“I didn’t ask to get sick when I was a toddler. But I did. I didn’t ask to spend almost everyday in a hospital room for thirteen years being poked and prodded with needles and tests. But I did. I didn’t ask to be left there by my parents, wondering if I would ever be allowed to leave, wondering if my friends and I would live to see the next day. But I did. And when I got thrown from the only world I’ve ever known, I didn’t ask to have my heart shattered by Jake Charles. But I did.”
Samantha Lowell was diagnosed with leukemia at the young age of 3. Her life was spent mostly in a world of doctors, needles, sickness, and death. At age 16 she is finally cured- and thrown into the ‘real world’. Life was okay, adjusting was hard, but it was the everyday attitude of people that caught her off guard. High school was a world away from what she had imagined. In her mind high school had been what she had seen in movies, new kid= loser, then a problem with the popular kid(s), revenge, then at the end girl gets the super hot popular kid and lives happily ever-after.
Instead she got a world of continuous lies, heart break, and deceit. She survived genetic death sentence. The hard part will be surviving the cure.
