Profile Information

About Me:
When I was about 16 months old my hair starting falling out. It started from my head but within a few months I lost my eye brows and eye lashes. My parents knew what I had because my dad also has Alopecia Totalis.

My hair has not grown back even though we have tried creams, foams and liquid steroids. I have learned to accept my Alopecia and want other people to be able to do the same.

My goal is to travel the country interviewing one kid every other week and share the experience with everyone. I want to be able to provide each kid with a "B" Yourself hat or sponsor a wig of their choice.

I think talking about it and telling others what it is will be a good start:
Alopecia areata is a disease that affects the hair follicles, which are part of the skin from which hairs grow. In most cases, hair falls out in small, round patches about the size of a quarter. Many people with the disease get only a few bare patches. Some people may lose more hair. Rarely, the disease causes total loss of hair on the head or complete loss of hair on the head, face, and body.
