Hi Rachel
My 9 year old daughter has this same pattern of AA. We got the areas near her ears to regrow with those horrible cortizone shots over three month, but she has 2 spots now at the back of her neck and one on the left front near her part. It…

Rachael, I too have never heard of the 5 year span! Where did you find that? I also have a big patch in the center back of my head and is very close to merging with the bottom part that is gone. I also have a few patches on the left side of my head…

Maybe this is the road to dealing with my AA(which has been a long one). I fortunately have been able to hide my spots for 4 years and coming up to my half year it is starting to show, and I mean everywhere. Any angle I take a peak in the back and can see a spot smiling at me. Even in the front it is as if I have this receding hairline that people pretend not to…See More

Rachael, I know how hard it can be!
I think you will like the book. Will you let me know? I would love to hear!
I'm busy painting, getting ready for First Thursday here in Portland where I have a show.
Hugs!
