Well...now my daughter is losing her eyebrows. She lost most of the hair on her head...all except a few patches that just makes attaching her wig that much more time consuming. Now, she's losing her…Continue

My Daughter...

Posted on November 11, 2009 at 3:46pm 2 Comments

My daughter, Mikayla, has what started out as Alopecia Areata, but looks as if it is progressing towards Totallis. She is dealing with it very well...much stronger than I probably would. She is in the 7th grade this year, and this is her first year of public school, and a fairly large one at that. She's always been at a smaller private school. She is involved in the band, and LOVES school. She is currently wearing a synthetic wig, because she is not comfortable enough to go "natural", and we… Continue

My question is what have your children been exposed to and share in common? Vaccines? mold, toxins, exposure to pesticides,nutritional deficiencies, dental toxins, even parasites?.   All these things and more should be considered to get to the root cause of  your children's hair loss issues.   When the immune system is under attack something is causing it..question is how do you find out which of the problems mentioned above is responsible? Now there is new research and technology that can help identify the root causes of hair loss and underlying conditions linked to this problem. If you want more information on this matter please let me know.

Thank you Matt :) my daughter is 16. She developed au about 16 months ago. To say the least its been a journey but we are living and dealing as best as we can. Thank u for writing. I feel much better knowing I can talk to someone going thru a similar situation.

Hi Matt,
Thank you for your encouragement. Stephanie shaved her head at her 14th birthday party with 30 friends around her. Everyone was so supportive. Now she is losing her eyelashes and eyebrows. She only wore a wig to her choir concert, otherwise she wears a hat or goes bald. How are you guys? How is Mikayla?
