People can be jerks, no question about it. You have to put yourself above all that are realize you are OK just like you are. I have no hair at all, and got teased most of my life because I wear a scarf instead of a wig. I ignor those people. Keep yourself focused on the good that you are. We can't help people who are cruel, but we can indeed ignor them. Stay with the friends you do have, that accept you just as is. Stay positive, that your life can turn out just fine. Shoot for any dream that you want. You can't shoot for the stars until you take off at ground level. No matter what our handicaps or conditions, we can be just fine. Hang with those who have positive outlooks. Scars help make us who we are. Celebrate them. You are still here and doing OK. We all get scarred up during our lives, sometimes they can make you a better person too. I wish you all the best. ginnie
