My first entry to my new diary. I deleted my old one because I never kept up with it when I got sick. Now that I'm working on getting better, I want to start a new diary. And try to keep up with it. If you are wondering what I was sick with, I had cushings syndrome. Very rare in someone my age. I had a tumor on my pituitary gland that was causing my body to produce too much of the cortisol hormone. It was causing me to gain weight, not being able to lose it. It caused red marks all over my body that looks like really bad stretch marks. Headaches. Just a bunch of stuff. I am a junior now, but at the end of my sophomore year I got on home bound because I couldn't make it through a whole day of school without getting a really bad headache or getting really tired, and because people (some I didn't even know) were coming up to me asking if I was pregnant and I was getting harrassed. I spent all summer going back and forth to the Vanderbilt Childrens Hospital in Nashville doing tests and all this other stuff. In September I had surgery. I had the tumor removed. They went through my nose. Now I am working on getting better.
I weighed 177 lbs, now I am working on losing it. I am now 171.4lbs.
With me being home bound, I hardly ever get to see my friends. My teacher comes every Saturday for three hours. I usually have a lot of homework during the week, she tells me that I don't have to finish it all, just do what I can. I try to finish it all though, because I am behind in my classes. I'm wanting to get caught up. I'm reading The Scarlet Letter right now for English 3. At first I didn't like it, but now I am starting to get into it. I understand it now.
I am a huge bookworm.. I absolutely love to read.
