I understand your confidence worry, But even in this picture I'm not looking at your neck.
And like a friend of mine would not know it's there unless you brought it up! OH yea my friend is bald, He saw himself as bald But I saw him as a racing friend.
People like you for you!

It has made my confidence worse than what it was already on top of my epilepsy and I don't want to have it for life and in that picture I don't have the tracheostomy tube in

How do you feel with it, To me you look great.
I have said before my uncle had one and I never knew it by sight, because I was to busy listening
I also had a friend that one day in a frantic way told me he was going BALD, you know he was
Again I never knew by sight!
I guess what I'm saying is family,friends,lovers don't have Trech tubes or hair,Epiepsy etc.
there family,friends,lovers first!
