I spend my days taking care of my mother as she has been sick for months. Althought, she's not getting any better. I couldn't do anything else but to take care of her. I live at a small village in a small house and I am not a rich girl. I have brought her to the hospital and as doctors told me that they needed to operate her. The cancer is spreading.
I knew right away that operations costs alot and my family couldn't afford such things. We sometimes wouldn't even have enough food, not that dad would work for it. My step dad used to be a great father before his friends decided to drag him along to the wrong path. He comes home late drunk everyday. Sometimes he would hurt me if I said I didn't have money to give him. For gambling, I figured.
One day, mom got very sick. She was pale, weak, I didn't know what to do. I've tried giving medicines to her but nothing seems to work. So I decided to say yes to the job offer dad gave me. "You could help to get money for us", as he would say.
That night, I told mom my goodbyes and dad straight away drove me to the city. Where buildings were higher, houses were bigger, everyone was richer. As we were passing by people, I wondered if they ever get problems like us. But I think that's just stupid. They have money, they could just use it to cure sicknesses.
