12 years ago at my prom my classmates were in love and came together, the girl broke her back earlier that year, and the boy brought a mattress and pillows and blankets and sat by her side in the cabinet near the event every time she felt like couldn't stand anymore. We were amazed
There was a boy at my school who had this and he said all he wanted to do was finish high school and he did it. He made it a week after he graduated then he sadly passed away. He was a great guy. He had it so bad that he was like skin and bones because he literally couldn’t do anything but he tried his best. He was even in percussion for band. They made him a special wheel barrel to carry the drum so he didn’t have to. His mom even asked him why he still goes to school when he’s not expected to live that long and he said mom I have friends and that’s all I can live for I believe after he met his goal he was able to leave in peace. (His expected life rate was to like 4 but he lived to 19) the whole school was proud of him
My ex boyfriend crashed my prom we broke up for a week the week tickets were on sale so he didn't get to go then he showed up before prom was over and dragged me out of there calling me a whore(I was with my friends who were girls and in a very conservative dress)
I have EB and I can tell you myself it sucks. You have to be cautious of everything since the slightest bump can tear off your skin. And you’re in constant pain too. As a child it’s unbearable but over the years as you get older you become less aware of it since you’ve gotten use to all the pain. There are some bad days but I always look on the bright side everyday and am thankful I’m still alive
“School dances are evil events that make 99% of the students miserable so that the 1% can have a magical night” now that I think about it..he’s on point! prom was dope btw
Seriously prom is the best time of someone’s life coming from a 58 year old woman who was giving her words of wisdom it’s something you won’t want to mess
My prom was kind of boring, it was suppose to be mascrade theme but there was just a couple of tables a dance area taped off with lights and a archway and a few chairs off on the side and a dj. The music kept cuting off, the only snacks where popcorn, with a few toppings and water. the only fun part was hanging out with my cusions before prom sence we all went together then after prom we left for McDonald's.
I’ve grown up really really sick all my life and it perpetually gets worse but I will forever be grateful for my friends inviting me to their senior prom even though I didn’t go to their school. All three of them took me as their date and I can’t say how happy that made me! Everybody should get to go to prom!
Everyone who wants to. Personally, prom sounds like a nightmare to me, because I have ADHD and likely ASD (Ressources in my county are backed up and I was told "Call us back in summer and maybe we can give you an appointment for an assessment" so that's what I'm waiting for) and get overstimulated very quickly, so any big groups of people, especially in a closed room like a gym hall, put me into a fight-or-flight mindset. I skipped my college graduation party because of this and generally avoid any large gatherings, particularly indoors. I hope for everybody who *wants* to go to prom that they get the chance to do so, but personally would rather watch some movies with my close friends instead.
Amazing friends you have. And you're right about everyone should get to go to prom.. At the time I lost all of my friends. I couldn't graduate highschool, and I did not get to go to prom, ever..
they didnt have any and the guy who made the shoe own the hospital and he supposed to be like a mark Zuckerburg type guy a tech titan billionaire and he made the hospital to treat very special cases he has Altier motive for doing it but watch the seires it was only 13 episodes long and not to bad pure genius
Feel that was that was their personal choice and the school allowed it as random chaperones?. Seem too invested. As own personal feelings get in the way. (Like a lot of these medical dramas.) Regardless of how great it was for her. Could see my medical team doing that for me but i’ve known them for years and they saved my life. But they also wouldn’t be at said event.
Right, like imagine you're dealing with something serious like an epidermal medical condition and you're boo-hooing about missing something as superficial as a high school dance and a boy not liking you.
@@thatvalensteingirl The problem isn't just going to the dance, it's the fact that she isn't able to do anything. She misses human contact. She has not been able to live her life.
@@thatvalensteingirlbecause that’s what teenage girls care about. They’re just kids and those things are important to them, it must be horrible to see your peers do things uiu want to do but can’t because you have this painful illness

prom scenes make me choke up cause my senior prom was supposed to take place in 2020 and i had plans to go but covid shut everything down. now prom scenes in tv and movies make me thing of what could have been. doctors with this kind of empathy have my upmost respect.
I am lucky I graduated in the 2010’s from high school and my class was the first senior class in 2014 to have prom at a new venue that was established in my town!
