Photos are like memories to me. I don't remember much from when I was younger than 10 years old, but I remember seeing the photos. Over the years they've become the next best thing to actually remembering the events. I've also included the photos from my childhood because they're from before my diagnosis. I feel ending up in the hospital marked the end of my life as I'd known it. Who I was, what my expectations were for myself and what others expected of me completely changed. At this time the only recent picture of me on here is the photo on this page. I don't have more recent photos because I value being anonymous on the web so I can feel free to express myself without having to worry about how people will treat me afterwards. I figure if they don't like how I come across on the internet, they can always ignore me. I've had some bad experiences with getting to know people on the web and then meeting them in person. It was a fiasco. Consequently I try to keep some seperation between my offline and online lives.
