discouraged

I am almost 3 months in: 3 blood clots later and the meds still aren't working. They assure me that this is normal but they don't hide the truth too well in their voices. I know that the reality is that this puts me at risk. I'm not fearful, just discouraged.

5 kittens and a mama cat have moved into our backyard. I'm pretty positive that if you could catch the orange and white kitten I would magically heal. Please do this asap.

because I said I would

I have been told I'm a phony and that it doesn't count. Maybe they were right...

In a week I will experience my 24th year of existence. In a week my brother will experience his 24th year of existence.

Yes, we are twins.

I have a circle of friends who are twins as well, creepy, I know. However the difference between them and my brother and I is that they are all identical twins and we are fraternal. Because my brother and I are not a mirror image of one another (thank god) -- it doesn't count. Because our friends will never mistake one of us for the other -- it makes us frauds. You can tell us apart in baby photos, we have different facial features and body types, and sadly we can't read each other's minds.

So, truth be told, I too have always wondered what it would be like to be a twin. But the real kind, not a phony like me.
