Welcome to this episode of Alopecia Life, and for sharing your time with me and our guest, Susan McLemore, today. A couple months ago, I was searching for something on Facebook, and I discovered Susan and a really cool thing she organized. I wanted to find out more, and we were both excited to talk about the community that supported her family after they were diagnosed with alopecia. I hear so often, after children are diagnosed, that parents want to do something, anything really...to support their child. They feel helpless and confused, and they want their child to be seen as amazing kids, not as someone who is lacking in any way. In this situation, a bond with a student led to building community around alopecia, and Susan's here to talk about it with us today.

Thank you for listening today. If you're interested in finding out how to organize a ponytail cut-a-thon, Susan's contact information is here in the show notes.
