              It can only get worse

Chases POV:
It's funny how a few hours can completely change a person.

Late last night, when I saw her sewing she was energized and happy.

A few hours ago when she went to back to bed and I called Delilah and Ivan.

We've been at her bedside for a bit now. She's awake but she's not. She isn't looking so good, she looks very sick. I do feel terrible for her. I just wish she could be better already.

The doctor came in and said hello to everyone

Dr.Jones: "Charli, how are you feeling?"

She took a deep breath

Charli: "Grand"
A small smile grew on her face

Dr.Jones: "I see that"
She walked further into the room and looked down at her charts

Dr.Jones: "if you want to keep your hair from thinning, I suggest you do scalp cooling therapy right now."

She can barley talk without feeling tired?? How is she supposed to do scalp cooling therapy?

Charli: "ok"

We all looked at her like she was crazy

Ivan: "Charli you can't even stand up?? How are you gonna do this?"

She pushed her legs to the side of the bed and quickly stood up, as soon as she got up she fainted-

I quickly caught her in my arms

Chase: "you've got to stop this?? She's on too many drugs! It's killing her"
I placed her down onto the bed

She just fainted by standing up?? That isn't normal

Dr.Jones: "with all the drugs she's on, fainting is normal. You have to understand that this isn't a choice. if we could, we'd put her on less drugs."

I guess I can't be mad at the hospital for this... it's just hard to see her this way... and if looking at her like this is making me sad, I wonder how Ivan and Delilah feel.

Delilah: "My poor little sister"
She cried into Charli

I put my hand on her back trying to comfort her

Chase: "how longs the first round of chemo? When will this end?"
Dr.Jones: "She will be back to normal in around 2 maybe 3 weeks."

2 to 3 weeks?! How is she supposed to last that long like this!

Ivan: "put her on more drugs please! I can't bare to see her like this."
Dr.Jones: "she's taken all the drugs we can give her. She's in no pain. She just feels weak and tired. Try not to make her feel different, make her feel like she's normal"

She's right. I know I'd hate it if everyone around me treated me like I was dying. Charli is dying. But she doesn't want to be treated like that.

Chase: "it gets easier every round right? The first rounds the hardest?"

She doctor stood their silently

Ivan: "right?"

The doctor slowly shook her head

Chase: "You're telling me it only gets worse?"
