I have a feeling that we have been placed on this earth for a special reason and although I have not fulfilled all my missions, I am trying.
The name of my condition is Cartilage Hair Syndrome Hypoplasia, but you can just call me Billy.
Try being my size and going into a public restroom.
We are people with all the hopes, dreams, passions, and faults of everyone else. Eighty percent of us are born into families with no history of dwarfism.
The general public thinks all little people are in circuses or sideshows. We have doctors, nurses, just about every field covered.
We are your brothers, your daughters, your friends. We just happened to have been wrapped in a smaller package.
I have been truly blessed from the Man upstairs.
