I am the mother of a 2 year old little girl who has not had a stitch of hair, eyebrows or eyelashes since she was 9 months old. I wish that those who wrote the hurtful comments above could be sitting in the room when I am brushing my oldest daughters hair and my beautiful little 2 year old girl tilts her head, rubs her bare little scalp and says "Alopecia Mama, Alopecia". It makes me want to cry every time.

I understand the frustration of not wanting to pay out anymore in taxes, believe me, my family is feeling the crunch like every one else. Someday, if my daughter chooses to wear a wig... we do ok, and if we have to go without something for a little bit to do it, then so be it. We will take care of it ourselves. But not everyone has this option. I think the bill is a wonderful thing for those who cannot financially provide a wig for their child. Those who are against this bill, don't understand the extent of emotional scarring that this autoimmune disease can carry.
