I had always struggled being the 43 girl in my class and was known as “Shorty” . Though this 44 me deeply, I refused to let my classmates 45 my enthusiasm for school and learning. I 46 lots of after-school activities, though they sometimes presented problems. Because girls with Turner syndrome tend to have 47 coordination (协调), I hardly had any athletic ability. I loved to sing, but it proved 48 to share a microphone with a group of girls seven inches taller. Despite this, I 49 to drive myself to prove that heart and brains could make up for lack of 50 . Once diagnosed, I was given a 51 plan that involved daily growth hormone (激素) injections. I am the type of person who 52 a doctor's appointment for weeks in advance, 53 getting used to injections every day — and even worse, giving them to myself — was a true test of my character. 54 , I got over this difficulty and after five years, I have grown 11 inches. This was a(n) 55 response and I consider it my own little miracle. I am not 56 that I have Turner syndrome. It has built up my character and 57 me into the person I am today. I have learned that you need to try your best to 58 the difficulties in your life. Someone once told me, “No one can make you feel inferior (自卑) without your permission.”This statement has always 59 me and so I will journey on to the next stage of my life with 60 and self-confidence.
