The day I met my parents for the 1st time was the 3rd December, 1977. My mum says that I was a quite and nice child and I always slept the whole night. I was a nice girl, wasn’t I?

My childhood was normal till the age of 3. My legs grew bandy and the doctors tried to stretch them with a special kind of plaster. But they found out that my arteries were to short. Then they tried to elongate the arteries with artificial ones but my legs rejected them. So bit by bit there wasn’t any circulation and my legs mortified. Yes that was it …!!

Now honestly: Who thought that I lost all my courage?? *Please hands up* ;o)

Sorry, but you were on the wrong box. This one, me, wasn’t keen to lament,….noooo, I lived my life, played with other children, even it wasn’t really easy because children can be quite cruel….but I would give them a run for their money. I even went to school here in my town with normal children. Well it doesn’t mean that I’m not normal…..Ok, sometimes a little bit crazy!! But WHO ISN’T??? ;o)

Well, I wasn’t allowed to stay at this school for a long time because the mayor didn’t want me to be here in school anymore. I had to go to a special school. I only had to do 2 years before I left for high school. L But there was no pity. So I spent 5 (!) years in that special school where everything had top priority except learning. I was 15 when I started my first year at high school. Normally I should go to another special school for adults. But the head mistress there said (after a 4 week practical training) that I’m strong enough to do the normal high school. Well the people from the special school weren’t so happy about that. Hum, there is still some justice. Six weeks before the summer holidays began I was in hospital for a surgery and at this time I risked making the break, learned everything I had to know in these six weeks and made the grading test for the high school. What should I say??? I passed it with an excellent result.

2002 I got my high school diploma. Oh, and now I’m working…..at the local authority in my town. Well it is a quite good job. ) Who knows if I couldn’t find another job one day. Let's see!!! After all I already spent 5 years there. *g*

What else to say?? Oh, I have 2 stepbrothers, 3 nephews, 1 niece, 5 cousins, 2 dogs…..ok, I stop now. *gg*

I think it’s enough for now. If you want to know more or if you want to talk with me, so you can use the contact form or leave me some nice words in the guestbook. But please be nice otherwise you get some trouble with me. )

I wish you a lot of fun on my site and see you soon

Yours Caroline
