I woke up and Shannon was standing over me. She looked like she was afraid. She said that I had been crying and yelling " Mom don't leave me!" I didn't want to talk about it but her being a therapist she thought it was best to let it out.

So there we sat in the living-room area of the apartment. Talking. Hugging. And more talking. 

By the time that was done she realized how many problems I really had. I could tell by the look she gave me when she said "Okay well that was a nice chat. So what do you feel like for breakfast?" I told her I wasn't hungry she said " Okay are you good to go to school today?" I said yes and that i was going to go get ready.

As I walked into the school everyone was walking around with each other. I saw a sign that said "Main Office" I walked into the door slowly. Then the women at the front desk she looked up and said " May I help you?" I quietly said " Yes I'm supposed to meet with the principal. Its my first day." She pointed me to the hallway and said look for a Mrs. Hallender.

I found a door that said Mrs. Hallender I knocked. The door opened slowly and she said "Come in." I walked through the door and there she was sitting behind the desk. She has long blonde hair and she was wearing a grey pant suit. She looked up and smiled she said "you must be Cecelia Hovis." 

We talked about how stuff would work at Westridge Acadamy. She gave me a paper and told me to write down everything medical. The only thing I could think to write was.....

Cancer.

I gave her the paper back and she looked up at me and said " Oh...I guess that will change everything we had set up for you." I looked up at her and she glanced quickly back down at her desk and continued " With your condition we can't allow you to be here at the risk of you getting sicker."

I gave her back her pen and walked out of the school. I turned around before I walked out of view and said "really."
