had been resolved,
but this only raised
more questions for me.
Carrots, bell peppers,
these are tomatoes over here.
And over here, we've got
some asparagus starting,
which is our favorite vegetable.
Back there is cucumbers.
Which is my favorite vegetable.
And we've got some
herbs back there.
And we're trying to do this
without any chemicals
or any fillers,
just water and sun.
- That's it.
- No bug spray.
- No bug spray, no nothing.
- No fertilizer.
As you may know, I'm a chef
and she's in the food
business as well,
so we're both pretty
knowledgeable of nutrition
and this was kind of an idea
I've been wanting to have
in my own yard,
but also something
that we had talked about
with the school board.
Maybe doing a garden,
have the students
in summertime co-op
and have their own vegetables
at school, you know.
Teach children something
that they can take away,
Because it tastes so much better
when you know
you've done the work
to get it there, so, um...
It's amazing to think
that a family like this
received a notice
about health and nutrition.
Later that day,
Maddie told me
about her own struggles.
Um, uh, my condition
is human growth
hormone disorder.
Uh, that means I can't
grow like a normal child
and I can't lose weight, so...
And I can't grow teeth
and I'm very slow
and, like, that whole process.
In spite of her condition,
Maddie was getting along
just fine at school,
until one day in gym class.
Nurses, I guess from the state,
came and weighed us
and measured us
and it really
made me uncomfortable
because there's another child
in there too with you.
So I mean, it just, like,
really made me feel awkward
and I really didn't wanna do it.
Did they give you a choice?
No, they made us do it.
What Maddie didn't realize
is that the district
on something more
than just academics.
And here was my report card.
Then I found this letter
or what's left of it anyways.
And it basically says
that, you know,
I'm high in my weight
and I ripped it up
and I threw it in the trashcan.
She got the mail that day
with great anticipation
of receiving money
from her good grades
and she didn't wanna talk to me,
so she ran to her room
so then I went
to the garbage can
and found that she had shredded
part of what came in the mail
and it was the letter
from the district.
My mom found it
and pieced all the pieces
that she could find together.
But obviously,
not the letter was found.
I felt like I wasn't accepted
in the society, basically.
