The struggles of Allison include that I have been writing these blogs and have yet to introduce myself to whoever you creatures are reading this. Well for starters, my name is Allison Schaeper, but most people call me Addie or Loko. I am currently 16 years old and attending Diamond Oaks Institute of Technology, it sounds all fancy but it is not all that. I attend this school mainly to take health technology, as of right now I am currently a State Tested Nurses Aide (STNA) which means I can legally work at any nursing home and take care of the residents who live there. I absolutely love being able to help people who cant do much to help themselves. I am not stopping here though, next year at this time I will have my PCA, and two years after that I will have my degree in respiratory therapy, which is what I am truly working towards, see my sister, Krystal, she died at age 20 of a lung disease called Cystic Fibrosis. My sister needed a nurse that had a degree in respiratory therapy, pretty much just a nurse on how to help her breathe.  Well besides that all I do is babysit, and if you were reading my past blogs you would already know this, but besides that I play a lot of sports. I play soccer, volleyball, softball , basketball and I did cross country for a while. Well that sums of the basics.
