Our Brave Little Firefighter Hot shot and BFFS VS Brain Tumor Fire

Chapter 10

Hot shot's time at the hospital was going to take a while. Hot shot didn't like the thought of staying for so long. But sometimes it is the best way to go. Hot shot's rest time from chemotherapy was over and it was time for another session of it. Hot shot was ready to be brave.

Hot shot watched as Kylie hooked him up to the chemotherapy this morning. Hot shot was able to do what he wanted while the chemotherapy went in. Hot shot was able to spend time with his father today. Hot shot was hoping things were going to keep going well. Hot shot and his father did a few things while in the hospital.

Hot shot sometime felt sad, scared and angry. "I get so sad, scared and angry a lot of the time," Hot shot said.

"I don't blame you for that son," Heatwave said.

"I am wondering why this had to happen to me? Why did this have to happen to me why?" Hot shot asked.

"I wish I had an answer for you son," Heatwave said.

"It just isn't fair!" Hot shot said.

"I know its not fair," Heatwave said. "Life isn't fair son," he said.

"I wish this didn't happen to me or my friends," Hot shot said.

"I know," Heatwave said.

Hot shot watched the videos from the imaginary friend society about feeling sad, feeling angry and being scared. Hot shot learned everyone feels these feelings and they are part of life. He learned not to hide or bottle up his emotions. He should talk out it and express himself. Hot shot learned you need to do something scary to feel brave. Hot shot learned he is strong. Hot shot learned there are ways to express his emotions and let his emotions out. Hot shot felt a bit better after watching the videos and talking to his father.

"I don't blame you for the way you feel at times son," Heatwave said. "Your mother and I feel many of the same things because we love you," he said. "Cancer is hard on everyone not just the patient but on their loved ones too," he said.

"I never thought of that," Hot shot said.

"Well just remember we love you and we are here for you son," Heatwave said.

"I love you too," Hot shot said. 

Hot shot was doing a few things while the chemotherapy dripped in. Hot shot felt better about sharing his feelings. Today Hot shot was painting in the play room with his friends. 

"I am painting a dalmatian," Hot shot said.

"I am painting a T-rex," Hoist said.

"I am painting an ambulance," Medix said.

"I am painting a police badge," Whirl said.

"I am painting a bulldozer," Wedge said.

"I am painting a soccer ball," Scorch said.

"I am painting a Kangaroo," Brushfire said.

"I am painting a racecar," Override said.

"Well we all have things we like," Hot shot said. Hot shot was finishing up his painting. "I feel kind of sick and tired from chemotherapy but medicine helps sometimes," he said. "I know just started chemo, but I can really feel the side effects," he said.

"I feel the side effects too," Hoist admitted. 

"Yes I feel it as well, makes it hard to eat sometimes," Medix said.

"I agree to that," Whirl said.

"It makes me feel tired and sick to my stomach too," Wedge said. "I throw up sometimes," he said.
