My best friend is basically my sister. Our families are very close. Our parents are best friends, my sister and her sister are the same age and are best friends, and of course we are the same age and are best friends as well. My best friend, Morgan, was diagnosed with cancer June 11, 2008. I've been their with her since day one.
I'm on vacation with my family and hers as well. The other night her mom let me in on a big secret that her dad and sister doesn't even know. Morgan's cancer was said to be benign and nonaggressive, but after her latest surgery which led us to believe that it was removed, benign, and slow growing even if they had missed a part of the tumor, turns out they were lying to us. They have been keeping a secret that the cancer is malignant and very aggressive. They removed as much as they could visibly see but it was likely that it would grow back and attack. The next time she gets sick will be the last. They gave her 2-5 years. Keep in mind, we are only 17.
I want to write a book that will tell everyone the story of the diagnoses, and the struggles and good times we've faced up until this point and then every time we go something fun, or something happens worth writing about I can start it out like a letter to her.
I would like to send out a group message through email allowing you to critic it instead of posting it on here. I was also wondering if any of you had some tips on how to organize my story to where it's easier to write or if you think it would be cooler to write in "flashbacks" instead of just telling the story in chronological order. Whatever inputs you have would be super appreciated. If you would be so helpful as to either post your emails or send them through a message that would be great! thank you!
