It was a cold, chilly Tuesday evening. The weather, cloudy, the news was on about Tiger Woods' upriseing in power, and people would be watching the whole event...or most of them would have. Now they reason I say most is because some were in the hospital and at work. Im going to get to where im getting to right now before i lose any of you.
Now the date was April 22, 1997. It was a tuesday evening around 4 pm when I was born in Akron childrens hospital to Erika Smith (gingerich) and her husband Rick Smith. Erika's sister Rhoda Sommers was also there. I came out to this world as Patrick Allen Smith.
Now after I was born, I was taken straight into the icu because I had major alchahol in me (ill get to why later). I was in icu for about a month. They tried despratly to save me and, after weeks of draining I was released.
Chapter 2: the breakup
I arived home with my mom and dad thinking I was safe. Well... I wasnt. The truth is I never was safe living with my parents. About three weeks after I was born, my parents divorced. Even though I was a baby, it was hard on me hearing them fight.
As I got older, I learned that my mom was a Diabetic. (for those who dont know what that is, read my next blog: What a Diabetic is) As i grew up with mom, I started seeing her go into reactions. When I was 4 or 5, thats when I started being the care given for my mom.
