Overview

400 millilitres. That’s how much liquid was drained from Michael’s left testicle. That’s more than a can of Coke. He should have told someone sooner, but who could he turn to? His dad died ten years ago, and besides, school is full of rumours about what the giant bulge in his trousers actually is. Who wants to stop that?