Actually no, the premise of this show was that the guy is a billionaire and he built this hospital to essentially cut bureaucracy out of medicine. So they do cutting edge stuff at no cost to the patients
well it would not be free healthcare in countries that have universal healthcare taxes are way more expensive or so people that have bean their have told me. so if that is the case the person should have to pay something out of poket just mabe a few hundred dollars something affordable. before the usa could decide on universal healthcare we must be told the truth of were the funding comes from and how it is collected how it is payed. will taxes go up that sort of thing.
@@supersaiyaman11589 Ahh okay, I understand. It's not the taxes, but the efficiency of the system per spent GDP sucks compared to other countries. Ironic cause privatization supposed to drive down the cost at some point by being more efficient. Maybe throwing more money won't solve the problem. Even now, government should know where the money goes and why it's so expensive.
this is a real condition but also eb is diagnosed at birth or atleast a few days after birth, as of now EB has no cure and only has very light treatment options, tragically children with this dont live long as they often die from infections and dehydration, some children are so sensitive that there own clothes, even changing there diapers will cause there skin to rip and tear off
My fiance's cousin's son has EB. He's also not able to eat normally because it causes blisters in the mouth so he had a G-tube. Even bathing him causes blisters.
That's somewhat true but there is a wide spectrum of people with EB and degrees to the disease. I had several patients That left you the '30s or '40s and one patient who lived into their 50s had a child, got married, and had no problems eating cause hers didn't affect the inside of her mouth. Still needed a peg tube and their abdomen though because it's difficult to keep up with the protein and nutritional requirements needed to try to heal the skin with so many wounds. And I know others who didn't last past childhood because it was so severe. Oftentimes infection is what ends up causing the deaths. It's a spectrum.
Perhaps they will. Hand held long distance communicators were a thing in scifi and now I'm sending you this from my cellphone. Sometimes all it takes is a fictional idea to later spark a real leap forward in innovation.
I mean. Hyperbaric oxygen tanks have been around for decades. Not exactly new. The e-skin isn't really being used except for really extreme, experimental cases. It's not used like in the video. A lot of the tech used in the video has been around for awhile, they just aren't used in the way the video portrayed.
Ikr? Surely these are the only doctors who work in that hospital. Also, they shouldn’t get personal time, bc that’s time they could be spending to heal other patients
I find it hilarious that her face is perfectly fine. EB affects every inch of skin and there is NO way she's survived this long and not had a single bit of pressure or contact with her face up until now. By this age, she should be covered head to toe in bandages and basically be a walking mummy if she can move at all without causing sores. This show is probably one of the worst medical dramas I've seen, they don't even try to be realistic lmao.
You also typically are born already with nasty skin tearing. By senior year of high school if she even had fingers and toes, they would almost completely be scarred and stuck together.
I don’t think that’s the case for everyone. I know a girl that has it and her face does tend to get red and splotchy at times, but other than that her face is perfectly fine. She’s able to wear a full face of makeup as well.
Ya no I have diagnosed EB and its hasn't effected me all that much plus over the years it has lessened. It comes in many different forms and can also be very localized, affecting specific spots on the body.
i dont think they can promise any treatment will work. isnt that how medicine works? most treatments arent fool proof and theres only at most a 99% chance they'll work?
What I don’t get is why she couldn’t just go in bandages in a wheelchair. A lot of disabled people have to do that all the time. She still could have gone just she would have gad to be more careful. A lot of butterfly children(so called because their skin is as delicate as a butterfly’s wing) go to school and though they are still dealing with a major illness they can still do things.
As a kid with a 2pg long list with disabilities and chronic illnesses, sometimes you just want to be like everyone else, even if just for an hour. Being in constant pain is exhausting.
This much fuss over going to prom. I get it that its a one time thing, but life is full of one time things, and we should be encouraging her to focus on her health over trivial things.
It’s the small trivial things that makes life worth living. We get many birthdays yet there are a few we make a big deal about. Health should always be the first priority but not doing things like your senior prom hurt a lot at the time.
@@michaelablair4689 But are they worth ones own health tho? Take it from me who had SEVERE asthma as a kid to the point that I was hospitalized and every time I took a breath I looked like a fish out of water, that health is MORE important then ANYTHING, that the small trivial things that happen in ones own life are a dime a dozen, you can have millions of these small things but you can only have one life
And here I was recovering from major surgery during my prom. Didn't matter since I never saw the big deal about prom and could care less about going 🤷♀️
I am very pleased to have watched this scene Patient cannot touch anything with her skin. Pure Genius. It would be great to have doctors like that, who work well together to find the best cure for a young patient who is eager to go to the prom. The cures can be found and technology can be developed. This scene taught me that it is better to think beyond your limitations.
