Peanut, age 4 1/2 with CF

imagine a world with no imperfect people...no shorties, no faatties, no skinny tall awkward ones, nor ones who need glasses or hearing aids or God forbide, wheelchairs...

imagine a world where we all look alike, same height, same weight, same size breast in women and same size manhoods in men, same straight nose...we wouldn't want any ethnic heritage to show thru....

imagine a world without Helen Keller, or Vincent VanGogh, or any of the "different" mentally or physically challenged people that added huge accomplishments to the human race...imagine no Abe Lincoln, who ended slavery and tried to make piece in America....he was different...gangly,certainly not handsome, awkward....
