APPEARANCE Neyland is a very striking redhead who stands at the height of five feet, seven inches. She's taller than some of the gang, even without some stupid heels on. She has deep brown eyes that are framed with long eyelashes, and freckles that span over every inch of her body. Her red hair goes all the way down to where her ribcage stops, and is naturally pin straight. However, Neyland does like to get her mother or nurse to put curlers in her hair at night so her hair could be curly in the morning. She is very pale as well, seeing as she is sick, as well as just genetics. She has thin lips that she normally only uses chapstick to cover. Her lips are usually chapped, mostly because she picks at them often when she's nervous about more treatment. Neyland never really uses makeup besides mascara on days when she gets visitors , and will only use more makeup sparsely on big occasions. She has shortened nails that she normally paints a soft white, seeing as it fits every outfit she has. The only scar she has goes from the middle of her spinal cord all the way under her left arm from a partial lung removal surgery. She is part of the 7% of those diagnosed with lung cancer that are under the age of 25.
