It's been one week since I got Macy. She's such great company. I have no friends. I don't go to school and besides, I have cancer. If I met girls my age, they'd be too scared by my bald head to even talk to me.
Yes. You read right. Im bald now. Well, not completely. I went to the doctor a couple days ago and he started me on another dose of chemotherapy. I'm starting to lose hair. For the first time in my life. It's horrible. When my mom takes me somewhere, I get tons of looks. I'm starting to get used to it, but it's still annoying.
Well, right now, I'm at the dog park with Macy and mom. I used to be so in shape before the whole cancer thing. Now I can barely run.
I sit on the bench, and catch my breath, as mom plays fetch with Macy.
She comes over to the bench.
"Hey honey, wanna have a go?" She asks
"No, I'm okay," I respond, breathing heavily
"Are you sure, it'll help to get up for a while."
I hesitate. "Fine, but only for a couple minutes." I get up and grab the ball. Macy stares at me as if I were a piece of bacon. Im actually enjoying myself. Then all of a sudden, a dog runs by, and Macy begins to run after it. "MACY! Come back!" I scream. I turn to look at mom, asking her to help, but she's really far away now. Wow. I didn't realize we went so far. I run after Macy. She's so fast. Like, really fast. "Macy!" I yell again. "Come on g.." I start to get really dizzy. The ground is suddenly spinning. The last thing I remember is collapsing on the ground. The sound of sirens fill my ears. Mom is beside me now. She's very dark. Wait. My whole field of vision is dark. Now I realize why. Mom told me not to run with my condition. This is why. Thanks mom.
The nurses carry me into the ambulance as my mom starts to cry... my vision fades. I should just let go. Right now. It's my time. It's ok Tammy, just let go, I tell myself. So I do.
