Natalie – Tennessee
Natalie used to believe she was invisible before she was diagnosed. She was separated from her friends, as a very social teenager, which she found very difficult. She was 18 in a children’s hospital, and made friends with people much younger than her. Natalie feels she has grown from the experience in a positive way.
