It was 10:30  when I woke up with a sharp pain in my stomach. Again. For the past two weeks I've been having major stomach pains. I screamed in pain. Less than a minute later my mother came running in.

"What's wrong Chloe?" She asks with a concerned look on her face.

"My stomach."

"Okay. Well we have to get this checked out. You can't miss another day of school." She tells me

"Ahhh." I scream again the pain feels unbearable.

"Okay we are going to the hospital. "

I did say anything. My mom helps me up and into the car. I didn't even care that I was in my pajamas and my hair still looks like I just rolled out of bed.

On the way to the hospital we pass my school. A few kids are sitting outside. One face I recognize the most. It was my best friend Liz. Her eyes met mine. I see her pull out her phone. Then my mom turns the corner. I was staring out the window trying to calm myself down and not think about the sharp pain in my stomach. A buzz in my pocket takes me out of my daze.

I look at my phone and its a text from Liz.

"Hey, I saw you drive by. You haven't been in school in like forever. Is everything okay?"

"I guess I'm okay. I'm not like dying or anything I just have a stomach bug. I'm going to the docters now to get it checked out." I reply.

Less then a minute later she replies. " Okay well we all really miss you here and coach says you better be feeling alright for the game Friday."

Yeah I play on the high school basketball team and we have  big game against are rivals Friday. I totally forgot that the game was this week. Have I really been out for that long. I probably lost my starting spot but theres nothing I can do about that. I'm sick. We are at the hospital when I look up.

"I'm at the docters now ill talk to you later"

"Okay good luck :) " She replies.

My mom helps me out of the car and we walk into the hospital. She walk over to a desk and tells the secratey that I was in a lot of pain in my stomach. twenty minutes later I get called back into a room. My mom and I are sitting in there for ten minutes before a docter comes in.

"Hello my name is Dr. James and I will be taking care of you today. So I have here a paper that says you're in a lot of pain" He tells us.

"Yeah that's right." I say

"Well where are you in pain"

"In my stomach."

'Can you point to where in you stomach."

"Yeah." I point to the part of my stomach that has been hurting.

"Hmmm. How long have you been experiencing this pain?" He asks

"Like two weeks."

"Okay. Well how about we run some tests to see what's causing you all this pain." He says with  a reassuring smile on his face.

Dr. James takes me to a room where they take some x-rays of my stomach.

"So I hear you play ball." He asks me.

"Yeah. I was the starting point guard then... this happened." I tell him.

"Well how about after you get better we play a little one-on-one?"

"Haha sure if you're ready to lose." I say confidently.

"What ever you say Chloe."

Something on the monitor must have caught his eye cause his facial expression changed entirely.

"What did my insides scare you or something?" I ask him.

" No, no just something's a little weird. I'm going to get someone else to look over these just to make sure."

"Okay."

An hour later Dr. James comes back into the room  my mom and I were in.

"Well I have the test results." He says

"What are they." My mother says basically jumping out of her chair.

Dr. James facial expression goes blank.

"Well,  Chloe has umm."

"Say it." My mom screams at him.

"Chloe has stage 3 lung cancer." He says

"What so  am I going to die. " I start to cry. I'm only 16. There's so much I still want to do. I still haven't had my first kiss yet or anything. The only time I left the state was when I had a basketball tournament.

"How does she have lung cancer if she had pain in her stomach?" My mom asks hysterically crying.

"It's rare but it does happen." He tells us.

" I will give you some pain killers so that the pain will stop and you can go be with your friends but tommrow I would like to talk to your mother about treatment for you."

"Okay." I say.
