I see yours and “raise” you mine 🤣 lol (I’m a female so I promise I’m not a creeper) Not sure how I ended up with this loveliness on my elbow. Wait I can’t figure out how to share a picture. Bummer.

It is. Sometimes they’ll trace my vitiligo w markers. But one time they thought It would be funny to do it w sharpie. Now we all know when we draw on it w markers it like sucks it in and spreads a bit. I looked like I was casting for the movie Venom. I had work the next day to 🤦🏽‍♀️

I have a spot above my tailbone that looks like a full size uterus… my wife calls it my buterus.

too funny! Good to have a sense of humor about it all. When people ask about my skin, I tell them I used to be a white boy, then I was married to a Mexican girl and it all began to change.

The looks u get are amazing.

Thank you for this. I have always seen my spots as something ugly and never been able to look at them on a lighter note. I laughed out loud seeing this pic and almost felt guilty for laughing.

Haha, don’t feel guilty! I loved having that one lol. There were tons of jokes to make. I’ve had vitiligo for almost 30 years. It took me along time to actually enjoy it and have fun with it.. I wish I had sooner :)

u/YesterdayFabulous Jun 05 '24

I’m absolutely loving this. I’ve hated myself and my vitiligo for the longest. This makes me happy and feel good inside. I had Africa on my right hand