Staying home, eating pizza, and watching Star Wars was basically how I spent my prom. All the girls at school didn’t like me and all the boys didn’t know I existed. Jokes on them. I spent ten bucks for pizza. They spent hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on dresses and limos. Prom’s a scam, but pizza has never let me down.
Also could be CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome), a cruel pain condition I had in my foot for 10 years. If air, water, insect or hair touched it; the skin blistered far worse than it already did & bled horribly. Doctors couldn’t wrap it in dressings, as it just made it worse & anything that touched me made me scream in agony; nurses who had put their hands on my foot (against my wishes & ignoring my protesting family), they left hand/finger-marks on my skin, which became new bleeding sores that left me sobbing. In the end, a team of engineers were paid to build a protective attachment to my wheelchair that could encircle my traumatised limb & protect it from everything, but without actually touching it (it looked like an American mailbox). I used it right up to the point where I got a serious infection that finally allowed me to get the amputation surgery I’d been begging for. Amazingly, my CRPS went into remission & I’m finally free of wishing myself dead for all those years. Even the phantom pain is no worse than a mild bowel cramp in comparison. Sad that it took so long to treat properly, though. I know this sounds hard to believe, but I have an Instagram account with a photo of the protective box/wheelchair attachment, if you’d like proof. It’s a rare condition & something I wouldn’t wish on anyone, not even those who have wronged me. 🥺🏥🤷♀️
I have CRPS as well. I had a fall back in 2009. It took nearly 2 years before I was diagnosed with it in my left arm. During that time I was also diagnosed with autism and from there I have been able to live with the excruciating pain on limited pain relief (doesn't do much)
Meanwhile my doctor blames everything on ibs. “Doctor I’m suddenly blind and all my limbs fell off” “Yes, unfortunately that is most likely due to the ibs 🤷🏻♀️”
Fortunately the premise of the show is that Bunker Hill is an entirely free high-tech clinic for the purposes of researching and developing cutting-edge medical treatments, all funded by a Silicon Valley billionaire trying to find a treatment for his own genetic illness.
My 1995 Senior Year prom was the worst. The guy who asked me wanted nothing to do w me and at the end of what's supposed to be a girl's most beautiful dance of her senior year he leaned over and told me to have a nice life. What a jerk. I cried all the way home
@@JamaicanRain Am 30. Still feels important to me that I went. Is it the most important part of my life? No. But it is a very fond memory that I got to take my girlfriend and we had a wonderful time. I still remember helping her put the corsage on her wrist. It's a beautiful memory that I think my life would be just a little less wonderful without. Especially if the 'without' alternative included being in a hospital without any of my friends for months.
Didn't go to prom, don't care, and no regrets, highschool was an annoying part of my life I just wanted to get through it as fast as possible so I could move on to other things
Believe it or not, my high school did TWO proms. Junior and senior prom. I went to both. While they weren't life-changing, I had a damn good time. My high school was too small to host the prom nights so we rented a space in a nearby venue/theater building for both proms. They were decorated to fit a certain theme and everything. I had a lot of fun at both proms and don't regret going. So glad this girl was still able to go to her prom thanks to the doctors.
All 4 of my kids went to their senior proms. I told them they should go because it's an experience they'll never get again, but only if they wanted it. Not going was ok too. For my youngest son, it was particularly special because he's on the autism spectrum and had asked a girl to go with him. I had to make it happen even though I was a broke single mom who wasn't getting child support and was in college and had his older brother and sister in college too. Family helped me with that. The teacher who worked with him the most decided to be a chaperone for prom so my son would have someone there he knew and trusted to go to for help if the music and noise got to be too much. That teacher enjoyed being a chaperone so much that he continues to chaperone prom every year. My son and his date had a great time.
At least prom existed. Graduating class of 2020 here and I can tell you Prom was nonexistent for me, same with graduation which was eventually virtual in October when I was already in uni.
