"Wake up Marisa, your gonna be late for school!" I sat up in my bed and yawned. It was almost 7:30 in the morning oh crap! I silently cursed at myself, I was supposed to be at my bus stop twenty minutes ago. I jumped up as fast as I could, grabbing some clothes from my closet. As soon as I was dressed, I ran out of my room to see my dad laughing at me. What the heck is up with him, how is this funny? I'm gonna miss my bus! "Marisa relax it's Saturday, I was kidding." He smiled at me. All I could do was punch his shoulder so hard, it probably would bruise. "Whoa, I'm suddenly kinda dizzy." I say as I collapse into the chair next to me. "Take it easy honey, you just sat down a bit to fast." He looked at me, concern plastered all over his face. "I'm fine just another head rush." I say calmly. Lately I had been getting a lot of these times where I would feel dizzy and need to sit down for a while. My dad always told me it was part of my heart problems. You see, I was born with two dime sized holes in my heart, so my dad blames that for my shortage of breath. The weekend seemed to fly by really fast, and soon enough I was getting ready to go to school in Monday. As soon as I got home I sat down with my dad to talk about my day. I was half way over to the couch when my knees buckled and my vision went blurry. What just happened! Am I having a major head rush? Normally if I fall I don't black out, what the heck is happening?!
