Dear Lori:
Hi, It's Cynthia and Taylor-Jean. I'm so glad to hear back from you. Tay started losing her hair at the same age as Alyssa. She too lost over half of her hair last year (each time has increased significantly), and she too is in 3rd grade. Right now she has her hair grown back to about an inch in length (the spots/areas that were lost), but 3 nights ago we found a new bald patch starting and growing bigger quite quickly. I went to the NAAF and ordered the DVD that they offer for free. I got 2 copies (1 for us and 1 for Taylor-Jeans school). I don't know if you already have it, but it is FABULOUS! It has given her some new confidence that she has needed sooo badly. I can't believe how much the girls have in common already. Take care and we will talk again real soon!

That is great news about Alyssa...It will be nice to see you guys again. I don't think my husband is going to come along with us either..I plan to toot around Boston for the afternoon anyways..See you Saturday.
Dear Lori:

HI Lori,
I'm trying to get a head count for Saturday. Can you please let me know for sure if you are planning to attend. Thanx a bunch. I hope you can make it. I can't wait to meet everyone. I have a little something for everyone :-) Hope to see you there.
Love and Hugs,
Dotty
Nice to hear from you. No, I have not heard from her teacher yet and I am upset about it. I sent a written note into school today with a copy of the email I wrote. So far, she has not come home unhappy. She loves her new wig and had pics taken last week. Her hair is growing in with color, but we have a long way to go before she will have enough to go without. Her eyebrows are starting to come in sparse white hairs. How is Alyssa? Have you decided to go to the Hair Club for a consult? I don't see her wearing any other wig as long as she needs one. At least for now.
Hi Lori,
Looks like September 13th it is. We are throwing out ideas on places. I have had suggestions of The Cheesecake factory, Vinny T's (Italian), and Firefly (BBQ). I was thinking around 11 - 12ish for brunch or lunch. Let me know your thoughts. I'm really getting very excited. I can't wait to meet everyone.
Love and Hugs,
Dotty
Hi again,
It's at the Boston Center for The Arts, 539 Tremont Street, Boston, MA 02116. It starts on Friday and continues through Sunday. I'm thinking that Saturday is good for our meeting maybe 10 or 11a.m.? My email addy is hottie_dotty@hotmail.com. It's probably easier to keep in touch that way. Do you have any Instant messenger services? I have MSN messenger, Yahoo Messenger, and AOL messenger. Let me know and we can actually chat.
Love and Hugs,
Dotty
Hi Lori,
It's just going to be an informal lunch or dinner. I'm thinking maybe brunch? I love going out for brunch. What do you think? Of course your daughter can come. I would love to meet her. I'm getting really excited and I will start looking into places this week. If you have any ideas, let me know. I will keep you updated.
Love and Hugs,
Dotty
Thanks Lori..The staff are super nice at the hair club and they nailed Sam's color just from pictures. We went back yesterday to trim it more and now it is a perfect cut that looks more like her old style...We went out today and bought some new hair accessories now that she can wear them again. Enjoy the rest of the summer. I can't believe we go back in less then 2 weeks..Cindy
