This morning I awoke to doctors frantically storming around my room. I looked up at my mom but couldn't see any of my family members. I heard doctors saying something about, "...gone wrong...emergency surgery...cancer has spread..." I began to panic and I tried to sit up. Hands pushed my weak shoulders down and I saw a needle go into the IV, injecting some sort of medicine. I sighed, I knew it would knock me out. I glanced around once more, and saw Noah standing in the doorway horror struck, and then everything became fuzzy and I passed out.
I woke up with major cotton mouth. My hand went to my dry throat while I opened my eyes. Suddenly people were surrounding me and everything was chaotic. My pounding head couldn't handle it, so I went back to sleep.
My eyes fluttered open and I saw my mom. Relief washed through her face.
I saw my brother walk up to me, "Are you awake for real this time?" I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion, but regretted it instantly, any move I made hurt.
"W-why do I hurt s-so bad?" My dad stepped up and put a hand lightly on mine but I quickly pulled mine away, the pain of that little touch was horrible. He muttered a sorry and I could tell he was trying not to cry. It hurt me to see my family such a mess. My mom seemed to be yelling a lot more and my father was like a water works show. My brother went from being some outgoing dating machine to not talking to anyone but us. Everyone was falling apart.
"Winter baby, the cancer has spread." My mom whispered, tears streaking her pale cheeks. It spread. The doctor had told me the treatment would cure it and I could be a normal teenager again. I had already been here for four months. It was September and the school year was going on without me.
"The doctor said that another treatment is needed" I looked at my father. I remembered the pain and sickness from the last treatment.
"How long have I been asleep?" I croaked.
"An entire week. How about next time you stay awake, stupid." I smiled weakly at my older brother. I knew that was the way he was telling me he cared.
