Dear journal, Today's date is one that I will never forget. Two years ago today, I was diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer. One of the reasons that I remember it so well, because the diagnosis occurred the day before my twin brother, Kyle's, and my fifteenth birthday. When I told Kyle's and my mutual best friend, Brett Ford, Kyle's girlfriend, Brett's fraternal triplet sisters, and my best friends, Kelly, Courtney, and Sara, they were beyond devastated. To add on to the devastation, I told them that I would have to spend the summer at The Long Cancer Center in Houston, Texas. As it turned out one summer turned into one year. Due to how aggressive that my cancer had become, and all of the surgeries, chemo, and radiation treatments that I needed, I was enrolled into the cancer center that my parents owned, The Long Cancer Center. The bright side of being in the hospital for that long of a time was that I was able to keep up with my school work, successfully complete ALL of my AP English courses that I would ever need to take in high school, spend time reading my bible and praying, and work on writing lyrics. On June 24th, 2016, I was released from the hospital and placed into Long Rehabili- tation Facility, which is the other facility that my parents owned. After an entire year of residing at LRF, I am finally returning home tomorrow to Denver, Colorado. My Mom is flying in tonight. In addition to returning home, I am also excited about seeing my family and my best friends. The last time I saw my parents was last month. However, I saw my family and the Fords together was in March. The Fords and my family had come to visit me during Spring Break. I have truly missed everyone deeply and am looking forward to finally being with them again. I am especially looking forward to seeing Brett. I honestly that my crush on him grew stronger during my stay at the hospital. On a different note, what makes the home-coming even more special is that it is going to be a surprise. As far as Kyle knows, Mom is going out on an overnight business trip to Denver. Won't Kyle be surprised when he learns that that is not what it is, at all?
