Hi I'm Ally Dawson and that is my bucket list. You are probably wondering why I'm making a bucket list at seventeen years old. Well it's because I have Blood Cancer. I got diagnosed with blood cancer when I was seven. For the past ten years I've done many surgery's, Chemo Therapy, radiation, etc and they have all worked for a little while but then the cancer comes back ten times worse. My Doctor, Doctor Becky Lucas, says that the ONLY other thing they could think of that might save me is blood and bone marrow surgery. Taking my spleen out which they did two years ago helped a little and blood and bone marrow along with every thing else they've done should end the cancer but they haven't been able to find a match for me. None of my three sisters, parents, two uncles, two aunts, eight cousins, or my grandparents could match. They even tried Trish and her large family but none of them would match either. Doctor Lucas said that they will keep looking but if they didn't find a match in the next six months my life is literately over. I've been in and out of the hospital most of my life but since it's so close to my end date they are only going to let my out every once and a while. Right now I'm waiting for Trish to come to the hospital from school so I decided to start writing a song. I felt confident they would find a match in time so I decide to write a song about my cancer from a positive stand point.
There's always gonna be some canyon in the way.
There's always gonna be a river I cannot cross.
Somewhere along this path that's chosen me
I know I'm gonna fall down, feel lost, feel weak.
But wherever it leads.
No one said this would ever be easy, my love!
But I will be by your side when the impossible rises up.
We will travel this life well-worn,
No matter the cost, no matter how long.
We will leave our footprints behind
And carry on, carry on, carry on, carry on!
Some will write you off before you ever start.
Some will say the journey's just too hard.
Somewhere between right here and the other side
There will be fear and doubt in the deep dark night.
But we will survive, yeah!
No one said this would ever be easy, my love!
But I will be by your side when the impossible rises up.
We will travel this life well-worn,
No matter the cost, no matter how long.
We will leave our footprints behind
And carry on, carry on, carry on, carry on!
We may fall behind,
Lose miles along this road.
We will be alright,
I will never let you go.
No one said this would ever be easy, my love!
But I will be by your side when the impossible rises up.
We will travel this life well-worn,
No matter the cost, no matter how long.
We will leave our footprints behind
And carry on, and carry on
"Nice song," Trish said as she walked inside the room with a guy following in behind her.
"AHH! Trish you startled me."
"Sorry."
"Who is that?"
"Oh Ally this is the guy I've been telling you about."
"Oh. Chase right?"
"Jace," He said.
"Oh right sorry."
"No worry's you must be Ally. Trish has told me so much about you. I'm sorry about the cancer. I know how hard it must be for you."
"Oh really."
"Yeah. My Aunt passed from breast cancer a few years ago."
"Oh. I'm sorry to hear that."
"Hey Jace can you be a dear and get Ally and I some frozen yogurt," Trish said.
"Sure. I'll be write back."
"So how are you feeling?" Trish asked with concern in her voice.
"I'm fine."
"How is the match hunt going?"
"They are still looking but I'm sure they will find someone soon," said shrugging it off.
"Hopefully."
"So I haven't heard any gossip from you in like seven months because you have been to concerned with me. Is Dallas still a huge jerk? Is Austin still putting up Kira? I miss the gossip queen." Trish's face feel as soon as I asked those questions. "What's wrong?"
"Austin's been in the hospital for almost eight months and Kira and Dallas are dead."
"What?"
"Dallas was drunk when he drove Cassidy, Austin, and Kira home and they got into a crash. Dallas died on impact, Kira died of a heart attack, Cassidy got a broken leg and sprained wrist, and Austin just woke up from a coma."
"Oh."
I've heard so much about Trish's school mates from her and have been around the school campus and sports games plenty of times. I never liked Dallas he was a total jerk and player and Kira has always been a total bitch to me and Trish. Austin I always thought differently of though. He didn't fit the typical personality traits of a high school athlete. I've heard and seen that he treats girls with respect and he is always really sweet and romantic. I don't see what could have possibility tempted Kira to cheat on Austin who know how many times with the captain of the Baseball team Elliot Snow who in my opinion is just as bad as Dallas. Anyway like I said I never liked Kira and Dallas but hearing they are dead shocked me. I didn't know how to feel about them any more.
"I think Austin is just a few doors down from you. The doctors said that he is going to be here for the next six months at the least. I know you have a thing for him."
"I do not. I barely know the dude. He is practically a stranger to me."
"If you say so," she said in a sing-songy tone.
After a minute Jace came back with the frozen yogurt.
"Well we got to go. My parents want me home by 7:00. I'll call you latter."
"See yah. I was nice meeting you Jace."
"You too Ally," Jace said as he shook my hand before grabbing Trish's and left me alone.
I looked at my bucket list again and realized if a match wasn't going to be found and I was going to die in six months If I was going to gather up enough courage to do all of this I better start now.
There's the start of Ally's story. I want to thank LoveShipper for the first review but I need more. So please review. And check out my other A&A Stories.
