For our final performance: A story written by Fester, the disgruntled abscess of one of your fellow sufferers (the hilarious Penny Jo)...

"Hi guys, my name is Fester and I am at least 13 years old. I still live at home - a beautiful place in the north of England - more specifically in Penny_jo's bum cleft. It's a nice warm place where I feel safe and protected, sadly though the word on the street is that I will be kicked out at the end of next week if I don't move out :-( I don't know when I moved here but I met Penny_jo when she was 13. Unfortunately I was incorrectly introduced as a boil which clearly made the neighborhood angry as the local constabulary (anti-biotic squad) were dispatched to remove me from the area. So I pretended to leave and went into hiding for a few years, keeping myself busy making improvements to my home...an extension here....an extension there...lots of corridors joining them all up - you get the idea. After five years of hiding out I decided it was time to start leaving the house and showing myself, lucky for me this time I was left alone...but still no one asked me my name. Feeling lonely and dejected I tried my best to get Penny_jo's attention by showing myself, leaving 'gifts' and following her around at every opportunity; sadly though I was ignored. We lived in this state for many years. I was very unhappy. Penny_jo was always shouting at me and was never nice - sure she kept me clean and bathed me but I could tell she thought it was a chore and not out of friendship - she certainly never introduced me to any of her friends or boyfriends!

Then my world was turned upside down last September.... I had left a lovely 'gift' for Penny_jo and her new boyfriend outside my house...it was a beautiful crimson red and there was loads of it. I don't understand why, but when Penny_jo discovered it on her white skirt (!) she went mad, much madder than before - she swore that she was going to get rid of me and that she was fed up with me...me! the one who gives her all of these gifts just to be ignored for all these years! Three days later I found a certain Nirvana...I was finally introduced formally with my surname 'Pilonidal Cyst' by her doctor friend, but the happiness lasted only moments before I was hurled into oblivion and a deep depression on hearing the words 'operation' and 'remove'.....after all these years she still wanted me gone! even now after a formal introduction! There and then I made the decision to move out.

Three months later and the dynamics of our relationship have changed, Penny_jo has given me a nickname (Fester), read a lot of my family history on this website and taken better care of me...she has also bought me a special cushion! She has even introduced me to a few of her friends...one is a doctor and another is a surgeon, she even has a friend who is a nurse! a strange coincidence but very lucky if she ever gets ill. I find it strange though that all her friends want me to move out too, and they prod and poke me about. I don't really like it. I have resigned myself to the inevitable moving out day next week, before that though me and Penny_jo are taking a vacation to a nice hotel...I think it's called 'The Hospital', snazzy eh?! Then after that I will move out. It will be strange not being together even though we have had a very emotionally draining relationship...but I can't take this rejection anymore :-( I'll send you all a postcard! Fester x "
