My name is Shy and I would like to tell the world about myself. I suffer from a very rare disease. I have been trying to come up with a way to describe it and I have come up with this. Imagine having a Siamese twin- if you had a Siamese twin you would not be able to make any decisions without imagining how it would affect your sibling. It is a little like that with me, only rather than having two whole bodies that are connected, there is only one body with many peoples minds. In fact, the body that I am in looks nothing like I should look. On the inside I am teenager with long black strait hair and very pale skin and blue eyes who is too thin and a little too short. I am 13 but I look about 11 because I don’t have breasts yet like I should. On the outside I am a grown up with very short brown wavy hair and dark skin and dark eyes and breasts. Whenever I look in the mirror I am very sad. I think that normal people take having a reflection for granted. Most people get to say what they want to be when they grow up, but I don’t. I don’t get to have a job at all. If I could be anything I wanted I would be a housewife. I want to grow up and have a baby because I love children so much. I don’t think that Rachael wants children. I take care of my brother, Trae. Trae is also my best friend. He is eight years old. I don’t think that Trae is old enough to understand that he will never get to be like everyone else.
