Awareness!

Last Year for the Month of September I collected Donations through my work to send to the NAAF. This Year Im taking it up a step! I have ordered 500 Alopecia Awareness bracelets that I will sell to my customers @ $2.00/ each. My Co-Workers donated the money to buy them so we will get a %100 profit :) I hope to sell them all! Anyone Else doing fundraisers?!? I find it almost exhilirating to be doing something to help further the research. Every little but helps. If you recieve newsletters from… Continue

NAAF Conference

Reading all these posts about the upcoming conference have reminded me so much of my awesome adventure to the USA to go the conference in Oakland in I think 2000.

I was so lucky to part of a site at the time called AlopeciaKids.org (which I don't think is going any more) - the owners of the site put together some money to pay for my Conference expenses and gave the awesome opportunity to go - I don't think I will ever be able to thank them enough for it.



Going meant the world to… Continue

Facing My Past.

In high school I had a really hard time.People treated me badly because of how my Alopecia made me look,I just couldn't win with them.I tried covering it up with wigs and that made them talk behind my back and tease me,then I tried wearing bandanas and hats and it didn't change a thing.I never went to school without my head covered because I was scared of what everyone would say and how everyone would act.After high school I would run into a lot of them and they were all nice to me and some of… Continue

Global Warming in Prince George Day

So this morning I woke up with a little rain, then beautiful radiant sun shine for a few hours, a bit of hail fell out of the sky for a little while, then beautiful rays of sun shine, then a sprinkle of snow for a little while, and a hot sunset... last night the building was humming off its foundation with hardcore wind... and now the lights are clearly twinkling over the City as folks get ready for bed... Such is life in Prince George, British columbia! Tomorrow morning I expect a bank of fog… Continue

Taking a Moment to Play

My hands are shaking as I try to type this blog post. Not because I'm upset or scared about anything, but because I'm elated. I've just finished an impromptu dance party with my girls, and I'm exhausted. I was surfing this site, and decided to let my playlist run through all 16 songs. The three of us turned it up loud, crammed into the tiny computer room, and danced ourselves silly. I'm so glad that we had time to be crazy together! I'm so glad that I took the time to be crazy with… Continue

Have you hear about Rio Hair? It happened in the USA back in the early 90's...

My first encounter with Alopecia was back in 1993 when I was dying my hair and perming my hair like crazy. And I got a brillant idea to try this crap I saw on a late night info-mercial about a hair care product call “Rio Hair”, it was suppose to be an all natural product to relax curly hair. Yeah well, silly me bought into that “infomercial” and purchased a kit. I put this “all natural stuff from Brazil” in my hair and guess what happened...



The spots started a few days later and I… Continue

Random Stuff about Me

So,



I'm currently sitting at work - on what should be a wonderfully long easter weekend - however - I am instead spending my time in an un-airconditioned office, waiting for some people to complete their work so I can do mine. Yay.

Lol - enough of the complaining - it has however given me the time to make my first blog post ever.



I heard of this site from my friend (and leader of the Queensland Alopecia Areata Support Associate) Angela, and thought - wow - I must… Continue
