"I swear Harry, he came onto me!"

"Let's just get out of here, alright."

Let's just state the obvious, I didn't exactly like her. I know that's cruel but after watching that video. My stomach was churning at the idea of him staying with her.

I guess I'm the reason for that though. I'm the one who left. But I thought I was going to be gone, permanently. That's not exactly what the doctors said.

~Flashback~

I walked into my doctors office for just a quick physical. I've been losing weight like crazy and have had an constant fever. The really weird thing was, my neck and armpits were swelling up.

"How are you feeling Carter? Anything specific?" Dr. Adam's kindly asked me.

I told her all the odd symptoms I was feeling and she wanted to take some tests.

The next day, she called me back in to discuss the results.

"Take a seat."

"What did the test say?"

"Hun, it looks like you have severely progressed, Hodgkin lymphoma."

"Well what do I do? Is there like a surgery or medicine I can take for it to be cured?" I rambled freaking out on the inside.

I haven't heard of this disease at all and needless to say, I was scared.

"We can try, chemotherapy,radiation therapy or both. But Hun, it doesn't look too good."

"What does that mean? Am I going to die? What am I suppose to tell Harry?" I nervously belted out.

"The last case that I saw of this severe and progressed Hodgkin lymphoma, they had maybe a year.."

And with that last word I blacked out. terrified of what was to come.
