Yes and no. The majority of the conversation centered on wigs, but the undertones were about day to day issues related to living with alopecia. Barbara, the coordinator (hope that's the right term), was wonderful. She stimulated the conversation, not that there were many lulls, brought information regarding the upcoming conference, and shared details of the current push for legislation. Two hours just flew by.

I'm just wondering if talking about wigs is a major part of most meetings? That's all most people seemed to talk about at my meeting and to be honest even I found it slightly frustrating seeing as I've long abandoned my wig. Life's not about hair! (I understand, I just wish I could open their eyes).

Thanks Sherry for the comments and the warm welcome the other night. Yeah, the wig conversation was over my head...but seeing the positive attitudes of all the ladies, despite the road they have travelled, was the real take away.

Hi Tony! It was great meeting you at the NAAF meeting Thursday....thanks for coming and hope to see you at future meetings. I always wonder what a man with a a walks away with from these meetings because so much time is spent discussing all things wigs, so I'm glad to find your positive post. Have a wonderful holiday weekend!!

I will need to go to the naaf website and see if there are meetings in my area...that would be cool. Good job getting out there, Tony!

Hey Tony<br />
Glad to see you made it out to a meeting. It is great to be around people that share similar experiences and I noticed as well that everyone took to each other rather quickly. It's nice to see someone is trying to get wigs covered by insurance too. I'm not willing to take that on myself (I don't mix well with politics) but give kudos to anyone with the guts that would be willing to try that. Good going Tony!
