Here's the skinny on my blog... I've been battling female hair loss for the last three years. Instead of continuing to hide it from everyone (which has led to depression and anxiety disorder), I am taking control and announcing it to the world! If this blog can help one other woman deal with the same issue, I will be happy. I'll be posting anecdotes, updates, experiences and advice so please follow me to show your love and support.

Inspiration of the Day

Even though I already posted today, after watching The Ellen Show at lunch today, I had to post again. One of her guests was JR Martinez who is an Iraqi war vet turned soap star turned Dancing with the Stars contestant. JR was in a military vehicle that hit a landmine and he was trapped inside and suffered third degree burns over 40 percent of his body.

His positive outlook on life is what I aspire to be like. He believes that things happen for a reason and if we say positive one day we'll find the reason. He aso admitted that there are some days that ae very hard but you can get past them. Every day is a new day and there are reasons to enjoy each and every day. If you haven't seen the clip, you should watch it on Ellen's website. What an inspiration!

Hey Sis

So proud of you for deciding to share your struggle and strive to help other women in the same unfortunate situation. I believe things happen for a reason too and you must be the reason I decided to grow my hair out 3 years ago. | always intended to donate my hair for a wig and I would be honored if I could have a wig made for you if it ever comes to that.
Be strong in your battle and know that you have an awesome man standing by your side and a family who loves you and supports you and wishes we could hug and kiss you everyday! Love you and Miss you!!
