My Life Changed (Book1)

Chapter 1-Mi Padres Death

I am Hayleigh McKendricks i am 6 years old. My best friend is Isabelle Evans we do everything together just the other day we were swimming in my home pool when one of Isabelle's brothers pulled her under nearly drowning her before letting her go. I grew up in the city of Lanzarote Spain, yes me and my family are spanish but we have been taught english and I dont understand why but I prefer English. I live with My Madre(Mum), My Padre(Dad), My 2 Hermanos(Brothers) and My Hermana(Sister). One day when i was 5, My Padre started to look iller and paler than usual every day I saw him it was like he was becoming more and more like a ghost figure, the pale skin, the loss of energy and lets not forget the loss of hair. My Madre being her worrying self took him and myself to the hospital where he was admitted with Leukimia. He was too far along with the Leukimia that there was no hope in saving him. He was kept in the hospital for about another 3 months before one day i went to visit him, i took flowers and also a drawing i had done of him and i in the car but when i got to the hospital and to his room i saw a sight i could never forget My Padre lying pale faced, pale lips, creased forehead and eyes closed. He was dead.

Since My Padres death My Madre has never been the same she wont come outside and enjoy the sun anymore she doesnt even come swimming with me and belle now.
