The History of Videl
8 years old – My mother continues to struggle with her cancer. She puts on a brave face as she endures hundreds of gruelling chemo and radium treatments. The doctor's announce that they believe they have found all the cancer and my mother goes under the knife for the second time in a marathon 16-hour operation. It fails. Despite the doctor's best efforts they discover that the cancer is just too wide spread. My mother is diagnosed with bowel and stomach cancer. The doctor's decided to put my mother through more chemo and radium but my mother asks them not to. She knows she is going to die and she wants to live the remainder of her life spending time with her family. My father pleads with her to change her mind but he finally gives up and respects her wishes once he realises that she is not going to budge from her decision. We spend as much quality time together. But eventually my mother becomes too frail to walk and is confined to a wheelchair. However, she still insists that we spend as much time together as we possibly can.
