The following story is 100% true, I promise. If you don't like stories involving things of [insert nature of story here because I really don't know] then turn around. You have been fore-warned.
Hi, my names Michael and i'm anything but ordinary. At this very moment (so as I write this) my head is about to explode, i'm tired as fuck but can't sleep and slept all day even at my great grandma's (with my eye's open and responded when talked to but just because I had a seizure)). Now where to begin? Probably at birth would be good. So lets see... I was born at 6 months, I was 1 lbs 4 oz. Now today those babies can almost always live but 16 years ago they didn't, the doctors said I was a miracle baby. There were two other babies like me t the same time and they both died so I was special. The doctors even told my grandma not to let my Mom get to attatched to me because I probably wouldn't make it but I did (obviously). So as I survived we move on, aaaaan freeze! A little directors not is in order I believe, it'll prolly help. So, the doctors also said aome things, figured i'd share before I have to go back in time (guess i'll skip around alot haha). The doc's said that i'd never walk, guess what, I can. I can also run, ride my bike (which they hate for reasons you'll soon find out) and do almost everything wveryone else can). Why did the doc's say those things? Well first of all, being born so early my lungs never fully developed so I have asthma so severe you wouldn't believe, I also have something called hydrosuffalus (spelt wrong but i'm too lazy and tired to fix it so deal with it!). Hydrosuffalus is when you have excess water on your brain, so that being said I have 3 VP shunts. Shunts are little machines connected to tubes that run from my head, through my neck, and chest, and finally down to my stomach to drain it off. The cool thing is people don't know unless I tell them haha. So that's why the doc's are so anal with what I can and can't do, they break easy (one time my brother (I have 3 haha) just tapped my lightly as to say "Hi" and it broke, I was in aganizing pain for 3 days before I went to the doc and then I had to have surgery) but if they get bumped or I fall and hit my head they could get shoved into my brain and in that event I could and most likely would die haha. On top of it all i'm allergic to almost everuthing. You name any food and i'm probably allergic too it haha. But to me that's normal, people try and treat me different and I hate ot, the only difference between me and you is I have to be a little more caucious, a little more vigilant, and I pop more pills a day than an addict with access to as much as he needs. But I suppise i'm done for today. You may not believe me but it's true. Thanks for your time.
