Mike: I am in seventh grade and I can’t see red or green. It is really terrible because during Christmas my brain goes insane. Taylor: At least you can see some colors. Mike: ya but I have trouble detecting the different shades of colors and the brightness of them. And i wanna be a famous artist! But i fail the class Taylor: You think you have it bad.I fail most classes. I cannot see any color. Apparently it is really rare to be totally color blind, and in school I have a hard time reading and writing. MIke: My eyes always move weirdly and I look like alien do you have that problem too?!? Taylor: Yep when i went to the doctors and my eyes moved weirdly and he laughed at my face. I'm a total freak!!! Mike:really? Taylor: yes and he also told me all about how you are colorblind Mike: What did he say Taylor:He said that "color blindness happens when color sensing pigments in a certin nerve cell have a problem." Blah Blah BLah " In your case you cannot see any color at all"....LIke a dog!!!! "you can only can see shades of black and white this is called Achromatopia". Taylor: well daa like i didnt know i only could see shades of gray, ive had it all my life.

Mike: that cool thanks sam!! :0 Sam: And Dr. Tadesco is right laugh about it, colorblindness is a much more harmless disease and is pretty cool, it may be hard and challenging to get through but is does not make the things you want todo impossible.
