Hey Frank,

Stopping in to say hello and see how things are going with you.

Jeffrey

P.S. Here is the website to my Reiki instructor- she is amazing and has helped me grow as a human being so much. http://www.universalhealing.info/

Also, my Reki instructor also incorporates the Law of Attraction into her work; it's the idea that your thoughts and words and actions (basically your entire energy) attracts the same. So if you are a negative person who constantly whines, you will find yourself repeatedly in ill health and in car accidents, etc. Whereas if you channel positive thoughts and actions, you will attract people and situations in your life that enhance it and keep you successful and healthy. Here is a link to the book on Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/Everything-Law-Attraction-Book-transform/dp/1598697757/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1239686298&sr=1-1

They both kind of seem like a lot of mumbo-jumbo and nonsense at first, but both Reiki and the Law of Attraction have really helped make me a more relaxed, positive, and accepting person. Hope you enjoy it :)

Hi Frank! Thanks for dropping by and saying hi. We are Midwest neighbors! I am in Chicago once in awhile (mostly for shopping) and the city is such a fun place. I'm a really nervous driver though, so I avoid driving in Chicago traffic and take the Metra train instead. Are you a Cubs fan? I am a huge Brewers fan and it is always so much fun to be at Cubs vs. Brewers games and take part in the fan rivalry. It sounds like you have been all over the world- that is terrific! I am applying for internships this summer in Bangalore, India- I figure it is time for me to step outside of the US and give another country a try.

This website was such a great place for me to find because for the last 8 years I thought I was the only person on this planet who had alopecia! Talking with others has been the absolute best experience I have had in this crazy alopecia journey so far. Getting advice and words of support from others who have dealt with the same thing has helped me get through this more than I ever could have imagined. I am shaving my head for the first time this Friday and getting my first full lace wig on Saturday, so look for pictures in the near future! Take care and talk to you soon - Natalie

I'm happy to see you back Frank

Jeffrey

James

Hey Frank,

Whats up? Dont stay away.

Jeffrey

Frank, what's going on dude? things still alright? I got an email from Jeff Segal, a professional makeup artist who does eyebrow tatoos among other things, and I'de like to share it with you. I'll send it to you. He's in Chicago right now! I got his name from a referal from someone here who got their brows done by him.

Hey Frank,

Checking in to see how you are doing.

Jeff

Hi Frank, I was great meeting you last night. I enjoyed our discussions it's nice hearing the different experiences and views. I hope to see you again next month!

Hey Frank it's good to hear from you. Alopecia and life in general is a roller coaster isn't it? sometimes I feel great and then reality slaps me in the face like a giant hand; the reality of Alopecia. sometimes I would just like to be normal. other than that I am alright.
Last week sucked though...one of my spouse' friends died. So that sucked.

Hey have you seen Jeffrey's eyebrow pics? What do you think?

Frank
I first developed AA when I was about 10 years old. I was AU by 15. I did the usual round of doctors and treatments. When I was 15 I decided I couldn't take the disappointment of more failed treatments and so decided to stop looking and get on with accepting it.

But I can say I have never accepted it. I have just learned to live with it.
It is a constant in my life and if I was honest I think about it everyday and in most situations.

I have made the best of my life. I have succeeded in most areas except for personal relationships. I am perceived as being strong and for coping well with this condition and to all intent and purposes I have (or at least that is how I appear to the outside world). But in reality everyday is a struggle and more so lately. This is a very lonely heartbreaking condition.

It is great to have found this website, even if at times it is hard to hear people’s stories.

Bridget

This is a great site...
Frank,
What is the name of the big rock you climbed in Austraila?
Mike
