My First Anniversary with Alopecia & My First Blog...Fast Forward Second Anniversary

Hello Friends,



It has been a wonderful year indeed. Unexpected and unpredictable.



It was an unusually warm and clear summer night in San Francisco. A night full of laughter and celebration with friends. It was July 4th 2007.



After the smoke and embers cleared I awoke and went off to work. But there was a suprise waiting for me. Something different. A small circle on my head appeared before me. I thought what is this? Had an ember of my Independence fallen upon… Continue

I am writing tonight in support of National Bald (now called International Alopecia Day).

This is an event for women with alopecia. The objective is to raise awareness and acceptance for bald women in society. What is asked of you is to organize, join or support a group of local alopecians…

Another Day

I've had a few rough days, actually a few rough months....Non alopecia related.



Leo's mother Helen is 83 and suffering from dementia.

She was living independently until last September. Her mental capacity has declined rather rapidly. We moved her to a Residential Assisted Living Facility but it didn't work out as she required more care.

We have since just moved her again to a small board and care home which is really nice. She is having a hard time ajusting to the change… Continue

Alopecia World According to Jeffrey
