Terminal Diagnosis

Terminal Diagnosis Chpter 1

This kind of subject is and has been an open wound on me for 4 years it is no walk in the park for me to think about nevermind reminding myself of what my Aunt went through the last 5 years she had.

This wasn't a rewrite or a storyline that was given on General Hospital at least it wasn't given to Denise Alexander's character but for me it was a way to let go of my Aunt and what she went through so she could rest in peace 🕊️.

On the morning of March 4th, it was just a few days before Riley's 4th birthday, which Lesley felt she still had an endless trail of work to do to put together his party. Lesley waited until Rick left for the hospital and Alice was there for the day but Lesley knew Alice was gonna be asking if she was okay as she started to notice she was losing more weight and she wasn't really feeling good that morning but she also started to find what looked to be a few bruises again.

" Girls come on... You're both gonna miss the bus if you don't get going for school." Lesley called out while picking up in Riley's room.

" We're going... Mom are you sure you're feeling okay?" Genesis asked

" Yeah I'm fine Ladybug... Both of you have a good day and remember to go straight to the hospital after school today because no one will be home this afternoon with your Dad heading to catch his flight for Nevada after tomorrow" Lesley replied while starting to try to get ready for work

" We will... We'll see you later."

Lesley started to let out a breath she wasn't aware she had after the girls left meanwhile, she started to feel like she was gonna need to run to the bathroom after Jessie had just gotten there to give Lesley a ride but noticed and didn't pretend that Lesley was fine and made a point to question Lesley after she had seen that Lesley was just freshening up again after vomiting again that morning

" Lesley are you alright.... You really don't look good."

" Jessie honestly this morning and last night have been alittle bit difficult, I was up on and off again throwing up I've started to lose more weight and I have started to notice that I have a few bruises but it isn't from anything I can think of and it isn't from Rick, because he would never do anything like getting violent."

Now Jessie gave Lesley a serious look " Lesley how long has this been going on?"

" Almost a couple of months... But I've been so busy with everything going on that I haven't had the time to schedule a check up."

" Has Rick said anything about this?" Jessie asked

" I've been keeping this so far from him.... I've been keeping the bruises from him I mean. He's been so concerned about everything else, and then he gets worried about me... I just don't want to worry him more but he has been trying to get me in to going to see someone which is where l sometimes feel stupid because l kept telling him i'd get it taken care of and then l always get steered to something else.." Lesley turned away slightly

" Lesley... Sometimes it's okay for someone to be frightened or worried about us... It means they love us and with you it shows just the kind of a man that Rick really is... I'm gonna schedule and have you seen today.... I don't want you to wait or put it off anymore."

" No.... I don't want to do that until Rick takes off for Nevada to see his brother.... Jessie please... I don't wanna worry him or tell him anything unless there's something to worry about.." Lesley pleaded

" Alright... When does he leave for his trip?" Jessie asked

" He leaves the day after tomorrow" Lesley answered quickly.

" Lesley, I don't think we should wait only because it's gone on too long already. I'm gonna set up for this afternoon and I will make sure that Rick won't know about it until we have something to worry about." Jessie stated when Lesley was about to go back to the bathroom throwing up
