Have you ever wondered what it is like in the mind of a person with schizophrenia? How can one survive day after day of being unable to distinguish between one's inner nightmares and the everyday realities that most of us take for granted? Mental disorder is devastating, especially when it seizes a ten-year-old just beginning her life.
This story is about a young girl named Allison Clarke battling a rare case of childhood schizophrenia. Alli was a girl with short curly black hair and dark-brown eyes. She was stick thin and a little pale. Her face was angular and slim, and she had a honeyed voice. She lived with her parents and younger brother.
Allison was diagnosed with schizophrenia at the age of ten. It all started with muttering to herself and was then followed with a supernatural encounter. She began to believe no one would understand her. And no one did. This led to secluding herself more and more, withdrawing deeper into inanimate objects. She had a life inside her head, and an outside world was not needed anymore. She believed and knew deep down in her heart that miracles do take place. She didn't give up, at least not in the world she grew up in . . .
Thank you Ms. Amala Antony for your beautiful artwork illustrations. May God bless You and have a bright future ahead.
