"Please help me I've been having this pain in my abdomen for about a month now. I have been nauseated, and my bowels have been tar like. Also when I do vomit it looks like coffee grains," Stacy told the doctor. He was nodding his head. "I came in last month and they just told me it was the flu, but now it just got worse." Stacy was just tired of feeling like this all the time. She first thought it was the flu, and then she thought she was pregnant, so she took a pregnancy test and it came back negative.

"Stacy, the coffee like vomit is a good sign of blood, I want to do some blood work and some x-rays on your abdomen," Dr. Winter told me. "The tar like stool is also a sign of blood in the stool." He started to worry her as he was writing Stacy the order for the lab work.

"What do you think it is?" she asked becoming a little frantic.

"A GI bleed is my first guess, but you lost 15 pounds within a month so I want to do test just to make sure," he told her and gave her the paper. "Now when you are done come back here and I will read the test. " Stacy nodded her head as she was nervous as hell now. She went and got her blood drawn and they took three vials of blood for CBC. Then she had to urinate in a cup for a complete urinalysis. Next she went into x-ray and she had to take her Belly button ring out and take her shirt off and they got her set up for the x-ray. As soon as Stacy laid down she started to feel nauseated. She closed her eyes.

"Are you okay?" the x-ray technician asked.

"I think I'm going to be sick," Stacy said sitting up hold her stomach. The technician grabbed an emesis basin and in the nick of time. As soon as she gave it to Stacy, everything in her stomach emptied into the basin. It was still coffee like colored which alerted the tech.

"I'm going to take this to lab," She told Stacy when she was done empting her stomach. The Tech left the room for a few minutes and then came back and had a wash cloth and had her lay down and put it on her head. I'm going to take an x ray of you laying on your stomach, then on your sides, and then one laying on your belly if possible."

"Okay," Stacy said now sounding miserable. They got the x-rays done and then Stacy went back to the room. Just then her phone went off. She looked and it was from her loving boyfriend Matt.

-Anything yet?- Matt

-Running test Dr. Winter thinks it's a GI bleed-Stacy

-Stace you are strong let me know as soon as you know something-Matt

-I will I love you Matthew Aaron-Stacy

-I love you to Stacy Annette-Matt

Just then the doctor came in and I put my phone away and I looked up at him and he did not have a good look on his face. He sat down and pulled his chair up to me.

"Stacy, I don't have very good news for you," he said and I looked at him.

"Yes?" Stacy asked now worried.

"You have Gastric Cancer, and it is processed a lot. We need to have surgery like today to try to catch it," he told her and Stacy heart stopped. The tears started running down her cheek.

"Am I going to die?" is the first thing that comes to mind.

"I can't say yes, and I can't say no, but I want to prep you for surgery right away. You will be in the hospital for at least a week for observations, so I will write you a note for school," he told her.

"Don't say why just say I'm hospitalized. I don't want people to know, what is going on. Not even my parents. Just is just how I wanted to spend my senior year," she stated as she whipped her eyes. She was 18 and can make her own medical choices. Dr. Winter nodded his head and then left the room. Just then a person came in with a wheel chair.

"Okay Miss Hale, I'm Kristin, I'm going to be the nurse to get you set up. Can I have you sit here and I'll help you get ready," she said and Stacy nodded her head and took a deep breath.

"Can I make some calls before?" Stace asked and Abby nodded her head.

"After I get you prepped," Kristin stated and Stacy was whipping her eyes. They got her into the operating room and had her change into a gown and Abby hooked her up to IV's . "Your surgery will be at 7:30pm so go ahead and make some calls. If you need anything let me know," Abby said and left the room. Stacy grabbed my Cell phone and decided to call my parents first.

"Hey Stace where are you?" her mom answered the phone.

"Getting prepped for emergency surgery at 7:30," She told her. The line went quiet and Stacy could hear her mom talk to her dad.

"Surgery for what?" her mom asked as she could hear shuffling around in the back ground.

"I have a GI bleed they need to repair it," Stacy said not wanting her parents to worry. She figured that it would be easier to tell them that then she has cancer.

