sorry i havent been in contact with you,but you are still in my thoughts and i will be in contact soon. Happy Valintines day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Trenia, Iam so happy you responed back.Im sorry your family wasnt understanding of the alopecia. I would luv to exchange phone numbers. I am looking for new friends.(exspecially with alopecia)Because i recently lost a long time friend,that found it amusing to make fun of my alopecia .I had to let her go!!!!!!! So anyway.....Please feel free to keep in contact.
Hi Trenia
I know what you mean about the Christmas shopping. I sometimes feel like tearing my hair out. Some people are just hard to buy for. Littlies are the easiest because they love everything don't they?
Glad that your sister is in good spirits. I think being positive makes all the difference.
Look forward to seeing a picture of your 'klan'. :-D
Take care of yourself and hope that the shopping isnt too bad for you.

Trenia,
Wow - what a woman you are! You are an inspiration :-) All the very best with your studies. I know you will do very well - and how rewarding it will be for you. I think helping other people is admirable and it takes a special person to be a social worker. Just down your alley I think.
Jon is going well. He agreed to enrol in another school for next year. He decided to do that this week, so I took him on Monday to see the principal and today we went and got his uniforms. His friend that he has been doing things with lately goes to this school. Jon seems to be very happy with his decision. It is certainly a step forward for him at the moment.
Because Jon is happier I am more relaxed and thankful that he is trying to dig himself out of the hole that he has been in for the last 6 months.
Thank you very much for your prayers. I believe in the power of prayer and I believe that is why Jon is moving forward - because of yours and other's prayers.
Our prayers are with you and your new endeavour. Our thoughts and prayers are with your sister as well and hope that she is travelling well. I hope that all your family are well.
Susan