10 years ago one of our friends broke there back in a car accident a year prior and she was upset that she wouldn't be able to dance at prom with her boyfriend so me my friend and two other guy who was in a mechanics class built a small crane using a old can engine crane and then we borrowed a harness from dance class and put that one the crane and on the night of the prom we pulled it out from behind one of the doors and her eyes lit up so all of us where in a group in the corner watching her dance with her boyfriend and i felt so happy for her
I went to prom with my two girl classmates. Didn’t care about having a date at all when all the teenagers were having melt downs about dates or who was going with whom. We danced the night away and had the best time! There was no peer pressure. It was great!
I wont forget my Year 13 prom. My best friend at the time was the Head Boy and his family let me stay with them pretty much every weekend for a whole year when i got thrown out by my parents at 16. But that same year, we found out that he had a huge brain tumour. After a 13 hour surgery on the monday, he came to prom with me on the saturday. He wasnt allowed to dance and was super fatigued, sat down the whole time, but together we managed to have the last slow dance to Thinking Out Loud. We havent talked in years, but it will forever be an incredibly special moment. Now, years later, diagnosed with chronic fatigue and multiple other longterm chronic illnesses, I'm just so glad I got to experience that moment in a way that I never would have been able to just a year or two later.
12 years ago at my prom my classmates were in love and came together, the girl broke her back earlier that year, and the boy brought a mattress and pillows and blankets and sat by her side in the cabinet near the event every time she felt like couldn't stand anymore. We were amazed

They made him a special wheel barrel to carry the drum so he didn’t have to. His mom even asked him why he still goes to school when he’s not expected to live that long and he said mom I have friends and that’s all I can live for I believe after he met his goal he was able to leave in peace.

The docs might have a wheelchair ready for her whenever she might need it.
As a kid with a 2pg long list with disabilities and chronic illnesses, sometimes you just want to be like everyone else, even if just for an hour. Being in constant pain is exhausting.
@@adric9246 ain't that the truth
Because she wanted one night to feel like herself again.... she only had this problem for a few months, it was new and miserable.
Imagine if doctors actually cared like this.
Doctors should ABSOLUTELY NEVER tell a patient they will be cured. You say “ we hope “ never, “we WILL cure this is 4-6 months”
Thanks ill be sure to let the writers of this tv show know
That boy if he really care he would be in hospital with her not calling her to that prom ..
This much fuss over going to prom. I get it that its a one time thing, but life is full of one time things, and we should be encouraging her to focus on her health over trivial things.
It’s the small trivial things that makes life worth living. We get many birthdays yet there are a few we make a big deal about. Health should always be the first priority but not doing things like your senior prom hurt a lot at the time.
@@michaelablair4689 yeah true
@@michaelablair4689 But are they worth ones own health tho? Take it from me who had SEVERE asthma as a kid to the point that I was hospitalized and every time I took a breath I looked like a fish out of water, that health is MORE important then ANYTHING, that the small trivial things that happen in ones own life are a dime a dozen, you can have millions of these small things but you can only have one life
Yea
She's a teenager. Everything is so much bigger for a teenager
The way they pushed her on the bed was so aggressive oml💀
And here I was recovering from major surgery during my prom. Didn't matter since I never saw the big deal about prom and could care less about going 🤷♀️
You mean you couldn't care less?
@@seraphiccandy21 Yes XD typed that up on my phone and didn't notice, but yes, couldn't care less 🤣
Yeah. My prom sucked. The food sucked and neither one of us were extroverted enough to get up. It was mainly for the novelty.
5:49 Oh, no! Lydia screams in pain!
I am very pleased to have watched this scene Patient cannot touch anything with her skin. Pure Genius. It would be great to have doctors like that, who work well together to find the best cure for a young patient who is eager to go to the prom. The cures can be found and technology can be developed. This scene taught me that it is better to think beyond your limitations.
Staying home, eating pizza, and watching Star Wars was basically how I spent my prom. All the girls at school didn’t like me and all the boys didn’t know I existed. Jokes on them. I spent ten bucks for pizza. They spent hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on dresses and limos. Prom’s a scam, but pizza has never let me down.
The amount of effort to get her to prom was ridiculous. Her health should have come first.
