Letters to a Rockstar

Ashley's letter/stronger treatment

"Your like a freak on a leash, you wanna see the light. So do I."

I sang along to Korn as it played from inside. I was seated on the front wrap around porch and watched people stop and take pictures and walked on. A few smiled and waived up at me. I returned the favor. I heard the music get turned down. I looked down at what I had on and smiled:

"Chelsea?" My mom said as she walked out and sat down with me.

I turned to look at her and she smiled sadly. "I just got off the phone with your doct

or back at home. She saw your bloodwork and she is going to start on stronger treatments here tomorrow. Your levels are dropping and she wants to keep them as steady and balanced as possible." She said as tears rolled down my face.

I nodded and she pulled me in as I hugged her and cried.

"I know baby. I am so sorry. This is nothing you did wrong. This is just that disease. Most people survive this. Some are not so lucky. You are one of the unlucky ones sweetheart. Your doctor also said that as well. I will bring you and you can ask Sebastian to see if he wants to go with you this time? Since Remington went last time and Emerson the time before that." She said as I wiped my eyes.

I sat up and nodded as she kissed my head. "I made you your favorite for dinner. Hamburger pie and home-made cream puffs." She said as I smiled. "OH! You got a letter back from Ashley. By the looks of this one, he has enclosed a surprise." She said as I smiled and laid back against her shoulder. " I don't feel good right now. I will read it later." I said softly and she nodded. She wrapped her arm around me. I curled into her warm body and shivered a bit.

It was warm and humid. But I was a bit chilled. I was told this is from my strong treatments. And it would balance back out once I got used to them. She wrapped a Nightmare before Christmas no sew blanket around me and I fell asleep in her arms listening to birds and waves and people talking about stuff.

I finished my dinner with my family and I helped clean up a bit. I went and grabbed my letter and headed up to my room.

Molly followed me upstairs and laid down next to me in my bed. She laid her big head on my lap and sighed a big sigh.

I opened the letter and I saw a bracelet inside.

I pulled it out and gasped with shock.

I put it on my wrist and pulled out the lengthy letter. Molly looked at me as I got comfortable. She laid against me and I unfolded the letter.

A few pictures dropped out and I smiled widely.

Dear Chelsea,

I dozed off against my dog before I could read any further then those two words.
