Please give me some suggestions to help my daughter:)

My daughter was just diagnosed with Alopecia and I can see it is going to be devastating. I am supportive since I have it myself, but I understand how a female might feel a lot different. If anyone would like to be a pen pal for encouragement I would be so appreciative!

how old is your daughter? age can play a huge part on how the person chooses to accept having alopecia. also, it depends on his/her personality.
tell your daughter this --> one of my godfather's friends once told me, "God created a few perfect people on this earth. The rest of them He covered with hair!" ...although no one is "perfect" I still got a good laugh at the saying.
i diagnosed myself first and then the doctors did a few months later. I wish I didnt wait to shave my head. the doctors will give you false hope. don't let your daughter go through the pain of having to watch her hair fall out slowly.
its like band aide, just rip it off and get it over with. it takes guts to do it, but with a support system anyone can do it!
I would love to help your daughter in any way that i can.
