    About Me

    I am 24 years old. I have a condition known as hydrocephalus. I am open to meeting anyone that would like to talk. I was born on January 31st, 1984. I weighed 2lbs 2ozs. They kept measuring my head and it wasn't getting smaller, so they dxed me with hydrocephalus. Hydrocephalus is water on the brain. They inserted a shunt the day I was born. I have only had one surgery and that was to lengthen my tube when I was six. I want to be out going, but I am afraid of what people will think of me. I want to be able to talk to anyone. I work as a cashier, I go to a community college. I am biracial but I like pretty much anybody if you are nice to me. I love going to church.

    Interests

    basketball, soccer
