Strength, Weakness, and Sorrow

I am a girl with a wish. I have cancer. Leukemia to be specific. The doctor says I'm going to live but I feel very sick. I don't think I'm going to live. I don't think I can fight anymore. I have to do something before I die though. I have a wish. My wish is to meet Scotty Mccreery in person.

The reason I want to meet Scotty Mccreery is because all I do in this dumb hospital is watch T.V. And so, I have to watch American Idol and he's on the T.V on Wednesday and Thursdays. I think he is really inspiring because of his voice and how far he's gotten in his music career. He's finally in the top 2 and I liked him from the beginning. He makes me want to keep going and not give up, like him and his music. He wanted to give up but he didn't and look where it got him. I will not give up. I will be like Scotty and be strong even when it's the worst of times. I believe.

I did it. I met ScottY Mccreery. It was the best moment of my life. It all happened on August 4th. My nurse and my mom took me to his concert. I had a front row seat. I also had a VIP pass to go see him after. Tons of people stared at me because of hair (it's gone) but I didn't care because when I went backstage for my wish to meet Scotty, he told me I was the cutest girl I ever seen, even without my hair. It was the best moment in my life. He hugged me and kissed me on the cheek and then the most surprising thing happened. He brought me onstage and spoke into the microphone that I was his hero! He said because I've been through so much, and I fought through everything so well he was inspired by me. Me! Wow! Me! It was one of those moments that I will never forget in my life.

A few days after that my doctor came into my hospital room. He had a big smile on his face so I braced for the best news. He said my leukemia went away. I was cured! I couldn't believe it1 The doctor said my hair will grow back and I will have a full recovery. Wow! Now this was the greatest news I've ever got in life.
