I have Acute Tendinopathy which isn’t anything to do with the brain it is something to do with my foot.

I have had my foot problem for just over three-years now and I haven’t done PE for that amount of time.

I have had to find other hobbies to do like sketching and playing the flute. It has also been interrupting my school life because I used to miss two to three days of school a week.

I was also bullied for a little bit because rumours were going around that it was fake. My mum and my dad have been there all the way, no matter how bad it was.

I have been told lots of different things about my foot problem, like for four months everyone thought it was arthritis and I was on a very strong medicine called methotrexate, that made me feel awful.

Before that the doctors thought it was Plantar Fasciitis and that wasn’t very good either.

Now everything has changed because my current doctor says my foot problem will be gone by the end of June this year!
