Hello new friends! This morning I woke up and felt very thankful for all the love and support I get from family and friends!!!

This site is so positive and it really makes me feel like I'm part of a community that I can really identify with. :-D

I especially like the fact that we aren't shy about our hair loss and in many cases enriches our lives. I've only ever gone bald around my house and private backyard, and can't think if there's even one picture of my with out my wig. I'm excited to snap a few photos to share. That definitely would be outside my comfort zone - however that's what keeps life interesting, right?!

Thanks again for this new circle of strength!

Hi - it's really amazing to meet so many people on line - I agree this is a great forum for coping with this strange condition! I always say to fellow alopecians there is no right or wrong way to cope with this condition - wig or not do whatever makes you feel great!
It is great to meet you and I hope we'll keep in touch!

:-)) Angela

Hi Orbit,
I love your wig gorgeous colour!!!
I agree this is a great site and full of positive people, ive been on a few sites dealing with this and a lot of people feel soory for themselves which is by no means wrong at all!!! but im one of these people who may have a bit of a joke about it and when you are down the last thing you want to hear is some english girl crackin jokes about giving her head a polish and drawing eyebrows on whilst in the middle of a dance floor in a rave club (i was sweaty and they had come off)
I dont go out without my wig but thats not because im embarressed its just personal preference and i also have a bit of a funny shaped head lol,
Anyway hope you dont mind if i add you as a friend
Hope to speak soon and also to anyone else. I can be a joker but im also a very good listerner and would like to help or try to help people who are in the same situation as myself I can be serious and understand it is a serious condition but hey there is nothing wrong with being lighthearted about it, laughter is the best medicine

Bonjour Orbit,
Interesting your comment about picture without wig.... I do not have a lot either and before joining this network, never showed them to anyone.... and now, it is on the web ;-)

"Comfort zone"....that's what its all about. I never seem comfortable about going with nothing on
my head this time of year. I was at my X's house for dinner sunday, she asked if I was going to wear
my hat the whole time. I took my hat off but ended up with a headache and a head cold. No more dinners
at her house till spring.
