About Me:: Bonjour!
I have been dealing with AU since 2002. Before, I had aa. It started when I was 2 yo. Becoming AU was a traumatic event for me: I've lost all my hairs in 3 days.

I've tried everything, from standard to experimental therapy with no success; I'm not seeing any dermatologist since 2003.

My main reason for joining this network is to learn more on how to deal and cope with AU. After all these years, I have the feeling I'm in a dead-end in regard to this condition. I hope that by exchanging and reading about others experience, it will help me to get over it.

Going to the NAAF Conference in Louisville was THE best thing I ever did for me!! See my blog to know why ;-)

OK, now, I little more about myself, beside alopecia..... I'm 40 yo, happily married with the man I love since 15 years. Life has blessed us with 2 beautiful daughters. They are the joy of our life.

I'm a pharmacist by background but since April 2006, I'm a full time mom at home.

Voilà!
Diane

Dear all, since this site is about diversity, below, you'll find my impressions about the NAAF conference, first in French, which is my first language and after in English. ************************************ Louisville, Kentucky. Pour la majorité des gens, cette ville, ce n'est qu' une ville quelconque aux États-Unis. Pour moi, cette ville est l'endroit où, pour la première fois, j'ai eu le sentiment de faire partie de la majorité. Pour la toute première fois, ma pelade ne m'excluait pas mais… Continue

Going to NAAF_1st time!

Hello to all, Bonjour à tous, I'll be going to the NAAF conference for the 1st time time year. I'm pretty excited about it. Although I've been dealing with alopecia (AA and AU) for almost all my life, I've only been with others alopecian on 2 others occasions and it was with small group.... I'll go by all by myself, my dear husband staying home with the kids. Who's from Montréal going? Suis-je la seule de Montréal à y aller? Looking forward to meet new friends Au plaisir de vous rencontrer!… Continue

The new job is a little busy in the beginning. Lots to learn. I help painters and carpenters to choose right materials for their works. Its all new for me so its a lot to learn.

I work between 7 to 4. I think its pretty good works hours.

I wish I could adopt another one but I am 44 yrs old now and the wait for China is now 5 years. Can you believe that ....5 years. I waited 2 yrs and that was enough for me.... Plus I don't have the energy that I had when I was in my 30's either....

What age were your daughters when you adopted them? Lauren was 14 months old. Right now we are wondering if there are bonding issues. She is so social and will go and ask for hugs from anyone. What were your daughters like?

How are things over there?

Roger.

At 1:35pm on July 20th, 2008, Lori said…: Ohhhh my goodness! I never thought I would find someone on here who also adopted from China! Wow! Congratulations to you as well! You have two lovely daughters. They are just beautiful.... When did you adopt your daughters and what province did they come from? So many questions...LOL... Lauren is from Fuzhou in Jiangxi province. We flew into Beijing and then in Nanchang and that is where we received her.....

Yes, It was early when you wrote me (4am)....its almost 5am now and im so sleepy. Yes, first day is very stressful until you learn everything about all new things. Ohhh so you have some vacation later. Thats nice.

I will try to take some late this year in november.

Take care, Roger.

Roger.

Mais avant internet , jamais je n'ai eu de contacts réels avec des gens comme moi. Alors tout m'intéresse, s'il y a quoi que ce soit à Montréal....fait-moi savoir ! Bye
