(If you wanna do research at the library) :library: 




So, I did some more research on Neurofibromatosis. Type 1 (which is the one I have), Type 2 (Or NF 2, and type 3 which is called Swchannomatosis. Turns out that type 1 (Or NF 1 have a higher risk of developing cancer. Even though about 10% (about that or less) develop cancer. But That bummed me out. Type 3 (That's what I'm gonna call it) causes chronic pain. Surgery may be required for that. But it doesn't cause blindness or deafness like type 2. Type 2 is pretty bad. It's more severe than type 1. But one reason why I'm short, is because of genetics. BUT there's another reason. NF1 causes short stature. (It also can cause a larger than average head. And all three have symptoms. 
If you'd like more information or would like to learn about Neurofibromatosis, you may ask me, or look up information online. Or in books. But make sure they are true. One site is the children's tumor foundation. There are a ton of websites that will be good to look up.
(It's actually very interesting to learn about) (I've done research on it before now. I'm very knowledgeable about my disabilities. All of them)

Being informed and staying strong are probably two of the greatest attributes one can have and it seems you have them both.  Best wishes and keep on movin' ;)
