hey everyone i'm christina
and i'm a burn survior
i dont spell the best because i also have a brain injury. I came on this site to tell people my story.
When i was 8 years old i got electricuted by touching a power line. i have 5 burns. i missed the whole first month of school. and it was a new school for me. from third 3rd grade to senior i didn't have friends prom i didn't dance. people teased me because i'm slower then others and cause i walk differently and cause i'm burned. i tried to kill my self 2 times because i was tired of everything. until one day i wore a pair of shorts for the first time in 11 years in public. i was scared and i was nervous but i thought to myself who cares i'm sexy and i am going to show my burns off. since then i dont care what people say or think. i am going to be me
so now when people stare or say something i turn away
but yeah of course sometimes it still hurts
but god has a reason for everything

I'm sorry about what happened, and I am absolutely amazed and touched that you've grown so much confidence. And i would be surprised if it didn't still hurt sometimes. You are soo strong, I mean, I think I just found my new hero. <3 Christina, you're amazing. If you've been able to keep your head up for so long, so can many, many others.

Hi Christina, you're really brave. I bet it felt good to finally wear shorts. The people who make fun of you and look at you weird haven't been in your shoes, they don't know what it's like or how strong you are. I'm glad you're hear and able to share your story, alot of people would be scared or ashamed. You're perfect just the way you are.
