~ Life is like a picture with small and big obstacles, If you stare at one obstacle than the background gets blurred, if you stare at it as a whole, the picture itself is not clear.. Which is why you must GLANCE at one obstacle at a time.. Keeping balance in the picture. ~ ©
Coping with E-thallasemia...
sad I have a disease called E-thallasemia and it really has dug a whole in my life... My family and I haven't been able to go many places do many things, I'm held back from a lot of stuff, and people treat me differently... I'm short and that really makes it worst, it's not my fault. mad
stare Every three weeks I go to the hospital to get blood transfusions, mainly because I'm not allowed to make my own blood since it is defected and can kill me. eek
stare That led to another problem, because of this my iron level goes up and I have to take more medicine, by need every day, it has gotten better... I can now take pills instead, but I still have to get blood transfusions. confused
This problem doesnt' go away... and it's to fatal to try...
Not only do I have those big problems, but it effects other things too... I have respitory problems, side effects from the medicine and a bunch of other tiny little things. neutral
I am happy I have it for some reasons, I love school and I see things differently than our now shallow generation, and I know what I want in life. smile
Again, you cannot get anything from life with out risking it. wink I know I am a lot better than a lot of kids out there and I'm thankful, but coping with it is hard sometimes with accelerated progamed classes and National Junior Honor Society and Mesa, and swimming and Piano, all to get a scholarship, because were aren't exactly rich... But thankfully I can live past 15... smile


Carpe Diem, biggrin
