Hey,I want to tell yall about Sherman Alexie...

He is a writer like me. He has hydrocephalus. So do I!! I thought that was interesting to find out. He's wrote several fiction and some reasl life in them books. He is an award winning author and it was neat to find out he has hydrocephalus!! There's are others out there like me. Billy Grahamn has one now doesn't he??!! Anyways, I just thought Sherman Alexie was fascinating!!H.Bun told me about him. He read some of his work. Mb I'll go read some of his works. The article I read also said something about paintings to. I mean this condition is not some hold back on your life if you get the right treatment like I was lucky enough to receive as a baby!! How can surgeons work on a little baby??!! Although, they sure did bc I'm livivg proof!! And that car accident I've told yall about(closed head injury and broken left femur)if I hadn't had the shunt to pump off the fluid and blood from my brain I'd be DEAD today!! The cerebrial shunt is what saved my life when I was 18 riding with my silly friend at the time. I mean,I guess she wasn't paying attention during the wreck. See, I don't remember it!! I was the passenger(See, I don't drive). Anyone else out there scared too to??!!) And I sure have been scared ever since!! See, i didn't drive when I turned 16. I was scared of it then!! Also truly nowadays it helps not driving. I don't have to worry about the gas. I got legs to walk. Anyways, thank God I had the shunt put in as a baby(my cerebrial fluid wasn't flowing normally so I had to have the surgery at 3 mths old or so to keep me alive). See when I was a baby I wasn't holding my head up normally and mama knew something was wrong. ((Had to go to Nasville, TN--Vanderbilt and Baptist bc I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for them drs!!THANK YOU!!)) Anyways, I THANK YOU FOR READING ON THIS SATURDAY MORNING!! Sweetpea
