I live outside Albuquerque, New Mexico. There are only 2 kids in the whole state with congenital hyperinsulinism. I don’t know this other child. I’ve met kids with hyperinsulinism once when I was 7.

This picture of a dolphin makes me happy because I have always liked animals, and in particular the dolphin. I know a lot about dolphins and I have seen dolphins on our trip we took to Hawaii. This specific dolphin is a spinner dolphin and this is the breed of dolphin I saw in Hawaii. They can spin seven times in the air without having to dive back into the water, which I think is pretty amazing. When I saw them spinning I couldn’t count how many spins they took, but it looked like a lot, and they were spinning very fast.
