My husband was having an affair with another married woman. That alone broke me. But what happened after shook me even more. My son, who was perfectly fine before, suddenly developed vitiligo. He was never born with it. It started in 2017, about three years into the affair.

Later, I found out that the woman’s husband also has vitiligo. Same rare condition. Same timing. I couldn’t breathe when I connected the dots. It felt too close, too strange, too painful.

Now my son keeps asking me if he is ugly. He looks at his skin and cries. I try to comfort him, but I am breaking inside. I ask myself every day, how did this happen? Why him? Why now?

I don’t know if this is spiritual, emotional, or something else. But I need answers. I need someone to tell me I am not crazy for thinking there is a connection.

If anyone has gone through something like this, I am listening. I am a mother trying to stay strong, but this pain is too heavy to carry alone.
