Hairloss &

Chronic Illness

When I was young, I had a thick beautiful head of hair. I still have beautiful curly hair, but in recent years the amount I have has decreased significantly. We all experience hair loss to some degree--often from brushing or washing our hair.

But over the past several years, I have become concerned at the rate at which my hair is falling out. There are many causes for hair loss with chronic illness. It could be because of your illness itself or the medication you take. I haven’t gotten to the point of having bald spots, but I am on my way there quickly. I am confronted with how much my hair is thinning every time I wash it. The amount that clumps around the drain is alarming, and makes me wonder how I am not bald yet.

Cards for Warriors

Thank you so much for reading Fight Like A Warrior's monthly newsletter! Because of your support, our organization has been able to create an incredible community of chronic illness warriors who prove every single day that #SickFightsBack. If you know a warrior that could use a little extra support & encouragement, remember to request a card for them! Keep fighting everyone!
