Oh no, how traumatic! And for it not to come right after all these years! I guess it’s been so long now,mat least you’re used to having no hair. Or are you still struggling with it all?

That must have been devastating. A young girl where I live (friends with her mother) cut off all her long hair and raised donations to create a wig for children with your condition.
