| My name is Sarah, i am 23 years old. I am dying. I keep people at a distance because i do not want them to have to deal with what i deal with every day. My kidney you see is only about 60 % effective. i only have one because when i was growing up i had kidney reflux disease. Which is where when you urinate, the urine travels back and it would travel into my kindneys where the the acid would eat away at the kidneys. I didnt recieve surgery till i was 10 years old. They curved my urinary tubes to where it was much more difficult for the acid to travel back up. When i hit 18 years old i had about 80% fuctioning of my kidneys, now with 60% i face difficult life styles. Getting into relationships. Not but about 3 of my closes friends know this about me. I do not want your sympathy, i am telling you this to share with you that you live with every possible fiber in your being. You smile when you want to cry and you laugh when you want to cry. You take a deep breath and be thankful that you are living and breathing and the world will go on with or without you. So while you are still standing and living make every day count. Make someone laugh, make someone smile, make someones day! I have always thought i would never be happy never knowing who i really was, but i know now. Its taken some time to coup with this thing that has been bis-toed upon me. My goals in life i still want to try to get to. "I'll die trying." haha that was a joke please laugh. I am Sarah, 23 year old who loves sign language and cares deeply for people she can not touch. I have had some journey in my life getting here, mistakes happen but you move on. Who am i really, well i am the happiest person i know. I live and live and live. I am only sharing this with you because i have recently been feeling really ill lately another episode which can't be prevented ive realized. I'll be fine, tho, few days on anti-biodics and i should be back on my feet. you see they are accuring more frequently, so i am a little worried. I want you to do something make a goal for yourself. Make someone Smile today, or laugh. if you love them make their day and tell them. I have given you a challenge, lets see if you can do it. |

I understand what you're saying because when my grandmother got diagnosed with a brain tumor and my mother was at the hospital with her, my mother made her laugh by telling her jokes.
