My Hobbies:

Like most kids, I have hobbies that interest me. I am an avid movie fan and have a collection of DVD’s and Marvel action figures. I probably have about 100 action figures. My favorites are Spiderman and Hulk. Reading is one of the things I do in my spare time. I enjoy reading Marvel comic books and fiction. I really like reading the comics because when I read them, I feel like I’m transported into another world. Harry Potter is one of the first series I read and I once won a contest for the best Harry Potter costume when I was younger. I really like Harry Potter because I can relate to him as a kid who overcomes challenges’ just recently saw the new movie and thought it was great. Right now I’m reading The World According to Garp by John Irving.

About My Life:

Hi my name is Kyle Plunkett. I’ve lived with Hunter Syndrome for 16 years. It’s been my curse, my gift and my life. I always did all the things “normal” kids did but still had challenges to face. I go through life with my head up and never look back. I’ve set goals for myself that include going to college, starting a career and having a family. Right now I live at home with my Mom, Dad, older brother Dan, and two dogs named Nilly and Marley and a cat named Rita. I am a junior in high school and looking forward to planning for college. I’m ready to see what the world has in store for me.
