Hi Margs! I'm great, a bit stressed, but it's all good. Are you excited about your upcoming Alaskan trip?
Dont know a lot of Grateful Dead fans, but my new beau is big time. Phil Lesh and Co. will be at the Saratoga Performing Art Ctr. on July 19th. Will you be back? Interested...?
Hope you & fam. are well. Yes, been golfing often already:)
Happy Monday to you, Margs. Are you staying out of trouble? I am doing my thing and keeping positive. Actually saw my derm. dr. bright and early today. Do you send out flyers before you have a support group meeting? NAAF's first flyer is hard to beat.
Also, what else do you know about 'latisse'? I remember you mentioning that it changes eye color in it's pursuit to regrow eyelashes.
How are you and yours? Any chance of meeting me & a friend in NYC?
Back to the networking for the group...NAAF had sent out flyers to derm. drs. and NAAF members within a 100mi. radius. I guess upstate NY is more spacious than long, narrow LI. Some members had been in a group 10 or 15 yrs ago, but it was mostly moms and their young alopecians. Now the girls are HS-ers and all age groups had something to contribute to the group. Also, if I meet someone who knows a family w alopecia, I ask them to pass on the info about the meeting.
miss you too margs!! maybe we can meet for lunch or coffee someday soon?? ill be at the group meeting :) anything i can do to help, let me know!! hope everything is great! xoxoxo
Margaret- I never saw what you wrote back to me. So sorry to have missed your email...Hope you are well & keeping the meltdowns to non-existent. We had our first meeting and it went very well with 15-18 people showing up. All age groups, friends/relatives of alopecians, and great jr.high & high school adolescents. So good for all of us.
The next day, I was laid off from my job! Downsizing. That was two weeks ago and I am just trying to scramble in finding a position in this economy. It's almost to the point where I could care less about my bald head because I'm in so much new pain. A definite wtf.
The dating scene picked up for me somehow. People are coming out of the woodwork...and decent, active good-looking males. Have a second date tomorrow. What do I say? Should I mention the whole wiggie issue or put it off until a third date...women say wait, men say tell him. Oy ee vay.
Did you end up finding a wig that suits you? You mentioned that you could not find one that fit properly. I think it is just fantastic that you are coaching soccer and being a good role model for your girls. What age group are you coaching?
Hi to your hubby. I think of you often too. And remember...It is all good.

Hi Margs- How's my girlfriend from Long Island doing? I'm sure youre going crazy shopping for school clothes and supplies yet this weekend. Wanted to tell you that the calls and emails are flowing for the first upstate support group meeting. It will happen at the end of the month. People are coming from all over. Thank you for all your help and encouragement. I could not have done it without you! ttys, Robyn
I think NAAF started with the color theme last year. I didn't notice people doing this.
We fly in Thur and not leaving till mon afternoon.
Cant wait to see you!
