"You have a muscle condition that will cause your body to paralyse fully. In a few years you will not be able to walk or even move. I am so so sorry Mr. Xavier. We can give you painkillers, but we cannot stop it from moving forward."
My doctor looked at me with empty eyes. And so did I. I couldn't speak, neither react. I was just shocked. I came here to get help but that didn't work out like I thought it would. I'll die so sad and ashamed. I told my sister raven that I'll do something with my life and now I'll die even sadder than she did.

"Thank you Mr. Stryker. You'll hear from me" I said to him after a few minutes of silence.
"If you need anything just call my assistant. I wish you the very best." He shook my hand and I walked out of his practice with the constant pain in my legs and my bag. The numbness in my legs started a few months ago and it got worse since then. It wasn't the biggest pain but my legs got weaker every day.

I tried to walk home that day because I still could. Not even the pain could have stopped me. I walked and walked and walked and then I fell. I fell on the ground, hit my head on something hard and stared crying in the middle of the big park I walked through. Everything started blurring and I couldn't hear anything. The only thing I saw was a silhouette of another person who tried to help me but my mind couldn't react.
