I Fight Fires Like A Girl Firefighter Shirt

And I am so very happy now that we’re ok. I never want my I Fight Fires Like A Girl Firefighter Shirt kids to know how desperate Mom was ever again. My husband could keep a poker face on his anxiety during those hard years, but I never could. I wear my emotions on my sleeve. Honestly anything Steinbeck. My favorite author by far. His talent of telling underdog stories where good and bad, right and wrong isn’t clear is just my cuppa tea. Just came here to say that I also have phenylketonuria, the same disability that Charlie Gordon has in the book. Which is one of the many reasons why it is one of my favorite reads. It is incredible how far medicine has come in just a few decades. When the book was written in the ’60s, Charlie’s prognosis was pretty typical for the time.

Over the years, treatments, medication, and understanding of the I Fight Fires Like A Girl Firefighter Shirt condition have allowed me. And many others, to lead a completely normal life (albeit with some tweaks). I was lucky to be born at a pretty good time (1995) which was precisely when treatment of phenylketonuria was perfected. As a result, my brain didn’t suffer any developmental damage like Charlie’s did in the book, to a pretty incredible extent. I just finished a master’s degree and am applying to law school. It’s pretty wild to think that even if I were born ~10 years earlier. I would very likely not be in the same place I’m in today. What was considered science fiction just 60 years ago is now a reality for the few thousand people born with phenylketonuria every year!