Also could be CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome), a cruel pain condition I had in my foot for 10 years. If air, water, insect or hair touched it; the skin blistered far worse than it already did & bled horribly. Doctors couldn’t wrap it in dressings, as it just made it worse & anything that touched me made me scream in agony; nurses who had put their hands on my foot (against my wishes & ignoring my protesting family), they left hand/finger-marks on my skin, which became new bleeding sores that left me sobbing. In the end, a team of engineers were paid to build a protective attachment to my wheelchair that could encircle my traumatised limb & protect it from everything, but without actually touching it (it looked like an American mailbox). I used it right up to the point where I got a serious infection that finally allowed me to get the amputation surgery I’d been begging for. Amazingly, my CRPS went into remission & I’m finally free of wishing myself dead for all those years. Even the phantom pain is no worse than a mild bowel cramp in comparison. Sad that it took so long to treat properly, though. I know this sounds hard to believe, but I have an Instagram account with a photo of the protective box/wheelchair attachment, if you’d like proof. It’s a rare condition & something I wouldn’t wish on anyone, not even those who have wronged me. 🥺🏥🤷♀️
I have CRPS as well. I had a fall back in 2009. It took nearly 2 years before I was diagnosed with it in my left arm. During that time I was also diagnosed with autism and from there I have been able to live with the excruciating pain on limited pain relief (doesn't do much)
Meanwhile my doctor blames everything on ibs.
“Doctor I’m suddenly blind and all my limbs fell off”
“Yes, unfortunately that is most likely due to the ibs 🤷🏻♀️”
They really needed to get over the prom thing. Prom doesn't matter, fully healing from a severe health condition first matters more
i thought "well aren't they projecting"
i dont think they woud straight off saying they will "cure" her...maybe make her life a bit more managable..but to cure?
its better then nothing
And after her parents saw the bill they literally wished she....
Fortunately the premise of the show is that Bunker Hill is an entirely free high-tech clinic for the purposes of researching and developing cutting-edge medical treatments, all funded by a Silicon Valley billionaire trying to find a treatment for his own genetic illness.
@@brnchigginsdamn.. Thanks for the info. Sadly I wish this place was based on reality
My 1995 Senior Year prom was the worst. The guy who asked me wanted nothing to do w me and at the end of what's supposed to be a girl's most beautiful dance of her senior year he leaned over and told me to have a nice life. What a jerk. I cried all the way home
Going to that school on the ship turned London into a genius.
This was so sweet. Prom is a very important night in a teen girls life. I went 3 times and had a blast
I did online school my middle-school and high-school career so I unfortunately never got the chance to experience prom
Not exactly what people want to hear
Then you grow up and realize it is completely unimportant and doesn’t matter if you go or went.
We don't have it in my country 😅
@@JamaicanRain Am 30. Still feels important to me that I went. Is it the most important part of my life? No. But it is a very fond memory that I got to take my girlfriend and we had a wonderful time. I still remember helping her put the corsage on her wrist. It's a beautiful memory that I think my life would be just a little less wonderful without. Especially if the 'without' alternative included being in a hospital without any of my friends for months.
I was in Kidney failure and went to prom loved it
This is one of the most beautiful segments!
Those doctors are so supportive ❤❤❤ the way they were there waving at her melted my heart ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love ur profile picture 😀
Didn't go to prom, don't care, and no regrets, highschool was an annoying part of my life I just wanted to get through it as fast as possible so I could move on to other things
I'm so glad they did not have proms in the UK when I was at school it just seems a lot of pressure.
Same here. I didn't have a prom we just had a leavers do. More fun just dancing with your friends.
Believe it or not, my high school did TWO proms. Junior and senior prom. I went to both. While they weren't life-changing, I had a damn good time. My high school was too small to host the prom nights so we rented a space in a nearby venue/theater building for both proms. They were decorated to fit a certain theme and everything. I had a lot of fun at both proms and don't regret going. So glad this girl was still able to go to her prom thanks to the doctors.
This is the most wholesome video ever
All 4 of my kids went to their senior proms. I told them they should go because it's an experience they'll never get again, but only if they wanted it. Not going was ok too. For my youngest son, it was particularly special because he's on the autism spectrum and had asked a girl to go with him. I had to make it happen even though I was a broke single mom who wasn't getting child support and was in college and had his older brother and sister in college too. Family helped me with that. The teacher who worked with him the most decided to be a chaperone for prom so my son would have someone there he knew and trusted to go to for help if the music and noise got to be too much. That teacher enjoyed being a chaperone so much that he continues to chaperone prom every year. My son and his date had a great time.
