I see that you're from the Jackson area. I have a petition filled out to present to Mark Schauer...I believe we share him as a congressmen. ;o) Would you be interested in collecting signatures and going with me to present them to him? We are hoping to get Mark Schauer to co-sponsor HR1142 (bipartisan bill in the US House that would make it easier for a person with AA to get medical coverage for a wig). Let me know if you're interested in doing this!! Thanks so much. ;o)

Hi there..my name is Mallory and I'm from Michigan. Just looking for some others with AA around the state. ;o)

Hi April, My name is Jamie. I also have a daughter that will turn 6 tomorrow. Zoe started kindergarten last year. This is coming from an experienced mother. if she is comfortable then dont make her wear a wig. she will be more embarassed and ashamed if something happens at school and it falls off. My daughter wears colorful bandanas to school. They all know she lost her hair and why. The teacher asked me if it was ok for her to take it off. I said yes if she is comfortable. The 2nd day of school she took it off and Zoe herself educated her friends about Alopecia. I have spoken to Zoe about Alopecia so she is very edcuated herself. So if someone says something she can tell others. I was a worried and concerned mother. But when I look at my beautiful bald beauty She is no different than any other child in the world. Actually I think she is the lucky one. She will never have to shave her legs, her arms, bikini lines. When school dances and things like that comes up she can do anything she wants. So my opinion for you is to tell your daughter everything she needs to know about it. Let her go as she is. She is a beautiful little girl. She already looks brave to handle all. Good luck Alyssa with kindergarten may God bless you everyday.

Thank u for letting me meet such a precious little girl... God Bless :0)

your daughter is lovely xxits hard and i know how i would feel if it was my child i have been bald since 7 and now 45 some times it is easier if it happens young u get so used to have n no hair or wearing a wig u forget or i do that every body is not the same kids are so adaptable i did every thing when i was a child i wore a wig from the start thats what i wanted an i chose a long long farrah fawcett one lol my mum could not change my mind obviously every one knew it was a wig . i wnt swimming in it just pulled it tight down over my ears like a hat lol i found u can swim under water and dive in head first but the hard bit was come n up again the wig would come off i also was a fast runner so again wig down over ears like a hat and the same with gymnastics ther will be hard times and sad times but u all will get through it my mum told me it doesn matter what any one thinks of u as long as your family and friends love you the rest can go to hell x i was forever getting into trouble or my mum when i was a child i would stare back or ask if the wanted to take a picture lol
