"Yes, there was one thing that I missed not being able to do - walk on a beach. I've always had this ..." — Liz Carr

Whilst many brides have dreamt about their wedding dress since childhood, I've had nightmares about having to wear children's clothes on my big day.

Some women brag about still being able to fit into their wedding dress. Well, I can still fit into my Brownie uniform.

As a teen, I never went on holiday, because all my summers were spent in hospital. And as if that wasn't bad enough, the hospital in question was in Slough.

My medical case notes describe me as: 'skeletally deformed with severe contractures and stunted growth.' I prefer to think of myself as petite and slim, with an unconventionally fascinating body.
