Before I was even born, I had a stroke while my mom was in labor. She needed an emergency C-section as soon as medical professionals found out. After 4 days of being in the ICU, my dad noticed one of my eyes wouldn't open. Then he told the nurse, who told my doctor, who rushed me into surgery. Because of my surgery, I survived, and I am 24 years old today. I love making jewelry, and other things with beads and wire. If it weren't for having Asperger's I may not have become a jeweler and a future business owner.
