- About Me:
- Lover of life, trying desperately to deal with what I've been presented: mostly awesomely GREAT things (a wonderful husband, a great career path, friends and family that mean the world to me, an open heart and mind); and a few things that are not so good which are getting the better of me. This would include hairloss, which some days consumes my thoughts; other days I get excited about all the funky wigs that are out there.
I'm not really sure why I have lost 3/4 of my hair in two years. I think it has to do with a lot of emotional stress from work plus adrenal and thyroid conditions. The hair situation coincided with other symptoms of hypo-thyroid issues, so my gut tells me it's connected to that. What's scary, is that no one can say for sure.
What I've gained is a new lens through which I see other people. I am more compassionate and less judgmental than before. I realize that every person has his/her own battles and insecurities but what I measure now is how people choose to handle themselves amidst it all. I hope that I can find a way to be a peace with this and still feel beautiful and act like a beautiful person.
