***RATED PG*** "Mom! You can't do this to him! He doesn't deserve to die! He's only 15!" I hear Lilly say from behind the door. "We can't save him! The doctors said he only has 2 months to live and we can't afford the treatment. It has spread to his bones. It's absolutely hopeless!" I hear Mom say and start crying. "You can't just give up! If we can't get enough money then.... Then I'll make it the best 2 months he's ever lived," Lilly says, I can hear her voice start to tremble. "Honey, the doctors said the treatment would be hopeless," Mom says. I open the door and walk into the kitchen. "Lilly, listen to mom. She and the doctors are right, I'm hopeless. So don't bother even trying. My life isn't worth saving," I say. "Luke. I promise we'll do whatever we can to help," Lilly says, then walks over to me and hugs me.
