Dear Ashley,<\/span><\/p>\n
How interesting! \u00a0I would love to understand how I work, too! \u00a0So when your’e finished writing, please share.<\/span><\/p>\n
1.\u00a0I am ambidextrous, meaning I am both right and left handed, although I tend to favor my right hand to write. It’s simply more convenient.<\/span><\/p>\n
2. I do wear glasses, I am nearsighted, that is, I need to remove my glasses to read and type.<\/span><\/p>\n
3. When did I start menstruation? Not sure. Around 11 years old.<\/span><\/p>\n
4. Not sure but I did have a brain aneurism\u00a0at five years old, and a tumor removed from my forehead at age two.<\/span><\/p>\n
5. I knew something was different about me. I lost time that I couldn’t explain, and yes I had doubts, because seriously, who would want to admit they are many people in one?<\/span><\/p>\n
6. I was nearly born in the backseat of my father’s car. \u00a0I was delivered within five minutes of entering the emergency room of a local hospital. \u00a0My mother was naive and didn’t realize that her water broke many hours earlier. \u00a0She believed she wet the bed in her sleep.<\/span><\/p>\n
7. I am the eldest child. <\/span><\/p>\n
8. My father was 26 and my mother 21 at the time of my birth.<\/span><\/p>\n
9. I love to write, love to communicate with people, and I listen well.<\/span><\/p>\n
10. Yes, I am creative, always have been, always will be.<\/span><\/p>\n
Thank you for your thought provoking questions.<\/span><\/p>\n
