Hi Samantha

I hope you're feeling better. I really do feel for you and your mum it's an awful thing to cope with. My son also has brittle nails, to the point where they looked like they were going to come off. The last few weeks though they are improving and growing back 'normal'. There is no sign of his hair growing back though. He has had little bits but they've fallen out again. It's about 18 mths now since he 1st showed signs of hair loss. How long have you been like this?
