"In middle school, xxxxxx develops Bell's palsy, a debilitating condition that partially paralyzes the face. While suffering from the malady - it went away within a year - his left eye closes and he is unable to eat or drink properly, earning the nickname Frankenstein. "That was the worst time of my life," he tells the Mirror in 2003. "You know how cruel kids can be. I was mocked and taunted, but the experience made me stronger." And the celebrity is . . . George Clooney http://www.people.com/people/george_clooney/0,,,00.html and this . . . "George Clooney resorted to risky surgery to relieve him of agonising headaches and short-term memory loss caused by a back injury." Hmmmmm, could it be?

Wow! How interesting...that would explain his reclusivity (never hear about his private life) and his humility. He doesn't "seem" to be suffering now but then again, who would really know? I don't think most people could tell how much I was suffering. -------------------- Clarissa Because I knew you: I have been changed for good.

Man oh man...he grew up in Kentucky!! I met him once, my daughter was in 4th grade and had a big crush on him. He signed her report card envelope, because that's all I had on me. He made my knees buckle.
