TRAGIC

..... STORY NAR ..... BEFORE BIRTH I ALREADY HAD JAUNDICE. COLIC. AND HERNIA. THREE STRIKES BEFORE BIRTH. BUT ALSO BORN ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF A SMALL DESERT CITY AND A DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY. A TOTAL OF FIVE STRIKES ALL BEFORE BIRTH. YET I CAME POSITIVE AND CREATIVE DESPITE ALL MY STRIKES. YOU WOULD THINK I WOULD BE SERIOUS AND SUSPICIOUS AS A NEW BORN AND AS A YOUNG CHILD.
