Big, Little Life Erin Campbell

It was a dark and stormy night. The hospital awoke to the sound of a newborn baby screaming. The mother looked on in shock as she knew that her baby wasn't the same as all the others but why couldn't the doctors see that. Slowly the mother sat up in bed she didn't know what to call her child.... I can't think of anything..... I have got it. I'm going to name you Annabel after the wonderful midwife that brought you into the world.



That was the story Annabel's mother told her every night. Annabel still didn't know what was wrong with her; they went to lots of doctors but none of them could explain why Annabel had all the senses of a normal human but for her it seemed as if everything was ten times better than everyone else. They had been to every doctor you could think of but they all said the same thing, "I'm sorry but this looks like a new disease that we have not heard of all we know for sure is that Annabel won't live a long life around 40-45 years. This news devastated Annabel; she wouldn't even be that old when she died. So, Annabel made it her mission to live her life to the fullest even though she didn't have a lot of time.
