Here is an inspiring story I came across about a prominent football player and coach who is living with vitiligo.
His vitiligo didn't stop him from going to college, playing high level football, or coaching college football.
Dunbar gives a very candid interview about how it was growing up with vitiligo and coping with the disease. Although vitiligo can affect your appearance, it is still just a cosmetic disease. You won't die from it or suffer physically from it. Your skin is still the same except without the color. Compared to other diseases and conditions you could have out there, vitiligo is pretty low on the risk side of things. You can choose to be depressed about it, or you can choose to live with it and go on living as if it wasn't there, and achieve anything you set out to. Which do you think is the better choice?
Dunbar can’t pinpoint the time when he was free and clear, just absolutely done with most of the sensitivities about his vitiligo.
“Guess it never changes for good,’’ Dunbar said. "You mature, and I accept who I am. I know God loves me. I have a beautiful wife, three kids, I know they love me. When people see me, it’s an outward appearance, it’s not who I am."
“I’m just like a leopard or a tiger, I have my spots and I’ll be happy with them.”

Vitiligo Oil, Lotions and Potions, a Real Cure?
VitiligoWeb.com
Let me just put this out there, there are a number of websites I've seen selling all kinds of Vitiligo lotions, potions and creams. They claim to actually cure vitiligo and bring back your skin color.
Has anyone out there tried any such products, and if so what were your results? If these things work, why are doctors still working on ways to treat and cure vitiligo? Are all these products just a scam?
If you have had any experiences, please share them in the comments here!
thank you!
