Trials and Chalenges

Throughout my life there have been many, many challenges. My life, as a rule has been and always will be very hard, and sometimes it's simply because I'm a homeschooled child. Don't get me wrong, homeschooling is completely awesome and I adore it, but the world can be overwhelmingly prejudice. when I was very very young, my father underwent a series of illnesses, such as stage 3 cancer, diabetes, and a staff infection in his left hip that caused the doctors to do two surgeries one antibiotic hip implant for a certain amount of time, (I don't quite remember how long..) and a second permanent hip. While my dad was in the hospital with his second hip, my sister and I were being shipped to one friends house to another, with no real steady place to stay for about 2 weeks. And finally my grandparents decided to come down to our house and take care of us. At that moment my grandmother became my mother, and grandpa was my dad. They took care of us for about a month, so as you can imagine, we bonded very closely. Soon enough, my dad was home and healing. Although I was young, I remember many details about that ordeal. The scars, both flesh and emotional, were healing, and very slowly and my life became somewhat normal. And then  my Grandpa died of pneumonia That experience shattered my life forever. Losing someone that was closer then a Grandpa, someone who meant so much more.Well, those are the major, character shaping events of my past up to the present time. That's the introduction to my life; I just thought that tidbit would make this blog easier to understand. Welcome to my world. My life as a homeschooled teenager!
