"Cameron, can you tell me which color this is?"
With all my will power, with all the energy I had left in me. I stared into the black and white paper in the doctor's hand.
I just wanted to grab the paper and scream into his face that I didn't know what freaking color was on the paper and that I just wanted help, I need help.
I didn't scream.
It was all black and white.
Not just the paper, everything else.
You can do this.. just try. I told myself. But, I then forced the next few words out.
"I… umm… I'm sorry Doctor Soloman, I don't know what color is on the paper."
"Its okay Cammie, Mrs. Morgan if you can join me outside for a moment to discuss the … ermm… eye test results." Doctor Soloman stuttered out.
As my mother exited the hospital room she told me everything was going to be okay.
Isn't that what you said when dad died? I bitterly thought.
"Okay." I croaked out.
The hospital room was so cold I was shivering, I think I was shivering out of fear though.
I got up from my seat and slid open a nearby window, I took in the city below me.
I took in the fresh air and examined the sight below me of the city of Miami.
There was no color.
I reviewed the events of today, and for once, I actually thought about what happened. I absorbed the facts and then I knew.
There was absolutely no color in my life.
It's all black and white.
My name is Cameron Anne Morgan. I am sixteen years old. And I… I.. I'm colorblind…
