Hi Gymtee, Hope all is well for you and your family. I was just scanning the site and remembered your son (my son is 9). How's things going? Casey got full regrowth in all areas but as soon as that came in he began losing the rest (unfortunately the entire top of his head). But the kids are strong. Anyway, Happy Holidays Margie

hi, gymtee hope your son braving up ok... does very much look like alopecia..very similar to how mine started many moons ago aged 14, im very sure with the correct steroid injections it will totally grow back as mine did....although i did then get several bouts of patches again from time to time..but normally could cover them over..with dodgy 80's hairstyles haha...main thing i can say is keep him active and mind occupied...at his age now it shouldntbeto difficult for you to do this...just so know, it wont necessarly effect other brother as i had a twin brother who never got it...stay safe and ask awayif you need to know anything.

Hi gymtee,
Yes, I am the contact person in AZ for NAAF. Nice to meet you here in Alepecia World! I know that it must be a very hard adjustment for your son, and your family right now. I agree that it will help a lot if your son can meet other kids like him. We will be having a support group meeting on Saturday, Nov. 15th at 10:00am. Please email me w/ your info, and I will send you the rest of the details about the meeting. Also, feel free to call me anytime. You can find my # through NAAF. sgomez33@cox.net
Oh, I will also be posting the meeting details on the 'Alopecians in Arizona' group page.

Hey Jim,

That sucks that the electrical storms are practically gone. I remember so many nightly summer storms. It was awesome to sit out on the porch with a cold beverage and hope ypu didn't get struck by lightining. Lol

Thanks for the well wishes

Jeff
