About Me:: I am 34 years old and live in Regina, Saskatchewan; I have had AUT for 13 years.

I have two cats. I enjoy spending time with family and friends and love hanging out with my eight year old nephew.

Like a lot of other Canadian girls, I love hockey and shoes (I cheer for Toronto and have over 40 pairs).

At 11:13pm on July 16th, 2008, Laura Zinger said…: thank you, Solange! I'm in a suburb 28 miles outside of Chicago, IL. Are you a midwesterner too? I love this blue wig! I actually have a green one too that I'm planning on wearing for this kids' filmmaking camp I'm teaching next week. The kids are going to go craaaaazy I think! It's reasons like this that I am glad I have a green wig. ;)

do you have any crazy wigs?

At 8:33pm on July 10th, 2008, Mike said…: Hi Solange! Thanks for the message. Everyday is getting easier and easier. I still wear a hat at work (mostly though because I am too lazy to shave off the patches everyday!) but I have been going out in public without a hat here and there. It's getting easier and people who I know are accepting of it.

I lived in Regina for 5 years where I anchored the news on CKRM, The Wolf and Lite 92 for 3 years before moving to Newstalk 980 and Z99 for a couple years where I was the city hall reporter. I took a promotion to management and transfer from there in 2005 and now live in The Battlefords (working for the same company -- Rawlco Radio).

I have searched for alopecia support groups in the province and haven't had any luck. Do you know of any?

Actually, I have two kitty cats. One is Brando (after Marlon), and one is Zsa Zsa. Zsa is new, and Brando doesn't appreciate her company very much.
Hugs, LeslieAnn

Weather still cold and wet here so looking forward to some sunshine. I'm 52 and have had alopecia for approximately two years now - virtually AU, just a little bit of hair remaining on the back of my head and other odd parts!! Still, we have to get on with life don't we. How are things with you?

He loves chicken and will sit in front of the fridge every Sunday after we have had lunch until he gets a share. He needs a haircut but it's too cold at the moment, as soon as the weather warms up a bit I will shave him. I'll take a photo of him after his cut, he looks completely different then lol.
