What is cancer? What can it do to a human life? We all tried to understand what its like to have cancer. I can understand what cancer is. I had heard about this disease ever since I was child. I'm still a child, only fourteen in middle school. Yep, you would think that because someone you knew had cancer, you now know what it feels like. They say that knowledge is power, but knowing that you have cancer can make you feel like you are the most powerless person on the planet. I know that feeling, sadly. My name Lucy, and I have cancer...

It all started when I felt really sick and I started throwing up. Mom had no idea what was going on with me. We tried other medicines, and they didn't work. So mom took me to the hospital to get me checked out. The doctor did a body scan on me, said I had leukemia in my bone marrow. The news made mom upset, but for some reason I thought that everything was going to be okay...okay...

Okay... Okay... The more I say the word, the more distant it becomes.
