City: Metairie

Brain Injury: Astrosytoma (tumor)

Explanation of Mask: My mask represents my tumor.  My tumor left a hole in my brain, which caused me to become forgetful.  My masks represents the fact that I can’t remember names and people.  However, after a couple of years, I realized that my life is a wonderful thing for me.  I notice that I really love myself.  I feel God saved me to help others and to be happy with myself.  I learned that life is a wonderful thing.  It makes me happy to care for others.
