Thank you for sharing.

I was born very early,at 7 months and weighed 1pound 14oz...a very small preemie.Way back in 1947 theire wasnt a lot as now to do to help babies so small.I spent lots of time in the hospital even after I got up into my toddleing years for one surgery or another.Its said that at those ages we dont remember things like that...BS I can tell u its a crock full of it.Where I dont full remember it I do have vague memories and feelings of how it was,sort of like a hazy dream you cant quite see everything.I remember being poked,proded,handled,being knocked out on drugs then wakeing to horrible
pain then more of the same till I went home ..Its said we dont remember thinsg from this age,BS caues its like a foggy dream I cant quit see it all just feel the misery and not wanting to be touched anymore.Over they years I have learned how to deal with touch but there are some people,who no fault of there own,I cant stand the touch of.One of my oldest friends who has long passed was like this...give me a hug dont touch me with your hands.Why,cause therywere like ice , even in the summer.Some peoples touch is like a strange disconnection..bad vibes sort of feeling.Thank the godess most touch is just fine as long as it stays in bounds with my stoness.As I look back on it all its probbly why or part of what made me a stone butch.
