( Willow POV)
I don't understand why I'm always the victim. Why am I always the one to talk about? I am 16, I have Cystic Fibrosis, and I am a victim of bullying. People are always making fum of me because of my disability. I am a normal teenager just like anyone else. The only difference is that I have to do a Vest and take Creon when I eat. I wish people could know what its like to have this.
People call me a walking disaster because I have a lung disease . I have no friends because people are afraid that if they get to close to me they will get infected with the disease. Do they not understand it's genetic?!
I just want someone to stand up for me and to pray that I will get better. My lungs have been getting worse and I've been in the hospital two times this month. I don't know why bad things happen to people who are already struggling. In the 9th grade my best friend Rose died in a car accident with a drunk Taxi driver. I have lost all my self esteem and have become depressed. After that accident I've had no one. I can't find a reason to still be here. I'm holding onto every bit of hope I have to help me find a reason to stay. Maybe that reason is walking towards me. Or maybe it's all in my head.
So I wrote this book in honor of my brother. He has cystic fibrosis and is the healthiest thing. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease that involves built up mucus in the lung, trouble digesting food and missing your pancreas. Please comment and vote. Love you guys! Xoxo Cierra
