Hi Courage-

OMG!! I don't think there are books or tapes to prepare you for this one.

So sorry I am laughing so loud here I just can't quit. It seems to me that

travel would be the least of your worries if you had to face " the big search

....LOL My truck or even Donna's car doesn't seem so bad now! lol

hahahehehheehe

Thanks Emma. Its not so much fear of having the car I'm traveling in

searched but of my actual person! I'm prepared to battle a lot of fear and

the reality of having panic attacks all the way to the caregivers gathering

but I am hoping to avoid being taken into a private room for the " big search

! lololololololol - though I wouldn't be laughing if this really happened.

Re: Passport pics

I would say that whatever you take the pic wearing you should plan to wear

that (or NOT

wear that if you decide to go bald) when you come through the border. I

would say go

with the scarf. It might just be me being paranoid but a wig might make an

extra surly

border officer suspicious for no reason and God knows you don't want to

waste time

getting your car searched!!

So thats my thoughts on that ;-)

take my passport

pic - should I wear my wig, no wig (therefore bald) or a scarf (which is

what I wear in the

summer months as a wig is just too hot). My fear is that I will get

stopped trying to cross

the border into Michigan. Should I get a note from my doctor explaining

about the

Alopecia?
