Bradley showed up at my house this morning.
It turns out they're taking Lawrence to a hospital that specializes in his type of cancer.
Going there is his only chance.
He's getting moved tomorrow,
so Bradley asked me if I wanted to go visit him today.
I said okay.
Lawrence was as funny and class-clownish as ever.
His parents smiled fake smiles
They're scared of losing him.
I put on a brave face.
But the whole situation killed me.
I wrote a letter to his parents.
Mr.&Mrs. Gillins,
Will you please try and make it to my funeral? It will be near the end of December of this year.
R.S.V.P. to my mother.
Goodbye,
Caitlyn
P.S. I know you probably won't want to come if Lawrence dies. I know you'll probably hate me for being healthy and killing myself when your son who deserves to live had no choice but to die. So if you hate me, I'm okay with that. I hate myself too.
