I Have PA
Storyboard Tekst
- Hi, my name is Tyler and I just learned that I have something called PA.
- If you're like me, you might be thinking, "What is PA?".
- Well let's talk about it!
- PA is short for propionic acidemia. This means I can't eat certain foods because my body doesn't know how to break them down.
- The foods I can't eat have a lot of protein or certain fats. This means I can't have foods like meats, eggs, cheese, milk, and nuts.
- I do get to eat a lot of yummy foods though, like fruits, veggies, bread, and pasta like spaghetti!
- My body also doesn't like to go too long without food, so sometimes that means eating more often than people around me.
- I've learned to love snack time though. I'm learning how to count and measure to keep me healthy!
- If I go too long without eating, eat the wrong thing, or get sick I won't feel too good.
- Sometimes this means I might throw up, feel really tired, have trouble breathing, or not want to eat much.
- When this happens I might need to take a trip to the hospital.
- Sometimes that can be scary, but I'm glad I have people who care about me there to make it better.
- But with the help of my parents and special vitamins, I can hopefully take these trips less often!
- Other than eating differently than some of my friends or classmates. I might be shorter or learn in a way that might be different.
- Not everyone who has PA is the same, but one thing we have in common is that we're awesome!
