When it Rains it Pours
Ch. 4- And So It Begins..
Hank had been taking chemo for days now. But, he still felt sick, even though he had left the hospital. His father urged Hank to go back to school, and he had on a few occasions. However, he felt the need to vomit often, his skin ashen, and his hair was gone from the treatments. He had been a fairly social able, popular person, now the kids treated him different, especially he's former teammates. He know they all felt sorry for him, and he hated that most of all. Pity. He had received that after he's mother died as well.
Hank, also felt like he was missing out on his life. Alex had gotten a temporary replacement and someone had taken his place in football as well.
It was hard on Hank's father too. He had been through this before, only eight short years ago, he had lost Eileen. He was now worried about he's son. He wouldn't be able to handle it if anything happened to Hank as well.

"Hank?" Ruth called. "Jamie's here."
Jamie? Hank thought. He had never been to his house before, and only came to the hospital only once to see him.
"Alright." Hank replied.
"Hey." Jamie said as he walked into Hank's room.
"Hi."
"I came here because I wanted to apologize for not seeing you more often. It just brought back too many memories, I guess." Jamie replied.
"Memories? Memories of what?"
"Look, Hank. There is something I never told any of you. I've been in remission for six years."
"What?"
"It started when I was eleven. Leukemia."
