About Me:

I'm a mother of two and my 5-year old little boy was diagnosed with Vitiligo today (Tuesday, October 4, 2011). I need to find out as much as I can and get advice on what to expect and ways to help him. right now there's only one very noticeable spot about the size of a dollar coin on his back and four very small ones started in other areas of his back and one very small one on his tummy. I am frightened for him as far as his self-esteem and social ostracization if this spreads. For now, at least, he is oblivious to the whole thing.

  • Hi there, good for you trying to gather all the info you can. Support and knowledge can help a lot. Please feel free to ask anything you would like. I had a so called "birth mark" on my leg and didn't get anything else until 16, 17 years old. I have had a great doctor in Cincinnati. Best of luck to you, again don't hesitate to ask anything - the lack of knowledge was the worst part for me