2:48 London Tipton!?
i can only think of the size of the hospital bill
It’s in India and they have free healthcare there
What Hazel eyes said or wrote was so sweet.😊😊
"Be careful, only the top layer is good"
Literally 12 seconds later:
*Hugging mom*
They spent so much money to get this kid to prom. No way insurance covered any of that.
AAAHHHH!! Brenda Song! YAY MEEEE!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 (London Tipton reference)
The ending was so cute!
That prom dress is horrendous y they lying to that girl lol
Lol
Saw considerably worse in rural Ohio.
Yeah that’s sounds like my prom. Being at home eating pizza and watching starwars.
None of this would ever been approved
I hope everything goes well with her and praying for her and even her medical care
this isn't real lol
@@jonahtrejos 😭😭😭😂
Bro it's a show lol i appreciate your kindness tho!
I get it’s TV but no doctor has that much time or energy to come up with ways to get a kid to be able to go to prom.
I love that you guys are so so nice!
ok mrs brenda song aka “london tipton” i see uu in the big league now 😂
TELL ME WHY I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT “I know y’all see Brenda Song” 💀💀💀
going to a hyperbaric oxygen chamber just to make prom, and I thought my health insurance was high,.
My 'prom' here in 1980s England consisted of a barbecue & beers provided by the teachers, with cracking 80s tunes on the stereo.
Everyone should have this kind of experience, or the closest of it as possible, and it's sad that some people just can't
Wow London Tipton you’ve come a long way from your suite life days
I think it's sad to miss your prom especially when you are a patient in the hospital with a skin condition
lol...these doctors have so much time that they can go to prom with one of their patients
Most people in this situation would be like F the prom, getting better takes priority.
They're going to risk her experiencing a lot of pain, getting infections, causing long term damage etc, so she can go to a school dance, bloody yanks
At least prom existed. Graduating class of 2020 here and I can tell you Prom was nonexistent for me, same with graduation which was eventually virtual in October when I was already in uni.
She is lovely
her face is clean
London Tipton a scientist now. Yay her!👏👏👏
Holy Crap Wendy Wu is ageless!
10 years ago one of our friends broke there back in a car accident a year prior and she was upset that she wouldn't be able to dance at prom with her boyfriend so me my friend and two other guy who was in a mechanics class built a small crane using a old can engine crane and then we borrowed a harness from dance class and put that one the crane and on the night of the prom we pulled it out from behind one of the doors and her eyes lit up so all of us where in a group in the corner watching her dance with her boyfriend and i felt so happy for her
Does anyone else find it ..... odd to hear smart things come out of london tipton's mouth? XD I have never gotten used to it.
She cant touch anything:
Her clothes:🗿
The bed:🗿
The pillow:🗿
The bandages on her leg:🗿
I went to prom with my two girl classmates. Didn’t care about having a date at all when all the teenagers were having melt downs about dates or who was going with whom. We danced the night away and had the best time! There was no peer pressure. It was great!
Still weird hearing London talk smart like super smart😂
Has a problem touching anything, has no problem face timing Pete 😂
Be safe out there yall
I guess Seven Seas High worked at getting London Tipton smarter haha. Good job Mr Moseby.
Fairy goddoctors? "You shall go to the ball!"
I thought my prom was gonna just be like any other school dance, but it eas the worst out of all of them and i stayed a total of 20 minutes
'k.
I wish the schools in Jamaica had proms they look so great I would had a wonderful high school memory to remember
She's a doctor in House MD too 🥰
Went from killing people as reign to saving them as Zoe
That's so nice of him to get her told shoes cute
i love the other black haired lab persons voice
I wont forget my Year 13 prom. My best friend at the time was the Head Boy and his family let me stay with them pretty much every weekend for a whole year when i got thrown out by my parents at 16. But that same year, we found out that he had a huge brain tumour. After a 13 hour surgery on the monday, he came to prom with me on the saturday. He wasnt allowed to dance and was super fatigued, sat down the whole time, but together we managed to have the last slow dance to Thinking Out Loud. We havent talked in years, but it will forever be an incredibly special moment. Now, years later, diagnosed with chronic fatigue and multiple other longterm chronic illnesses, I'm just so glad I got to experience that moment in a way that I never would have been able to just a year or two later.
That is as loooong as Garten of banban's lines
love how Brenda Song went from the idiot London Tipton to a doctor
I never went to prom. But choice. I'm an introvert and didn't like large loud gatherings
I didn't know this was a Science Fiction Medical Drama
