Niall's Pov
I'm Niall, Nolan and Norman's brother. There's not much to say about me. I spent most of my life in the hospital. I have osteoarthritis.
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease. It causes the tissues in the joints to break down all the time. I got it from my grandpa. My life sucks, I know. I can't walk long distance or hold objects for more than thirty seconds. Sometimes, I can't walk or even stand up. I was bed ridden for a long time. But now, things are looking up for me. I left the hospital few months ago. A woman came and she introduced herself as my grandma, dad's mom. I think I remember her but I'm not sure. Not everyone remembers people from when they were young. The hospital was my home.I don't know a lot of things. She told me that I had another brother. I thought Nolan was the only brother I had, but I was wrong.
Apparently he also lived in the hospital. He is hearing impaired and also has chronic asthma. It sucks right?, I know. We all have our tribulations. Grandma said Nolan had Reactive attachment disorder(RAD) and he always received therapy. But he didn't get better. Dad made his life a living hell. He was constantly abused. He got worse when mom died. Yes, I don't have a mom anymore. I don't even remember her.
Dad ruined Nolan. Grandma said he lost his mind. He had nightmares every night , his words don't make any sense. Sometimes, he becomes destructive. She tried everything, until a psychiatrist recommended a special school to her. She had to ship him off to Japan since he wasn't getting better. She sent him to a famous school for special people like himself.
Sometimes I wish we were never born. We are so unlucky. The pain is just too much. None of us had a normal childhood. Dad was a lunatic and mom?, she couldn't do anything. Turned out Dad had locked her up in an underground cellar for six years. Mom must be so unlucky to get married to man like dad.
After Norman's accident , dad gave up on him. He didn't want such a weakling as his son. That was what the doctor told grandma. He had paid them to take care of him as he was ashamed that he had such a weakling as a son. Grandma said the only reason he kept me was because I reminded him of grandpa.
Grandma told me that she wants us to live together. I'm ecstatic. I will be reunited with my brothers.
