Episode 35- Alopecia Advocacy with NAAF's Gary Sherwood
"It's been told to me so many times. Women will say to me 'oh it's harder for me, men have it easy, because they can just go bald and it's not a big deal.' And I have to correct them. I say I've talked to enough men who have this disease, who have a lot of issues, just as much as (women). It's not easy for anyone, the gender doesn't matter. It's really (about) the person."
