"Dad, im fine. I can get out of the car myself you know!" I hate the way he always mollycoddles me. I mean come on, I am 18 for gods sake.

"You are just out of the hospital, I am sorry if I want to give you a hand!" he answers.

"I know and I am greatful but atleast let me do something for myself so that I dont feel completely useless?" I plead.

"Fine, I will get your bags," he gives in and I am surprised by this.

My name is Annie, and this is my life. Hospital appointments, tests, argueing with my father and more tests. I bet you wish you were me right now. NOT.

About two years ago I was diagnosed with cancer. It started with me becoming really tired and having mood swings, which you know, I kinda thought it must be that time of the month but it didnt come. I then started having really bad headaches and my mother was a nurse at the time so she decided to go and get me checked out.  From that day I always had a feeling that she knew, she knew I was dieing.

The night before my appointment I took a seizure. I was rushed into hospital and connected to all these machines, I find it hard to remember alot of things but this I remember. My parents thought I was out cooled but I could hear them, I could hear them loud and clear. 'I cant lose my daughter,' my father sobbed. 'she is going to die isnt she, my baby girl is going to die,' my mother was shouting hysterically. But I didn't die, I am still here. So basically I had loads of scans and tests and the doctors found a tumor on my brain... and it was cancerous. At first I didnt believe them. I thought this only happened in t.v shows and I never imagined that it would happen to me! Not me, I had the perfect family, the perfect house, the perfect friends and the perfect boyfriend. Well now the boyfriend is out the window. I am forever alone I dont need no man, he found having a girlfriend with cancer too much so he dumped me... yea HE thought it was too hard, what a dick right?

I had endless amounts of chemotherapy but it didnt get rid of it so I had brain surgery. The doctors removed alot of the tumor and now I am cancer free! Well for now...

I still have to go for a check up now and then, just to make sure everything is going well. I found it hard after the surgery because of moodswings and memory and all that jazz, I still do and I am now on tablets for my seizures which I am prone to, oh how I love life...

Now I live with my dad. You may ask were my mother is? Well, she died last year... in a car accident. Which was added to my list of 'reasons why I hate life' which is about two pages long. Its not that I am ungreatful that I am still here but we are all going to die at some point, right? I look up to my father so much, he has been through alot and still manages a smile, I know I couldn't do that after the two years he has had.

As I said I have amazing friends... well when it comes down to actually being a good friend and being there for me they were pretty suckish. I think they thought they could catch it off me or something. Duhh you cant catch a brain tumor, even I know that! So I am motherless, forever alone and friendless but its ok, atleast I am tumorless. That is always good I guess.
