We have a guy here at work with Vitiligo. We were outside smoking and I was asking him about it. He was telling me how there isnt much that can be done for it.
So I'm sitting here thinking what it would be like if the pigment of your skin started to just go away. That would be pretty crazy. I cannot imagine what it must be like to live with that. The way people can be so mean sometimes, I dont know that I could deal with that. I guess you either deal with it or you dont though.
So that's what's on my mind right this second. If anyone has anything to add, feel free.
*ok, well, I also have this: http://www.reuters.com/article/healthNews/idUSTRE49L6CB20081022 on my mind, but that's a whole other issue. And it's only on my mind because I got the vaccine today at the doctor. And Vitiligo is more interesting than me getting vaccinated for pnuemonia.*
