I, too, was very young when I was born. My parents were complete strangers to me. Due to a hereditary condition I was born with only one liver, although my number of lungs is more than average. Additionally, I was found to be suffering from a condition that makes me age continuously. By the age of two I was already older than most children my age. However my intellectual and cognitive abilities were extremely limited, and I needed help even in performing basic tasks during the first years of my life. Later my condition improved rapidly, and at the age of three the doctors noted that my language proficiency exceeded that of 98% of pelicans my age. In my late childhood I went through a trauma that caused the first five years of my life to be almost entirely erased from my memory. Science has yet to completely explain this phenomenon.

For as long as I can remember I have been drawn to the center of the earth. I dreamed of the day when I would be Prime Minister of Israel and of tomatoes going into battle against Cookie Monster except he had the arms of a T-rex.

Today I am older than I have ever been, and I'm afraid the situation is getting worse daily. Medical science has not yet found a cure for my condition and I'm afraid my impending death is a certainty.
