MY STORY
Due to Alopecia Universalis, Laura Hudson has been completely bald since she was nine years old. Growing up, Laura was constantly teased and tormented at school, had few friends and was told that she would never amount to very much.
The acceptance of her husband and children challenged Laura to change her life and she decided to start by changing the way she thought about herself. She wanted to help children and others understand why teasing hurts and how much damage it can do. She wanted to spare others from being made to feel worthless because of someone else's thoughtless comments.
Laura says, "I would have given anything to have someone tell me they understood what I was going through, that it was OK to be different, that if I just hung in there and was strong I would be victorious. It would have made all the difference in the world. I could have been spared so many doubts, questions and fears. Since I didn't have that person, I want to be that person." |
