The next day
I awake to doctors and nurses surrounding me. They're adjusting tubes and moniters and wires that I guess are attached to me somehow. I can't really feel them if they are. I see my mom sitting in the corner reading. She reads the weirdest romance fantasy novels. I read the first chapter of one of them just to see what it was and it was all these people on a ship and stuff.
Alisha, Britt, Jason, Liam, and cole are here now. This is probably the second time they've come to visit me in the hospital. It kinda sucks having you're friends seeing you like this in the hospital. I think most people are just waiting for the news that iam dead. I was never really that popular at school. I never really hung out with anyone. You could call me a loser but my classmates had other names for me. I really only hang out with Liam. Who also isn't the most popular, at least he has a girlfrien. Although she is a part of the chess team and her face is covered in pimples waiting to be popped.
my teachers all hated me until they found out I have cancer. But even then they questioned me asking if I ever smoked. I haven't. But anyways they started letting me skip homework and I have had extended due dates. Speaking of dates I haven't been on one in at least 4 months. I guess having terminal lung cancer really isn't a chic magnet.
" how are you feeling " Dr Sarah asks while batting her kind eyes. " good i guess. But how can you feel when you have cancer." I retort back. her cheerful smile turns into a depressing smile.shes fiddling with the wires and the tubes again. " am I going to die." I ask while I have the time. " andrew! Don't say that!" My mom says from her reading nook in the corner. I decide not to fight with her If I do she might kill me herself. " umm iam sort of hungry, is it ok if I walk to the cafeteria?" I turn towards Sarah again. " sure just please try not to make any sudden hard movements and please eat healthy." She says grabbing her doctory clipboard thingy and writes some jot notes in to it.
the rthe food here really sucks. I wouldn't recomend the hospital cafeteria to any looking for a good place for food. I might just pass and go for a walk. This is usually the time that I would go to the train station and sit and think. I can't really do that anymore.
Iam am back in my bed debating weather I should sleep or not. i lay staring at the dark distant ceiling. are my days in the hospital going to be the same because it's pretty boring. I start drifting off while thinking about this.
its 1:09 and I'm awake as ever. I cant breathe and my mom is screaming for doctors and nurses. Is ther something wrong with me. Iam wheezing like that old penguin toy from toy story. Sarah sprints in my room and starts ripping the sheets off the bed and poking me for a pulse. There are at least nine nurses and doctors in this room. " get the OR ready we need him in surgery right away. His heart is failing." One shouts. my mom is wheaping in the corner with her face in her palms yelling " why" " Why God please tell us why, why us!" she's shouting over and over again until a nurse goes up to her and takes her out of the room. I am trying to yell to say something but the words can't come out. My eyes are shot out of my head and I can see everything until it all goes black. Iam uncontios.
