this is the first picture I ever took of myself(seriously) and it was right after i had finished my freshmen year of highschool... I was a rotc nazi

this is a month or so after I had begun treatment for kidney disease.. notice the gradual change in the shape of my face

this is me about 8 months into my hellish chemo and steroid regime, notice that at this point I am nearly unrecognizeable

this is me about 6 weeks before they stopped the chemotherapy... fucking sucked, acne, my sense of taste was haywire, my sense of smell was gone at this point(it hasn't really returned)

this is me coming back off, don't I look happy?

And finally, this is my sexy self after I've been off both the chemo and steyroids since last summer

And to tie this all together, It all comes down to the fact that I was treated like dirt all throughout highschool all because of circumstances beyond my control.
Actually the point is, its nice how my life has turned back around to something worth living after having to go through absolute hell the last few years, I'm living proof that life always turns itself around no matter how bad it gets if you're willing to stick with it.
I also thought it was peculiar that i gained about fifty pounds on CHEMO, odd right?
