WHAT DOES NOT KILL YOU MAKES U STRONGER

Profile Information

Relationship Status:: Married

About Me:: I have been battling this disease for as long as I can remember. While I am not ashamed to tell anyone I learned ways to change the appearance of someone with Alopecia. I recently discovered that my child has it and through the struggles I face she is stronger and bolder then I ever was. This disease teaches you about strength to be different from others and self love and acceptance.

Do you have alopecia?: Alopecia areata

Are you age 18 or older?: Yes

What is hair?

Posted on December 23, 2010 at 3:30pm 3 Comments 0 Likes

I had the most amazing morning today.. It was super windy as I got out of the car. My husband who is amazing says with a straight face. Is your hair going to come off and offers me his hat.. I thought that was hilarious because mines is bonded and nothing pulls this mess off...

It got me to thinking about the journey I have endured. 15 years ago I progressed from AT to AU and thought it was horrible as a teenager now I think it could have been worse. What is hair? It is…

Are we in Control ???

Yesterday, while rummaging through my closet looking for Winter shoes I wondered is Alopecia my burden or had I let it burden me? I thought I was lucky I learned to take this negative and turn it into a positive. While there are definately days when I would rather be quote "normal" I have done all the things that I wanted to do. I thought does everyone on this site now that this is not a reason to wallow in shame but to accept the challenge and continue to fight. I think are we not all… Continue

A small victory

I have been praying for my little girl! While I don't mind this condition, I don't want her to endure this harsh world. Children can be cruel. She was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata like 6 months ago. To think I was in total disbelief because this crazy condition has been a family trait. I am the only one to ever have AU. All that to say I cried many days for this child because I remember the hard times.

She reacted to topical treatments within a matter of months, something that… Continue

A poem for little one....

I sat at work and and realize I am having a tougher time with her AA then she is... Is it wrong to be a parent who wants their child to get better? I wrote this to my child in hopes she will one day know what I felt as she went through this ordeal.

MOTHER’S LOVE

Everyday I fight to be the person she needs me to be

When deep inside I feel like I am dying

Lost in a world between life and reality

I sit and hope she is stronger than me

I'm new to the site and came across your profile. I know it's difficult for you to see your child deal with that but what a blessing that you can be a source of strength for her. This has been my biggest fear with my children and now i feel like there are a lot worse things that can happen and I hope I would be better equipped to help them deal with it than my parents were. Anyway.... love your pics. Your hairs looks great.

At 3:32pm on April 27, 2010, Tray (Jazz's Mom) said…: Hi Trina. It's your long lost friend. Hope all is well. We have some catching up to do!!! I want to see photos of the wedding! I know you were beautiful!
