I wish I'd known that there were other kids just like me in, in communities out there, going through what I'm going through, I wish they were there. I wish that they brought these kids to me or showed them because the only place I saw them was at the hospital. And, when I went home, I saw none of them, and, I felt alone and I just felt that I'm the only one and, I really wish I that saw more kids like me.
