On October 31, 1998 Salem Rosetta Heart was born at South Stone Memorial. At the age of 14 she was diagnosed by her doctor, Karen A. Johnstons, with Schizophrenia, a disease that makes her unaware of who she is. Her father soon bought a hospital where the schizophrenic group of people could be cared for, called the Schiz Heart Mental Hospital. She sometimes imagines another person who she has named Samantha Dylan Heart. She unwillingly changes into two different people. Samantha is unpredictable and could come out at the most bizarre times. Most people think Salem is just crazy but they do not know what is going on in her life. All she wants is to be cured, but she always says that it is impossible.

One day at the Schiz Heart Mental Hospital Salem got a new room in the hospital today. Salem was so excited to get her new room because, her dad said that they could get different colored foam for the walls and floor, but Samantha thought differently. “NOOOO,” Samantha screamed, but only Salem could hear her. Salem kept trying to convince Sam to stop yelling and that it was going to be a good experience to have the new room, “The room will be bigger and way better, so please, please, …show more content…
She saw Dr. Johnstons coming in and got excited, but then remembered she broke her arm. Dr. Johnstons came into Salem’s room, turned around then closed and locked the door. “You cannot tell anyone what I’m about to tell you, okay,” she said softly. “Okay,” Salem replied. Dr. Johnstons started to finish what she was saying, “I am trying to find a cure for schizophrenia. Don’t get your hopes up for it to be soon, but i won’t stop until I find a cure.” Salem got a huge grin on her face and said that she will be patient while Dr. Johnstons was testing cures. “I thought it was impossible to find a cure for Schizophrenia,” Salem added. “Nothing is impossible,” Dr. Johnstons said before she

    Rosetans And Heart Disease

    Stewart Wolf attempted various investigations on why few Rosetans suffer from heart disease under the age of sixty-five.
