I am 24 years old

And my name is Natalie

My life changed in 2010 when I watched my beloved Pop (Grandfather) fight his battle against CANCER.

Something I wrote when I was 22 and thought my world was coming to an end

Alopecia



I am 22 yo female, I am losing my identity as each day passes. This horrible condition Alopecia is an Auto Immune Disease that can be caused by stress and worrying or a significant event which has occurred.

At this current point of time I am not coping at all, I struggle with the day to day habits of making my hair look beautiful. Each day I worry that I will wake up from this nightmare with no hair. I feel ugly every morning I look in the mirror. I break down at times… Continue
