2010 may be the year that scientists find a cure for vitiligo, or they might not. You don’t have control over their work, but you do have full control over how you live with vitiligo. Will you let it beat you down for another year? Are you going to miss out on social functions because you’re embarrassed to show your skin?
I’m not a big believer in making new years resolutions, but Now is a good time to find a different way of defining what role vitiligo will play in your life. In your heart you know that there is more to you than the white patches on your skin. The people in your life, who love and care about you, probably tell you this often. But no matter what they say, or what you know you have to offer, your head and ego tell you otherwise.
While the scientists do their work, let’s work on what we can…the emotional aspect of vitiligo. We may not be able to dramatically change how we look, but we do have the power to change our self-perception.
I will continue to update the site with pertinent news about vitiligo treatments, but I am going to focus mainly on writing posts that will offer methods and tools you can use to help change your outlook on life.
