Brett

I have a little brother, Brett, who is 6 years younger than me. Last year he started to get periodically sick with a fever every 3 weeks. He would stay sick for 3 or 4 days and then he would get better. My mom took him in to the doctor and she diagnosed him with some disease, I can’t remember its name, in which every 3 weeks his immune system goes haywire for 3 days and then gets better. This is not contagious, and there is no medication that can get rid of it. Apparently he will grow out of this disease when he goes through puberty. This means he will get sick 63 days of every year for a another 6 years.

Glasses

I will be getting glasses very soon as I have a few eye problems. I am near sighted in my right eye, this means I can’t see as well far away, and I have an astigmastism in my left eye, this means the front part of my eye is not curved properly. For those two reasons I am getting glasses. At first I thought it would be easy to get glasses but it is a lot harder than it looks. I have to find glasses that don’t make me look really weird, and it takes a week to get the glasses made. I ordered them on 12/12 and they just arrived 12/16. Hopefully these glasses will correct my vision as needed.
