Umm
I'm not sure what to say but I haven't had it easy I was alway sick as a child in and out of the doctors with stuff like mono and whooping cough as a teenager not a small child croup and anorexia complications
I had eye surgery at age 1 bladder surgery at 3 tonsils at 6 and 11 left left hip at 18 and 21 hip dysplasia and snapping hip syndrome throughout I felt with ulcers IBS a variety of illness some doctors didn't believe I had RSS and accused my mother of neglect because I was so tiny I always looked like skin and bones the one place I didn't have problems was from my peers but a lot of children born in the 70s had birth defects and genetic abnormalities at least where I went to school but I was alway around the special kids volunteering at all my numerous schools I attended school and track where my escape from life til I was 16 when my left hip snapped during track practice I was a sprinter and hel my school record for 2 yrs. doctors told me I'd never run again and even though I really tried to prove them wrong I haven't run since. My gal bladder and appendix where removed due to swelling not infection . Extensive dental work and wearing dentures have become to painful had 3 set and not 1 fits right . I do hate having such a small mouth but I am who I am and I do love myself
And on the bad side.
my mother thought I was a drain on her marriage and pocket book my daddy was just a loving parent. My biological father denied me so I learned how not to feel much of anything as I got older I didn't care what any one thought of me I guess I realized young I would only ever have my self to trust and rely on. I have been in pain constantly since I was about 13 when diagnosed with degenerative arthritis in my knees.
I'm sorry if anyone thinks I am complaining
