Bold text'''my name is toniann and ive had vitiligo since i was 11. IT STARTED AS A SMALL WHITE SPOT ON THE SIDE OF MY NECK THAT SPREAD VERY QUICKLY.IT ALSO STARTED ON THE EXACT SAME SPOT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF MY NECK.I REMEMBER BEING AT OUR 6TH GRADE PICKNIC IN BRANCH BROOK PARK AND HAVING TO LEAVE EARLY FOR AN APPOINTMENT WITH A SKIN DR. HE PUT SOME GEL ON ONE OF MY KNEES AND BUT ME IN THIS TUBE WHICH WAS LIKE A TANNING BED STANDING UP. IN 5 MINUTES THERE WAS A HUGE BUBBLE FORMING ON MY KNEE.MY MOM NEVER LET ME GO TO THE BEACH OR SIX FLAGS CAUSE OF SUN EXPOSURE. I MISSED OUT ON ALOT OF FUN BUT WAS TORTURED BY KIDS FOR THE REST OF MY SCHOOL DAYS. THEY CALLED ME SPOT AND CLOUDS AND WOULD THROW ROCKS AT ME. I WENT HOME CRYING EVERY DAY. I BECAME A CUTTER AND SUFFERED MAJOR DEPRESSION. I BECAME VERY PROMISCUES WITH BOYS, THATS THE ONLY WAY I THOUGHT I COULD FIT IN. FOR THAT FEW MINUTES I -IN MY MIND WAS NORMAL BUT AS SOON AS THEY WERE DONE THE LAUGHING AND NAME CALLING WOULD START.I AM NOW 36-I MADE IT THROUGH BY THE GRACE OF GOD. AS I GOT OLDER I MEET PEOPLE WHO LOOKED AT ME AS A PERSON. NOW I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER AND I REFUSE TO PICK HER UP FROM SCHOOL BECAUSE I KNOW THE KIDS WILL MAKE FUN OF ME AND THEN SHE WILL FEEL LIKE SHE HAD TO DEFEND ME. BUT AS I GOT OLDER I REALIZED I SHOULD THANK GOD THIS IS ALL I HAVE BECAUSE THE ARE PEOPLE AND KIDS SUFFERING FROM DISEASES AND HAVE NO HAIR AND LIVE MOST OF THEIR LIVES IN HOSPITALS SO THATS WHAT I THINK OF WHEN SOMEONE IS STARING AT ME. I STILL HAVE BAD DAYS BUT I LEARNED HOW TO GET THROUGH IT. MOST OF MY FACE, NECK KNEES, BACK THIGHS, ANKLES AND HANDS ARE SEVERLY SPOTTED. MY ARMS ARE JUST GETTING DOTS. I CANT WAIT FOR THE DAY THAT I AM ALL ONE COLOR LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.'''TONIANN10 (talk) 15:39, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
