Avery's Thoughts

Story
Avery's POV

This was one of the scariest moments of my life. I have cancer. I was watching a preview of a new show coming up. Chasing Life. It looks really good but it will remind me that I am going through the same thing. I got to fight back.

I got through the first stage of chemotherapy. Next step is radiation therapy whatever that is. I miss Karl. We still have told my family yet, but we have to sooner or it may be too late. I still have my whole life ahead of me. Why was I chosen to have cancer? Well, I refuse to give up!

"Avery?" Dr. Smith came in.

"Yeah?"

"It's okay for you to go home now, we have radiation therapy tomorrow at 10."

"Okay. What is radiation therapy?"

"It depends on the extent of your leukemia. Radiation can be used to help kill your remaining cancer cells or to wipe out your bone marrow before a stem cell transplant. Radiation is also sometimes used as a palliative treatment. It may be used to shrink an enlarged spleen or lymph node. It will cause some discomfort."

"Okay thanks."

I pulled my phone out and sent a text to Karl.

Hey Karl.

Hey babe.

I'm out can you come and take me home?

Yeah, give me ten minutes. ;)

Okay.

What to do? I got a while before Karl comes. I do have to tell my parents, Tyler, Chloe, and Stan. Wait is that Chloe?

"Avery?"

"Chloe, What are you doing here?"

"Don't tell mom or dad, but remember my boyfriend Michael."

"Oh, Chloe. You're not."

"I am. What are you doing here?"

"I have leukemia."

"Oh Avery. I am so sorry. My favorite sister has cancer."

"I am your only sister."

"I'll rephrase that. Favorite Sibling."

"Aww thanks Chloe. That made my day."

"You're welcome."

"Well, I got to go Karl is pulling up. Chloe please don't tell anyone about me having cancer. I want to be the one."

"Okay. You better say something before it's too late."

"Okay. Love you Chloe bye."

A/N Out for summer and that means more chapters. :D yay!

I got the radiation therapy information from wikihow.

Also I cannot wait for Abc Family's new show Chasing Life.

I own nothing
