i'm new to homeschoolin. my health is keepin me out of the skool. i am 19 and a senior, and i shoulda gradated allready. but i havent cuz i missed too many days one year and was held back. not my fault. when i was 12 i had cancer and the chemo weakened my immune system. i get sick easily so one year was just real bad 4 me. but i kept goin. now tho the cancer is back so my parents just pulled me outta skool. i spend most of my time in the hospital anyway so i couldnt go. and ive already missed 2 many days. but this lady comes to the hospital when im well enough and teaches me so that i can graduate. i wanna b outta highschool, but i miss my friends. seein them everyday. it gets sooooooooo lonely. ahhhhh. neway just thought id introduce me.

" Hi, you are an amazing person. Just remember to take it one day at a time and I am sure you will accomplish your goal to get thru hs on your time schedule.

I am lifting you and your situation up in prayer. "

" Hi there. You do sound like an amazing young person. I wish you all the best. I've been very ill too over the years with cystic fibrosis, and it can get very very lonely. I hope you will regain your health and do all the things that you want to do. I home educate my 12 year old daughter and she loves it. There's a place on here called the serenity room, I don't know if you've been there. It's a really nice bunch of people who offer good support and friendship. "

" Some times friends and connects with the love of friends are more important than the grades. I mean, I was there. I had A.L.L. when I was 4. I came out of remission last year, but it was a small scare. I'm clean now. But really, when you've been really sick, it kind of puts life into real perspective, doesn't it?

I think we all get to the point where we say, fuck it. LET ME HAVE MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS, especially my friends. Right? "
