"I, Vivian Mia Lynch, will not receive any form of treat for cancer." I said in fount of my family. My mother sat still for a moment taking what I had said in and letting it proses. My twin brother and my older sister looked down at the floor. Father looked into my eyes. I nodded my head.
"If this is truly what you want the I will support you" my father said as he stood form the couch. Slowly walking toward me he engulfed me in a hug. I have always been a daddy's girl.

" I also want to go to a new school where people don't know what I have" I took a deep breath into my lungs before continuing. " I don't want their pity I want their friend ship. I also want to move out and travel be for I have to leave" and with that I left the room. They know what I mean by ' leavening'

I was siting on my bed just staring up at the empty sealing. A knock on the door brought me out of thought. James, my twin brother, walked in and took a seat at my desk.

" your really going to do this" James asked me. Gesturing to the packed boxed that lined one wall of my now empty room.

" yes. Yes I am. All my life I have lived in a shell. I want something different for once in my life" I sigh " even if you and mom don't agree with my chose their is no cure and I'm not going to spend the last two years off my life sick form chemo."

James looked heart broken. Tears welled up in his eyes. One slip over the edge slowly making its way down his face. " I'm just not really to lose you" I stood up form my bed I rapped my armed around his neck

" your never going to lose me" I pointed to his heart " I will always be right here" Then slowly we pulled a part and stared loading boxes in to the truck.

As we said our good byes to Mom and dad tears slide down their face.

" I am going to miss you but I will be back for the summer and for winter break" Lindsay, my older sister, and I loaded the last box and stared the 5 hour drive to my new house in LA.

And so my story stared.
