"Happy 16th birthday!" James and I said to the girls.
"Thanks." They say in unison.
"Oh, you girls are gorgeous!" I say and a tear escapes my eyes.
"Mom." they both say.
"Go shopping or something." I laugh.
The hug us and leave.
"Babe, I have to go get my results " I tell James.
"Drive safe " he kisses my cheek and I go to the doctor.

"Carly" the doctor calls me.
I follow back and get everything. I need.
"Is cancer common in your family?" he asks.
"Yes."
"Well." He says and opens a folder.
His jaw dropped. Never a good sign.
"Doctor?" I asked.
