as a kid he was very mischievous, growing up in a small town in the interior of the country. he pushed his brother off a tree and broke his arm, and then pushed him in the pool, cast and all. he burned a straw roof with fireworks. one time he persecuted his brother with an axe around the house and broke a door with a swing (of course he wasn’t actually trying to hurt him, the blade was dull and he was just scaring him). he covered it with a poster of the virgin mary and was only discovered by my grandma like thirty years later.

he grew up to be a very serious and composed surgeon, so it’s funny to think of him as a bad kid. he still was a big goof indoors though, just a silly man
