Kelly:
Today, I have to go to chemotherapy. If you didn't know already, I have leukemia— it's a blood cancer pretty much. No one knows about my condition besides my dad and Tyrone. They both were with me the day I was diagnosed, I was 17 and I'm almost 19 now.
"Kelly, time to go!" My dad yells and I walk down the stairs with my over night bag and my comfortable clothes. "Where are you guys going?" Isla asks coming down stairs. "I'm going to the store to get my medicine for my asthma" she nods and hugs me tightly. She skips off and my dad pats my shoulder "where ya guys going, can I come?" Jack says coming down "no" I bluntly say "what, why?" I look at my dad and he shrugs "it's my lady month shopping" his eyes widen and darts back upstairs "you smart little girl" my dad whispers and I laugh.
We walk out and make our way to the hospital.
We walk in and I say hi to my nurse, Sam
"Hey Sammy" she hugs me tightly and leads me to my room for the day and night. They hook me up to the machines and start my medicine "I hate this" I say to my dad and he rubs my arm "I know Kell" he kisses my forehead and I rest my eyes for a second.
"Get some rest honey"
Is the last thing I hear before I doze off.

I wake up and I feel sick. I walk to the bathroom and throw up, its a side effect from the chemo, fun right? I walk out and rub my eyes and I see my dad sleeping in the chair. "8:00 am" I read the clock on the wall. I press my nurse button and Sam walks into the room "hey girl" I say and she responds back "throw up?" I nod and she rubs my head "it sucks" she nods in sympathy and takes out all my needles and other medical things. " you are ready to go" my dad says waking up. I nod and we walk out
I practically live there.

We get home and I see Kristen and her kids on the couch "Hey! Where were you guys. You've been gone since last night" my dad didn't tell her, thank gosh. He knows I don't like anyone knowing, because I don't want pitty. "We had a father daughter hang out" she nods and smiles "Oh! Kids Kristin and I forgot to tell you that Jacks band will be visiting" the three girls cheer and I just stand there
Band?
