We got to the doctors and got called in quicker than we thought. I sat down on a chair next to Andy. I didn't want to be on a table and I wanted andy to hold me. They took my vitals and the doctor came in a little after and sat down across from us and smiled weakly.
"Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln I'm Dr. Hall." He said and shook both of our hands and I nodded.
"Jasmine-" he paused and looked at paperwork of mine and back up at me.
"As you know and we're informed that your tests came back positive and you have stomach cancer." He said and I bit my cheek and nodded. Andy grabbed my hand and rubbed the top of it and the doctor looked at my paperwork again.
"It's not easy talking about these things and it's not easy being told either and I understand. Jasmine you're in stage 3 now, which is not the best stage but I want to give you your choices on treatments." He said.
"Stage 3?" I asked.
"Hold on." Andy said.
"She's in stage 3 and were just now finding out? What were the signs? I don't understand." He said.
"Sometimes you don't know until something sets it off and it happens all at once." The doctor said.
"Is she going to live?!" Andy asked and the doctor looked at me.
"There's always a chance. It's a hard cancer to beat on top of the stage you're in. With treatment it helps and isolates it. You would be doing chemotherapy and radiation-"
"You're saying I'm dying but there's still a chance I could beat it?" I asked.
"From how bad it is-" he paused and nodded.
"You have 9 months to a year, but there is still a chance to beat it. It can happen." He said and my eyes softened and Andy shook his head.
"No. She has years. She's strong. She can fight this-" he paused and he looked over at me.
"You can fight it." He said with tears in his eyes and I started crying. He held me and I buried my face into his chest as I cried.
"You can beat it." He said rubbing my arm and I was crying so hard I could barely breathe. It didn't feel real. I felt like I was in a bad dream and I couldn't wake up.
