I recently became involved in a book project about breast cancer survivors. Although I don't have cancer, those with Alopceia often are approached with that very question. The author invited me to participate in order to represent one of the struggles many women go through in dealing with this disease. I'm also thrilled at the fact that this book will help bring more awareness about this condition. It was very empowering to write my story and recall the stages I went through on my journey.… Continue

Hello and welcome, Laura!
I'm sorry you're having a hard time with alopecia. I know how hard it can be; I have had it for about 30 years. You might want to read my book, "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" It will give you a lot of helpful information, including research, medical, treatment , inspirational stories from other women, and some humor, too! It has received two national awards, including Book of the Year. You can find out more on my page. It's available on Amazon.com. Let me know if there's anything else I can do! I am here to help.
LeslieAnn
