Hello reader, My name is Zachary and I am 19 years old. Thanks for taking your important time to read my little story. i'm serious, Thank you.
So, i was born with a rare condition called Moebius Syndrome which is when my face gets paralyzed and i cannot change facial expression at all. I can't move my eyes side to side, can't eat with my mouth, can't talk correctly, don't have any feet, and can't really breathe like normal people do. I eat through a tube called a G-Tube where i basically have a feeding tube inserted into my stomach and i have a breathing tube called a Trache which helps me breathe better, the trache goes into a hole the doctors make in my throat and they put the trache in when i was a baby and i always had it since. I still have it on to this day. Also i was given prosthetics to walk and run.
Don't worry i'm fine, not gonna die or anything like that. I don't want anyone feeling sorry for me because i want them to know that i was born like this and there's just nothing i can do about it. It's just how i am. I don't have a lot of friends because most people judge others by how they look/act. I am a human being too, i have emotions and thoughts just like everyone else. I'm just another teenager that might look different but i am pretty sure i am just like any other teenager. I like to play games, watch star wars movies, action movies, hate doing school work, and like to hang out with my family. I have a awesome family that loves me and just wants me to succeed in life.
The main reason i'm writing this is because well.... i don't really wanna be forgotten. So don't forget me reader, share this story to as much people as you can. you won't regret it. If this also inspires other people like me who have Moebius then thats a bonus for me. I get angry really easily but i try my best to hold back my anger because if i just let my anger out then i'll get in a lot of trouble and i don't want that. That's why being happy and relaxed is better than being angry and wanting to lash out at the people your mad at. I know you can't always have happy days every day, there is such thing as a bad day. I should know!!! i hate bad days!!!!
I like to write as you can tell, writing's like my thing. if i can't speak correctly then i always pick up the nearest pen/pencil and write my emotions down. Writing calms me down whenever i get pissed off or just wanna write just for fun. I am a fun person to be with if you can deal with me looking like i have a permanent mask on everyday 24/7. I like music like Frank Sinatra and rock music like POWER WOLF. I hate how i look right now because i'm having people stare at me wherever i go sometimes, but i try to ignore them, but all the judgement and staring gets to me sometimes. NEVER EVER EVER judge a book by it's cover, i'm the book and people are always judging my outside front cover and i hate that.
My family loves me and i appreciate that a lot, like a LOT. A mother, that's one tough strict cookie, my dad is understanding and kind as long as you don't make him angry, then he'll just give me lectures. My mom's the same way too. But i still love them all the same. I'm very lucky to have a family that's caring and loving.
Well, i guess that's the end of the story for now. I don't know what else to write. I love you readers that actually take the time to read my story. I'm not gay but giving love to anyone is better than not giving love at all. I LOVE YOU THE READER AND THE WHOLE DARN WORLD!!!!
Also, for those of you who are huge critics and say that this is not a story then i say to you: Deal with it, A story is a story no matter how it looks and it's my story so i can say whatever i want and how i make it look.
Make sure to tell your kids you love them, and your parents, you are a good person just like me. i know you are and if you don't believe that yourself then your lying to yourself. Whether your a boy or girl. i don't judge and hopefully you won't judge me too.
The end. Goodbye reader!!!
P.S, hey this is made by a disabled teenager so what? you didn't expect this coming out of a teenager like me huh? I just blew your minds. See? i can be funny, just a funny, relaxed, crazy good person. Alright reader stay safe. I'm counting on you to share my story to like THE WORLD. Or maybe i'll do that somehow, i'm hecka poor. Not homeless though so calm down.

10/26/2019Zach,
You have challenges that would leave most of us unable to laugh at anything...let alone ourselves. Like the other folks that commented - I had to laugh at how thoroughly you caught those teenage years, and parents, and family. Only people with truly rare and formidable challenges can truly relate or have real empathy for what you have gone through. That being said, your talk about family, bad days, and teenage school days is Universal.
I hope you have many good days.
Smiles, Kevin

I'm honored for my stories to be enjoyed by you and others who are also writers. I'll make more stories if you want since you liked this story.

10/24/2019Wow Zachary, you've got a lot to deal with in your life, but it seems like you're dealing with it all pretty well. I think it is good to share your story with others, because hopefully they will learn for themselves that even though life brings you difficult challenges you can handle it. And also, hopefully they will see that they shouldn't judge others by the outside or just what's on the surface. Thanks for sharing your real life story with us, Zach.
