Capítulo 4: She is broken
On the bus ride home I sat all alone, with my head on the window. I was watching everything go by. For me it was a long ride, because I had the last stop. I tried to distance myself from the older kids on the bus because they were very mean to me all the time. Nothing was like being called pigtails as a 5 year old. I mean I had a name, but they never bothered to learn it. Pigtails was almost an everyday look for me though. Lynn thought it was super cute. "Pigtails or Braids?", she told me every morning while she got her and I ready for school. For some reason the bus was really full on this particular day. We were about five stops in, when I blacked out.
I couldn't really remember much of what happens next. I woke up in the arms of a stranger carrying me off the bus. He was rather a large, had dirty blond scruffy hair, and smelled of Cherry tobacco. Other children were crying and screaming as he was carrying very numb and almost lifeless me. My arms and legs were just dangling as he helded me, and I couldn't hold my head up. He had told me I'll be fine, and to just close my eyes.
The police department had contacted my family. They were informed that something had happened on the bus and I was being transported to the hospital right away. One very long hour and a half later, my very drunk father and cranky mother showed up, with my little brother and extremely concerned sister. My mother was too concerned about how much it was going to cost her, and not about why I was there. Lynn on the other hand, got to the bottom of why I was there. She had asked hundreds of questions, but they all looked at her like a fish out of water. They helded my sister by her shoulders, and told her I had a big seizure. She screamed, "A SEIZURE!?" at the top of her lungs.
Lynn grew pale white. So white in fact she looked like a ghost. They had started to tell her that, it looked like I had epilepsy. The Doctor had told my family they had to do a lot more testing, and that I wasn't allowed to leave the hospital for two months. Lynn was devastated. I could see the pain in her eyes when she came to visit me every day. My parents would come to look at me. Not a single word was spoken to me though. After a few minutes each visit, they would just leave. I was so scared. I had all these wires attached to my head and chest, in a cold dark room where they would do testing, and I was alone.
When it was time for my parents to come get me, The doctor told them I was diagnosed with a rare form of epilepsy that affected the left and the right hemisphere of my brain. The doctor told my mother, that I needed to see the neuropathy specialist two times a month, until the day I turn 16. The look on my mother's face when we got into car, was the look of disgust. I was so scared, and knew I was a trouble now.
