I couldn't believe my mom hadn't told me about this. She always told me everything. I was scared and didn't know what to do but most of all I was shocked. I locked myself in my room as I reread the paper again. It said that she was diagnosed with lung cancer. All this time I was being an annoying brat that kept whining. I was being selfish about going to the trip. I couldn't take it anymore. I ripped the paper into a thousand pieces and started to cry in my bed. I didn't know what to do. My mom was dying and I couldn't do anything. This whole month has been the worst. I don't think it can get any worse. Then all of a sudden I was mad at myself. Crying wouldn't help my mom. I had to pull it together. After all I'm not a person who just stands there and does nothing during a situation.
