David had friends and classmates who came visit him. One of his friends even arranged the showing of Return of the Jedi at a local movie theatre where David was transported in the transparent bubble that was used to transport him from hospital to his house.
When David was four years old, he started poking holes in his cocoon. He used a butterfly syringe that was left in his bubble by accident. That’s when his doctor told him about the danger he runs by doing it because of his condition. This day David for the first time discovered his special condition.
At only five, David completely recognized his difference and was afraid what the future held for him.
Although the press created an image of a healthy young boy trapped in a bubble, David was psychologically unstable, primarily due to the lack of human contact, and the seeming hopelessness of his condition. Normally presenting a painstakingly polite facade, he was increasingly angry and depressed about his condition and would act out, expressing rage in a variety of ways, including once spreading his own excrement around the bubble. David was also extremely anxious about germs, including repeated nightmares about the "King of Germs".
Meanwhile, religion has nothing to do with parents' desire to preserve the lives of their children, or doctors' fulfilment of their Hippocratic Oath to preserve life. Antitheistic fanatics who are parents or doctors are just as apt to react that way, as religious fanatics. You're human too, you know.
poor little boy,
his situation was so grim,
very depressing,he is in a better place now
"No, its Moops"
