He had his lips tattooed so they wouldn't be pink. \"It made me look so much better,\" Dabbs said. He'd get up at 5:30 a.m. to put the makeup on before work. He avoided eating in public and sometimes refused hugging people to avoid smearing it. Dabbs decided against a treatment that would have bleached the pigment out of his skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \"I was just hoping there'd be a cure,\" he said.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In 1997, he got sick and was hospitalized for an unrelated condition, but the toll on his immune system stimulated his vitiligo and almost all of his skin lost pigment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Now his skin is all one pale color, except for a few spots on his chest, and he' s occasionally mistaken for a white man.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Darrel Dabbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1732084637\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781732084636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liberation's Publishing LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/23\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Darrel Dabbs","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44181338456319,"sku":"9781732084636","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_59f35999-9eaa-41f4-be1e-9ad795cf2631.jpg?v=1690259909","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/changing-faces-ii-darrel-dabbs-9781732084636","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
