I wished this day had never came. After cheer I had a doctor's appointment. The worst kind of doctors appointments. I was being tested for cancer. None of my cheer friends knew. I was being rushed out the door to get in the car. " Hey my little fighter! " My mom, Kelly, said trying to cheer me up, " are you nervous? " She asked.
" just a little, " I lied.
I was so nervous, I couldn't sit still.
The doctor's office seemed like a cage. It felt like it kept getting smaller & smaller. I was stuck. Who knew after I walked out of here I might have cancer.
It seemed like 4 hours before they called my name, " Gabby Ferguson! "
I slowly walked back to the room. She brought me to a scale. " 120 1/2 " it read. Great, I had lost 7 pounds since last weigh in.Next she brought me into what seemed like a maze with about 20 hallways and what seemed like 30 doors. She sat me down on the doctor's bed with most annoying crackling paper sitting underneath me. " Hello Miss. Gabby. how are you doing? "
" Well besides the fact I'm getting checked for cancer; good, I guess. "
" Don't worry sweetie, "
she continued trying to cheer me up,
" It's not as bad as it seems! "
