I was about three in my earliest memory.I had to have surgery on my back to remove a potentially cancerous mole.I remember going to the hospital before the day of my surgery and picking out the flavor on the anesthesia and I watched the nurse show me exactly what would happen on a big teddy bear.I also remember waking up from my surgery and when asked what I wanted to watch I picked Barney.I think that this memory was particularly memorable because I was scared and nervous and I was very young.This type of experience is easier to remember.Also, it affected my senses, such as smelling, so maybe that helped me remember the memory so vividly.I think my personality is different now that it was then because I have a better understanding of what is going on around me now and I would know more what to expect and not be as scared as I was when I was three.The thing that has stayed the same is the fact that I still dont like hospitals.
