It was Wednesday the 29th of May 2013 (only days
after my 13th birthday) when my mum first noticed that my right
shoulder was more prominent than my left, none of us really knew what was going
on but we decided that I should get it checked out by a doctor. So the next morning my mum and I went to the
doctors and they had a look. In the end that they said I had to go to the
hospital to have an x-ray because I may have scoliosis. Of what I recall I don’t
remember feeling upset or scarred just happy that I’d miss some more of school.
I had no clue how to even say scoliosis never mind say what it was. On the
Friday I went to have an x-ray done. They let me see the results and you could clearly
see that there was a curve and they diagnosed me with scoliosis. After that I went
and got a new top from new look for my best friend’s birthday party which was
happening that night, we camped in her back garden and I experienced no back
pain what so ever. I did tell my friends about my back and it turned out that
one of them had the same condition as me. We talked more often about our backs
and now we are best friends, it really helps if you know someone who’s going through
the same situation as you (if you would like to talk about it to me I’d be more
than happy to listen J
).
