This morning I've watched another one of those inspiring tales. It was about a guy called Johnny Kennedy, a sufferer of a rare skin condition called EB. Now I say he was a sufferer, it looked incredibly painful, and was obviously not an idea way of living, but he didn't really suffer. He kept his chin up mostly, had a fantastic sense of humour and an incredible knack of telling it as it is. It seems to me that through his illness he was more alive than the vast majority of people.
I'm posting the documentary on here, because it's a truly fascinating story. Mum watched an blubbed all the way through. I simply watched and smiled. Even the sad bits, to watch the sad bits, and know that somone has gone through something like that forever and still manages to live life as full as they can gave me that very warm feeling.
So...... The boy whose skin fell off
Now then, if you don't see his story as remarkable, and this doesn't give you a wonderful feeling.....I don't know what will. And by a wonderful feeling I mean a feeling that makes you apprecaite what you have and what's happening in your life. If someone liek Johnny can keep going against all the odds, then you can too. Be strong, stay positive, and don't let things get you down.
