Hi Eulalia<br />
When I finally shaved it was for the same reasons. I no longer could hide the spots and the time and energy it took to hide was exhausting. Congrats on your decision to take back the control. Hair is just hair. It doesnt determine the person we are. The biggest thing I found out afterwards was that my supportive friends said that after I shaved I looked so much happier...free-er. I hope your husband also notices this change in you aswell. I cant wait to see your pics and I think you…

Thank you Norm. It has been a difficult journey. Difficult to handle the things we have no choice but to handle along with the hairloss, going to see dermatologists and wondering if the treatments will work. People look at you weird with the spots, so shedding this scrap on my head won't be too far a stretch. As for an "album", I have a recent CD that has received great acclaim. My website is <a href="http://www.lilianel.org" target="_blank">www.lilianel.org</a>. Eulalia is my birth name and on…
Thank you Norm. It has been a difficult journey. Difficult to handle the things we have no choice but to handle along with the hairloss, going to see dermatologists and wondering if the treatments will work. People look at you weird with the spots, so shedding this scrap on my head won't be too far a stretch. As for an "album", I have a recent CD that has received great acclaim. My website is <a href="http://www.lilianel.org" target="_blank">www.lilianel.org</a>. Eulalia is my birth name and on many levels I've never owned my first name or used it. On this site, I'm being "me" totally and owning everything that's mine, name included. Ironically "Eulalia" is derived from the Greek, from the word "uvula". It means "well spoken", "to sing". I've read some of your responses to others and feel honored that you commented to my post. I appreciate the support more than anything. I am looking forward to posting a photo of me and my "buzzed" head.

Hi Eulalia... that's a very interesting post. "Resignation plus determination" are what leap out of it, and for what it's worth, I think you're doing the right thing, for the right reasons.<br />
What you said about your husband almost sounds like a statement of intent, as though you've also decided that he'll be going the same way as your hair. Well, it's not right that one person's continued state of equilibrium is dependent upon another's unhappiness, so if he can't handle the fact that people…
Hi Eulalia... that's a very interesting post. "Resignation plus determination" are what leap out of it, and for what it's worth, I think you're doing the right thing, for the right reasons.<br />
What you said about your husband almost sounds like a statement of intent, as though you've also decided that he'll be going the same way as your hair. Well, it's not right that one person's continued state of equilibrium is dependent upon another's unhappiness, so if he can't handle the fact that people don't stay the same for ever, maybe it really is time to call it a day. There's nothing wrong with you making changes to create inner peace... I hope he comes to understand that.<br />
<br />
It's also good to see you say that you're not sick.... because you're not. I don't look upon baldness of any kind as a disease either - it's merely a state of being, a way your body's developed, the same as anything else that might change as you go through life.<br />
<br />
So, congratulations on your decision to take control. I think the New, Confident You will find many doors opening that were previously closed! And I also hope Himself manages to "get real" and appreciate what you're trying to do.... oh, and don't forget to let us know when the album's out :)
