When I was born
It was August the 4th. I was about to enter the the world. I could hear so many loud noises but I could only see black and white objects. I felt like I was being tossed around instead of being carefully astonished by so many different looking people. My head felt heavy, but I stopped noticing it when I was laid on a cold metal table. I didn’t know what it was for but I could hear people saying 5.2, 5.2, 5.2 this number was repeated so many times. -
When I was born, part 2
I was lifted once more feeling the pain in my shoulders shooting up to my neck. 1 week later I had been named Madison Maria Jack. I also had surgery a few weeks later because my mum found out that I was born with a crooked neck. I had a great life being the only child. -
My first birthday
My first birthday was ruined by the rules of having a cousin. When I got my hard noisy toys she got hard noisy toys. It wasn’t fair it was my day and she got some of my stuff. I still got all the attention but I had to share a cake with all the other babies. They were EATING MY CAKE. The sweetness of it was going into their mouth and not mine. Then the bigger people got to drink bubbly fizzy drink and I got none because I was too young (and beautiful). -
The hospital
It was 1 month after I had started school, I hadn’t a clue where I would be by now. My guess wouldn’t of been the hospital. Yes, I had been diagnosed with HSP, It was horrible, swollen hands and legs, at least 4 needles a day, IV drip following me everywhere, red patches all over. I felt pathetic lying in bed all day, I had my own teacher but she was so enthusiastic and annoying. She would only let me play board games so I never learnt anything. -
The hospital, part 2
Two months had gone by, I had the same routine every day in this stupid prison. I wanted to leave but they kept saying I wasn’t well enough. I got so angry, thats when my dad came to see me and tried to lift my spirit as he would say. He went to the gift shop and brought me this fluffy, delightful horse. I had seen it in the window the first day I came in. -

One week later, I was ready to leave but I had a feeling they would keep me longer. Thats when the great news came walking in the door along with a doctor of course. He said I was well enough to leave but I had to take it easy. I was so happy, dancing around. I had pegged that horse as the lucky horse that set me free. -
Taylah was born
I had arrived at my Aunts house, thats where I had plans of staying the night. Well those plans were ruined when the phone rang with unforgettable news. It was my Nana, I heard my grandad in the background asking if they would get there in time. I had no clue what was going on until Nana said that my sister was about to be born. I had told Amanda the news and she started panicking and scattering around. After a while she calmed down and told us to get in the car. -

I didn’t know where we were going but it seemed like we were just going back to my house. I was right too, we arrived at my house. It was like a hurricane had hit, everyone had come down to see my sister. My mum only took an hour to have her then came home straight away, she doesn’t like the hospital. -
Taylah was born, part 3
I sat down on the couch and asked if I could hold her. My mum and grandad were having an argument about what the name will be, I got my name when I was 1 week old and she got hers on the day she was born. They had settled on the name Taylah Paige Jack. Such a beautiful name. -
Cassidy was born
By now we had moved to the 4th house of my life. This is the 2nd best house so far and this is where my second sister was about to be rushed to hospital. My mum was counting the contractions and my nana was packing the bags. It was so noisy, like being in a cage with roaring lions. I wanted to go to the hospital but my nana and my dad had pegs the room seats, then my Aunt and grandad had taken the other supporting seats. I was stuck at home with my great Aunt, My cousin, my other sister taylah. -

The time had gone by so fast, Taylah was in bed having one of those baby naps, Mum had just came up the drive with the new baby? GIRL!!!, yes!, Yes!, Yes!, a GIRL!!!. My Nana crept through the door and gave us a huge fright. I started yelling when my mum came through holding the beautiful baby. -
Cassidy was born, part 3
It was weird Taylah had brown hair with brown eyes but Cassidy and I have blue eyes and blonde hair. Cassidy was so cute, she had hair covering her head already and her eyes were brighter than ever. I didn’t get to hold her but I could see she was a happy, happy baby because she wouldn’t stop smiling. -
My 10th birthday
It was my first double digit birthday, I wasn’t really looking forward to it because all the same people were coming and all the same things happen. It was a lousy, same old same old, sleepover. -
Parkvale school badges
It was 2013, I had arrived at school with tense shoulders hoping to claim one of the schools badges. We were going to have an assembly and announce the leaders of the school. On that same day all the classes had to share their learning chant and their slogan. It put a lot of pressure on year 6s having to wait until it was over then they gave out the badges. Thea and I had wished each other good luck. -

It had started, the badges were being handed out. The P.E monitors, sports pals, then digi leaders. That was me, my name had been called out, I was now a Digi leader. I stood up proud and collected my badge.