"We are on our way honey, love you," she said and hung up. She then dialed Matt's number to let him know what is up. She and Matt have been dating for 2 years and very much in love. They talk about getting married when she graduates high school. He is a freshman in college and they see each other every weekend.

"Hey Baby what did you find out?" He asked.

"I'm getting prepped for emergency surgery," she said and the tears started rolling down her face. This is just not sinking in that she has cancer.

"For what?" he asked.

"GI bleed, is there anyway you can come, if something happens during surgery I want to at least tell you I love you to your face," she told her and tears rolled down her face faster. "I need a hug," she finally just started crying.

"I'm on the road now, I will do anything for you babe, I'll be there in 30 minutes, when is your surgery?" he asked.

"7:30," sue told him and looked at the clock and it is 4.

"I'll be there on time, stay strong Stace, I love you," he said.

"I love you too, please hurry," she said as her voice cracked from her crying.

"I will be strong," he said as she could hear the worry in his voice. Now there she was laying in the hospital bed alone. She turned on the TV and found on Spike that Marine 2 was on which was one of her all-time favorite movies. It made her smile and forget what was all going on for a second. Just then Kristin came back in and looked up on the TV and she smiled.

"Like that movie?" she asked.

"Love that movie. It just proves what true love is. People will do anything for the people they love," Stacy stated which made Kristen smile.

"Yeah," Kristen smiled. "I got to get your vitals and give you some medication how are you feeling?"

"Nauseated, scared of what the outcome would be. I want to make my senior prom in 2 months, but what if the surgery doesn't work and I die tomorrow I won't make it. I already have a beautiful dress," Stacy complained to Kristen and Kristin kind of frowned.

"I don't think you will die tomorrow, but I can't say that for sure. I will pray for you that you will be able to go to your senior prom," Kristen stated and Stacy smiled and whipped her eyes. Just then her parents came in and they looked worried.

"Stacy how are you feeling?" her mom asked.

"Scared," she stated. "But I think I'm good care where they will be able to help me." Honestly she didn't know if the doctors could help her but she is someone that she doesn't want people to worry about her. She tries to make horrible situations into better ones. Kristen left the room and her parents sat by her. Stacy went and grabbed her phone and then went on this website where she likes to blog sometimes. She needed to vent but didn't want anyone she knew to know about this.

I'm eighteen years old and a senior in high school. I just found out I had stomach cancer. I don't want to tell my family, or my friends so they don't have to worry. To be honest I'm scared for my life, it sounds very serious. I'm going through surgery in a couple of hours and they think I have a GI bleed they need to fix. I just need to let it out that this is going on with me. I don't want any pitty commits, but I do fear I'm going to die.

Right after she sent it Matt came in and he went up to her and gave her a hug and she started crying on his shoulder and he sat down on her bed. He looked at all the monitors and she looked up and seen her blood pressure was lower than normal which worried her but she didn't want them to know.

"Mr. and Mrs. Hale can I have a minute with Stace please?" Matt asked and my parents nodded and left the room. "Stacy what are you not telling me. Your crying and that is not you what is going on?"

"I'm just scared, the GI bleed is bad and they are lucky they caught…" Stacy started and then grabbed the basin and started throwing up. Matt started rubbing her back. She put the basin back on the table and she just grabbed her stomach and Matt laid down in the bed and wrapped his arms around her and she put her head on his chest and started crying. He started rubbing her back.

"What are you not telling me?"

"Nothing," Stacy said and her parents walked back in and smiled when they saw Matt laying with her as she was laying on his chest. Her parents love Matt and would be proud for him to be there future son-in-law.

"Thank you for coming down Matt," her mom stated.

"I would do anything for her," he said and that made her smile. She looked at the clock and it was 7pm and she turned on WWE RAW and Matt just shook his head. "You and your WWE boys."

"I would love to meet Randy or The Miz one day," she said. Just then the nurse and the doctor came in and smiled.

"Okay we are going to start the anesthesia; you are going to go to sleep. This will probably be a 2 to 3 hour surgery, are you ready?" the anesthesiologist asked.

"Can he hold me while I fall asleep?" She asked and they smiled.

"Sure," he said with a smile and got her hooked up. The last thing she remembers is Randy Orton walking out to the ring.
