Chapter 5 Precious Time
Megan, Bo, and Luke climbed into the General Lee. Bo and Luke took her mainly to the backroads riding in the car. Whenever Bo would go fast, Megan enjoyed it and she would screech from time to time. Bo even surprised her with a few jumps, startling Megan at first, but then she loved it.
They went riding some more around Hazzard County flinging up dirt everywhere and Megan laughing the whole time. Being with her Cousin Bo made all the difference in the world. He made her happy.
Later that day, Bo took his sister to a carnival that they usually had every year. They road some rides, ate the food, and played some games. While they were sitting in the spinning tea-cups, Bo looked at his sister. "So, how are you feeling physically, Megan? Does this whole brain tumor thing scare you?" he asked as he smoothed her hair.
She nodded. "Sometimes it scares me. Most of the time I don't know how much longer I have to live, and It scares me to know that I may never get married or do the things everyone gets to do in their lifetime."
Bo hugged his sister. "It'll be alright. We'll take you to the hospital and they will work on getting you cured. They do have cures for this sort of thing, right?" he asked. Megan nodded "Yeah, they do, depending on if they caught it in time". said Megan.
"Well lets hope for now that they do catch it in time. If they don't then we'll just stay focused on what we can do for now and learn to deal with things". Bo said trying to stay positive. He didn't know how he was going to react if the Doctors said there wasn't much they could do.
