**Start your story here:**

Once upon a time there was a little girl named Katie. She was a petite child with long dark hair and eyes that sparkled like the crystal blue waters. Katie was not like most normal children. Her parents Mr and Mrs. Carmel knew this the day that she was born. How did they realize that she was different you might ask? The day Katie was born her mother gave her a bottle and as soon as the bottle touched her little lips, it turned into fruit punch. Then once she was old enough to eat solid food everything that touched her lips turned into a different type of candy. Soon this ability got out of hand, so her mom and dad gave her healthy food to see if this ability would go away. But the healthy food turned into hot chocolate. Mom and dad came up with an idea. One day they gave her candy to see if it would turn into healthy food, but that didn’t work. Soon her parents noticed that whatever she ate her eyes turned that color too. **Mr. and Mrs. Carmel thought that it was very strange that Katie was turning things into hot chocolate. Since her eyes were turning colors they decided to take her to the doctor. After an examination the doctor decided that Katie had Eggna which is a disease. There is a possibility that the disease could just wear off, but just in case the doctor gave her a small white pill. Then, he sent Katie home to rest. At home Katie began to turn the color of the blanket she was covered up with! Her parents gasped and rushed her to the car. They tricked her and told her that they were going to the candy store, but really they were taking her to get surgery. During surgery they found out something amazing about Katie.**

The surgeon had never seen this before! They discovered that Katie’s blood was flowing backwards. The surgeon looked back at her blood work. Her blood count was off. She had the usual red blood cells, but instead of white blood cells, it showed she had ‘color changing candy’ blood cells.

The news was shocking. It took a minute, then Mr. Carmel said, “Really?!” I heard a story once, about my great, great, great-grandfather, who had a blood disorder.
