Hello, How are you?

I truly believe that Michael has Vitiligo. I know a lot of rumors surround him and can be confusing to people at times, but if you look VERY carefully at pictures of Michael through the years, over and over...you'll see that the vitiligo is true. People love to pass judgments on Michael only because he lives his life differently from other people...being different is not a crime, nor is it wrong. Those who are different have always been the ones to change the world and/or contribute to it in a major way.

If you look at the pictures through the years, VERY CLOSELY (pay attention), and even use zoom (save the picture on your computer, and you can zoom in if you open it), etc. you'll be able to see blotches on Michael's skin...some are more visible than others...I think it depends on the amount of makeup used, the blending techniques, his condition playing into it (when he was darker vs. lighter...could affect how easy or difficult it was to conceal his vitiligo), treatment, etc. Either way, tons of photographs and even some video exists that clearly shows Michael's vitiligo.

Another thing that convinces me that it's true is that I remember last year when Michael was accused of abandoning his children's nanny while she was sick with Lupus. Later, Raymone Bain released a statement from Michael supposedly, saying that it wasn't the nanny that had Lupus, but it was Michael. What does this have to do with vitiligo? Well, after reading up on it as well as vitiligo, I found that vitiligo is very commonly a side effect or is commonly found in people with autoimmune diseases, and Lupus was one of those named/mentioned. As I did deeper research into Lupus, I found that it, as well as vitiligo, could easily explain many of the ways Michael leads his life that many find eccentric or unexplainable...the umbrella he carries...it's not only for vitiligo, but those with Lupus are also strongly advised to stay out of the sun and wear long sleeves, etc. They commonly get VERY fatigued, muscle/joint pain, rhumatoid arthritis, the list goes on and on of what the patient with the disease suffers.

I just wish that Michael wasn't so quiet and secretive about both of these health problems he has because when it's combined with many other things others believe are eccentric, they simply don't believe him unfortunately...and it's a shame because I feel that his illness is valid, and it's terrible that people trash him because of it. I know his medical history isn't any of our business, but sometimes opening up a bit about some things, the right things, can actually do people a lot of good, which I feel is the case here. I feel that Michael should show pictures of his vitiligo that makes his condition OBVIOUS, not questionable. I feel he should talk more about the Lupus as well (if that one is true for sure), how it has affected his life, etc. I know there's a level of vanity where he most likely doesn't want to show the world these pictures or talk about these issues, and it's probably embarrassing to him, but I feel there's nothing to be embarrassed about, and by exposing it, I feel it exposes the truth, removing one chapter in Michael's life that he's criticized/trashed over. It's purely his choice though, and in the end, what ever makes him happy, comfortable, and whatever he's okay living with (rumors, etc.) is up to him. Just because he has the condition doesn't mean he should have to publicize it...I didn't mean it that way. I'm just thinking of ways, anything, that would help his image in the public's eye, and one way is to start proving every rumor he can to be completely false, or at least not to the extreme or level that has been reported by media.

So yes, I believe the vitiligo is real, lol, and I feel really bad for him because of the criticism it has brought him over the years, such as being ashamed of his race, etc. People take these stories and run with them, and they don't care about the wonderful person they're hurting.
