That Answer in the Night

Isn't it remarkable that in 2010 we can put out our alopecian thoughts and fears (be they medical, personal or social) online...and that someone, somewhere, whom we have never met, from anywhere in the world, may be reading and answering at any time of the day or night? That someone, somewhere, may be putting out a little thought of hope or prayer for our situations, or have the very answer we need? Imagine how amazing it is for those of us who went through MANY years of no computer at all (before 1986?), or who never met another person with alopecia!

Keep connecting, everyone! This place is more special than you know, because we can say IT, reveal IT, discuss IT and STILL be accepted and understood!

I remember back in the 1970's before computers. What a strange world back then! -- nobody logged on, nobody connected around the world, nobody typed anything -- just amazing! I remember the 1970's & 1980's very fondly -- but the world is a much more INTERESTING place now with computers!! -- WE ARE NOT ALONE!! I am 52 -- and I feel like my life is just beginning !! --

I hear you girl.I got the courage to shave my head after seeing everyone on here. I now walk proud everywhere I go.If a little child can do it so can I!!!!!! I'm 52 and have never been able to talk to anyone about this.I now have a freind in publix he has the same thing and I've told him about the site. I hope to educate anyone who asks.

Ya, it IS nice. Nice to be able to talk to someone who actually understands. Who won't dismiss your fears and anxiety over extreme hair loss. New to this website but may find the courage to actually talk about it one day.

You are so right. Part of the healing process is just knowing you are not alone. Thank God for the internet!
