A Walking Dead Man

A mutant and a medical marvel:  Acute Sinusitis at 11 - 2 emergency surgeries to remove infectious pus from my brain through a hole in my eye. Totaled 2 cars in high school. Lived a very fast life, soaked it all up with experiences you could not possibly imagine with things and people you probably could not conceive. Unknowingly poisoned by a friend with enough liquid acid at a party to go on an infinite trip. I jumped out of a moving car and ran under a bridge to hide from aliens. Got hit by a car in a driveway and another in a parking lot. In 2002 diagnosed with an extremely rare form of cancer - nasopharyngeal carcinoma, stage 3/4 depending on who you ask. Suffered a horrible reaction to intense radiation therapy causing my skin to melt on my neck, face, chest back and shoulders. Lost the function of 2 salivary glands and eventually my thyroid gland as a result of the radiation. So, you know how your throat hurts when you wake up and it is really dry? That is relief to me compared to what feels more like open wounds. The radiation causes mutations all the time, things change as a result of all 5 senses being contaminated. I drink my own blood more than anyone should ever have to. Shingles in 2007 followed by post herpetic neuralgia that caused severe nerve damage in my head neck and right arm - I can feel the electric signals whether my brain sends them or not. Diagnosed with blepharitis in 2008, which makes me extremely photo-phobic. Add that to the light sensitive flesh that faces the sun and you've got something like a vampire purified by pain. Life, death, existence, purpose, nature, time, gods, demons, heavens, hells, everything and nothing are the thoughts going through my mind with every waking breath. Perhaps now you may begin to realize why I am not impressed by your bible or any words that speak of gods and worship.
