Hi Lee, I'm so glad that my picture put a smile on your face...my kids have that affect on me also, lol. My girls love wearing my wigs...My oldest thinks she looks like Miley Cyrus (Hannah Montana). She's pretty much taken over that wig...I experimented with Ebay, ha ha ha...never again will I do that - unless I need a good laugh of course.
Have an amazing day!
Hi Lee, thanks for responding to my post. As far as the BF situation, yes, I would love to hear what you have to say. It is really hard for me even after all these years. I have tried downing a few beers to get the nerve up only to chicken out. You can post to my profile or feel free to email me at msarra0604@comcast.net

Hi Lee, That's funny u r in Jericho I am going to take a ride there next week to go to whole foods lol! I live out East near patchogue. Where do u play in your band in Queens or out on the Island? I am now not working but I do Volunteer work at the Patchogue Theater. I go to the gym 5 to 6 days a week. I lost a ton of weight. I have a Friend Carol who live around the block from me who has AU also. I meet her when my son developed it when he was 3. She was my support and rock while i went though it with my son God bless her!!!Hope to hear from u again. have a great day!
Maureen
Hi Lee, Nice to meet you. where on LI do you work?

I know a lot of people i n the music world, from my son. He is now attending Eastman school of music.
Hi
Thank you so much for the info... The price on the vacuum wig is not bad counting that i spend 1400$ every 18 months on mine. I have to think about it...
Have a good day !!!!!
hi there Lee, hope you dont mind me getting in touch, Rosy mentioned i should ask you some things about wearing wigs - i want to sleep in my for boyfriend purposes.
At the moment i do not have a vaacum wig.. im think about it now because i don't have a lot hair left.. i was not able to get one before because i had too much hair... peggy was going to make me one but i didn't feel like shaving my head. my current wig is held on by tape. i have a few different color extensions so i alternate extensions every so often. =]
Hmmm I would say the eyeliner took the most time...but because I had them done straight after having my brows tatooed I had to keep stopping and taking a breather so that slowed things up a bit.
Hi Lee! Sorry for the delay in writing ... my computer is acting up..I was so glad to receive your message. I haven't tried to get reimbursed from United Healthcare for a couple of years now. Thanks for the information. How do you like Vacuum wigs? I order online mostly .. Barb
Hi Lee! I have had AU for about 10 years .. I don't wear eyelashes .. I can't seem to master putting them on. I had my eyebrows tatooed years ago. I can't even tell that you are wearing a wig .. you look great. I saw some of your comments about a hair prosthesis not being covered by United Healthcare, I also tried and have United Healthcare also.
