Ditto on being most thankful for this site. I do not comment often, but read it always and am very thankful for feeling less like a freak as my hair slips away from me, thanks to hearing from others!

I am also thankful for this website and all of the supportive women who frequent it.

P.S. Just bought a Wigrip and tried it on with an old synthetic wig that I never had the courage to wear. It really works!Thinking about the next step an investing in human hair wig that feels more like me and am actually excited about it! Thanks!

You’re truly beautiful inside and out. Worrying about the way we all feel today because you were there before. I think you almost started crying near the end. It’s so raw the emotion we have and nobody understands it unless they have lived it. I had Thanksgiving a month ago in Canada and this first year with a wig is a bunch of first times. First Thanksgiving, first Christmas, first time out with friends. It’s life-changing but it’s like giving yourself permission to start to be happy again.

Thanks and gratitude to you for caring and sharing. You just keep growing more beautiful inside as the years go by. You are beautiful outside for sure. Glad you came out of the closet and with such courage, videos and all :)That has impacted many of us. Think you Y and Happy Thanksgiving to you and everyone of us sisters on this amazing site!

Y,
Like I emailed you earlier – I am so thankful for you and this site and all the women on it.
This was my first Thanksgiving in wig and I never thought I would utter those words. This year will be the first Christmas too, I deleted all the photos of me the last couple of years – gotta love digital! How sad, I was at my Uncle’s funeral this past week and my sister put together a slide show – all the phots made me smile, they showed some of my loved ones already passed and a lot of family good times. How tragic I deleted mine πŸ™
I suffered for so long, I would say you can’t even imagine but I know that you and us women here know. It is just so deep, I feel like no one can imagine – which again you all know. (That was my version of me chasing my tail πŸ™‚
I really am starting to accept this as my new normal and embracing me – inside and out. I have gained confidence and self esteem back and a whole lot of HL friends, screw the hair loss, just friends πŸ™‚
God Bless you all, thank you all and you already know how I feel about you Y.
You guys gave me my life back (great, now I’m teary)
Suppose I should of typed this before getting into the red πŸ˜‰

Love you all,
Lina

Much thanks to everyone for all your amazing comments, being around such amazing women is such a gift and I feel so privileged to get to communicate with all of you, hear your stories, and share in the smiles and tears. I am where I am today, because of the love and support I got from the women on this site. All of you are forever in my heart.

Next life though, lets all meet up in the “OMG My hair is so crazy thick” network K? πŸ˜‰

Much love and hugs to all!

Happy Sunday!

xoxo
