<p>That is now old news. I am thankful for alopecia. It has helped me learn to deal with change in my life. I am a much happier and healthier person today. I don't have to deal with self absorbed illusions of vanity, and have accepted the way things are as a gift. It has given me a great sense of gratitude and taught me a lesson of patience. All those struggling with alopecia, look at it from another perspective. You are unique. You are loved. You are alive. You are you.</p>
