Making it Through (Sequel to OLT and FFY)

Chapter 13

Harry has held my hand through everything. Especially these last few months. He hasn't left my side for more than a moment, and he was overjoyed when the doctor told him I was recovering and the cancer was slowly disappearing, but I said slowly. The doctor had told me quietly that it was still a toe to toe battle to see who would go first, me or the cancer. He said 90% chance it would be me.

I sat on the floor playing cars with the boys while Harry played barbies with the girls. We switched off every other day.

I got that feeling where I knew I was going to down hill in health department. I saw the room spinning and could barely breathe. Then everything went black.

"Harry. I was hoping I wouldn't have to tell you this, but Kellie probably won't make it through this round of cancer." My doctor said

"What do you mean!?" Harry asked worriedly

"Her body might not be strong enough. She went through cancer once, plus any stress, and having five children. Her body isn't strong enough in anyway to take another beating from cancer."

"There must be something we can do."

"In the fields of medical science we have right now,there isn't anything. Your best hope is to beg and pray that she can fight through this." I slowly opened my eyes and saw the doctor leaving while Harry held his head in his huge hands.

"Harry." I croaked and his head shot up revealing red puffy eyes with tear tracks. he handed me a glass of pop and I gladly drank it. I set it down and took one of his hands in mine and kissed his knuckles.

"Kellie, they are positive you won't make it." Harry cried

"Babe who am I?" I asked him

"Kellie Louise Styles why?"

"You know as well as anyone that I'm a fighter." I stated

"But-"

"But what? I've defied their thoughts and words before. I'll do it again Harry. I'm positive." He smiled and kissed me making me feel all the little shocks and things like that. After he pulled away he sat in bed next to me while I cuddled into his side. I waited and finally knew he drifted to sleep. I looked up and kissed the bottom of his jaw before lying my head over his caring heart and listening to the steady beats. Like a lullaby it put me to sleep.

...Harry's POV...

When I woke up about three hours later I saw Kellie was asleep listening to my heart beat. She loved to do that for some odd reason.

I don't think she understands just how much I would break if she left me and the kids behind. It would be like when she was kidnapped both times only times 1,000,000. We have so many pictures of all seven of us on the walls, Roxy would always be waiting at the door reminding me that Kellie wouldn't come through the door, toss her stufff on the bench, and drop herself on the couch. Aaron looks so much like her it would hurt to be around her. Same with the other four. They all look so much like both of us, but if i lose Kellie I will only see her in them.

Then everything like her paintings, her things. and of course our sheets and her pillows and blankets that are stained with her strawberry perfume and honey shampoo smell. It would hurt so bad to be in the house too. It's her dream house, the one I got just for her to celebrate her surviving.

"Harry stop crying, I'll get through it." Kellie murmured in her sleep wiping the tears on my cheeks that had started without my knowing.

"I know you will love. You're my fighter." I said wiping my eyes and kissing her lips lightly

I just hope my fighter can take on this dark shadow that's covered our happy lives once again.
