8 weeks

For the past week and a half I’ve felt the worst that I’ve ever felt. I feel so poorly, my nose is congested and I can’t eat anything or put anything next to my nose. I’m barely getting any sleep. I’m so drained and I just feel so sick.

Boy name

I looked up Caspian and found that the name is derived from Caspii which means "white". As a non white kid, do you think he would/ could be bullied b.c of that?
