To anyone replying to this: keep in mind that this is a page for children too, so nothing too traumatising or too graphic, nothing that you would not tell your younger siblings or cousins.

when I was like 7-8, my mom gave me this little teddy bear to take with me into surgery, and right when the anesthesia started kicking in, I literally threw the teddy bear across the room for some reason. honestly I don't even know why 💀

so my little sister had a hernia and she went into town with my mom (she was 4-ish?) to get a surgery to fix it. she is very talkative and after they gave her the medicine to make her fall asleep and were wheeling her into the surgery area she started talking about her porcupine cousins who she'd been to see earlier. She was like, "And I went to se my cousin Lucy, who is a porcupine, and my other porcupine cousins..." The doctors figured the medicine must be working and that she was starting to get loopy. ACTUALLY, just the night before, her and my mom went to my aunt and uncle's for dinner. My aunt put up a feeder for the birds one year and it instead attracted porcupines, so she started naming them and set up a feeder just for them. they are wild porcupines still, so she never knows when they are going to come by. They showed up while my mom and sister were there, and so my sister went out with my aunt to feed them. Her and my other sister call the porcupines their cousins, so when the doctors thought she was imagining things, what she said was totally true. |

Once I went to a dog park with a dog swimming pool and I fell into it, it was cold, but luckily (or unluckily) my mom had some pregnancy clothes to give away with her and I had to wear them. I broke my front teeth on a trampoline when I was seven, at the beginning of the pandemic we found out the root also broke and it got infected and super swollen (even my eye was swollen) and hurt so bad it has gotten infected a couple times and it really hurts and if it gets infected again the dentist will have to open my gum 😭.

the other day at lunch i was sitting with my friends and one of my friends told me to throw our other friends lunch bag at her head. and i did and it was super light and hit her pretty hard. long story short she was mad but got over it and started laughing. well when she got home she realized she had a container with some leftover stew that busted when it hit her head. 😂

at volleyball practice our setter set me up and i hit it RIGHT to the same friend as my first story and it hit her in the chest (ig she didn’t have enough time to react) and she flew back onto the ground. and the funny part was a few plays before we were joking around and one of our other friends said “i hope tay or maddy hits you in your big forehead” and i almost did 😂

i used to have severe bloody noses 3 times a day/night, and eventually i got my nose cauterized. as i was being put under, the two nurses with me were telling me jokes and one said to me “why couldn’t the skeleton cross the road” i was like I KNOW THIS I KNOW THIS and i said “because it didnt have…” and boom im out. when i woke up i told my dad i was upset because i didnt get to finish and he looked around for the dang nurses for a long time and eventually he came back and said he told them but im convinced he didnt find them and said that to make me happy lol

I wanna talk about a teacher and it was my sophomore year in high school and this teacher I had at the end of the day knew I was gonna be out for a while because I was gonna have knee surgery to fix my acl tendon tear and when I came back to school she had someone help me but this one day she said “sit down” to the boy who was gonna help me and she knew I couldn’t or wasn’t supposed to carry my backpack on my back so I wouldn’t fall and injure myself again but she told him to sit down and not to help me so when I made it to the office where my mom was I told her what happed and I didn’t know this but the next day my mom came up to the school and chewed my teacher out she told her do you have a have a degree in medical or something and she told her to make sure somebody helps me so I don’t hurt myself and I was actually in a classroom right above where they were and I could hear my mom chewing this teacher out she was so mad she never told me she was gonna back up to the school and do this but ever since that day she was all nice and kind to me I know she was faking it but I didn’t care as long as she want being rude or mean to me I was happy 😃 and I all ready didn’t like her because she treated me differently than everybody else
