Hello All,

What the journey we go through with this thing called alopecia areata.

I've just returned from the www.naaf.org conference and want to let you know that once again I had another, yes another wonderful experience of my life! 

I celebrated with old friends and met new friends. 

Thank you all for you being you!!!

Love and hugs!

Jeff

Hello All,

There is a Chat function on Alopecia World that seems to be underutilized for direct communication and support.

I would be happy to be a host on a weekly basis. Lets chat and get to know each other.

Anyone interested?

Ideas or suggestions are welcome!

I've found this sort of communication to be quite helpful in the past. It can be fun too!

All the best to all!

Jeff

Hi Friends and All,

It's official, Ten years and counting since I found that little patch on the left side of my head.

Whirlwind of activity since my discovery of Alopecia Aerata.... The online chat here on Alopecia World and attending the www.naaf.org Conferences every year!

I'm happy to say that i've made peace with my disease!

Best of luck to all!

Shout out if you want to!

I've got great ears!!!…

Hi All where does the time go?

It seems like it was yesterday that i found that first little bald patch on me...

I'm 2 days into my 9th year with alopecia.

While it wasn't an easy transformation I'm making the best of it. Thanks to all here and www.naaf.org 

I've spent many hours over the years on Alopecia World. Helping myself and others to the best of my abilities. I've thoroughly enjoyed all the time I spend…

Hi All,

Oops I'm late again.

Okay, it's been 8 years since I found that little bald spot on me. July 5, 2007

Big Rollercoaster Ride for sure those first couple of years. The ups and the downs and all the sideways.

Thanks Alopecia World Members of past, future and present!

And thank you www.naaf.org. 

I'm enjoying the ride these days but when does the ride end?

 Thanks Everyone!

I"m just a little late on this post but it's now year number seven. Going on eight.

How time goes by so quickly. It seems like it was just yesterday when my alopecia came into my life. 

So tough those first few years. 

It gets easier day by day. Year by year.

Hugs to all,

Jeff

Peace!

Hello All,

Hope to see many of you wonderful people there.

Hi Folks,

Well...It's been 6 years today since I found that little bald patch on me...Picture it, July 5th 2007 I thought an ember of my independence had fallen upon me. But no it was Alopecia. i had never heard of it before.

It was pretty tough to lose all my hair within 3 months. I lost my identity and my self confidence.

I slowly started accepting what had happened after a year of turmoil.

How does a person deal with such a crises?

Luckily for me I found…

Hi All,

Just thought I'd write a little something today.

It will be 5 years tomorrow since I found that first little bald spot on my head.

Yes it's been five years since I first thought an ember of celebrating my independence had fallen upon me. Turned out to be Alopecia.

It's been quite the journey. It was so hard at first but with the support of my family, Alopecia World and NAAF I'm happy to say that with time and support it does get easier. Of course I still have…
