It Was August 18, 2014, Just Another Beautiful Summer Day.

It was August 18, 2014, just another beautiful summer day. It was my first day back in the classroom as a third year teacher. I greeted all the smiling faces of my first graders that morning and rushed through the day, trying to get in everything that I had planned. The craziness of the first day of school quickly passed and before I knew it, it was time to start planning for the next day. But all I could think about was getting home and being with my 18-month old son.

How did that one little lump become a cancerous lymph node and change our lives? It was something that I would question constantl y.

My parents kept insisting that I didn’t need to go to the appointment with them, but I knew that I needed to go. Not only to support both of them, but also for healing for myself. As we walked into the chemo room, it was like reality slapped me in the face. Up until this point, I think I was in denial and not willing to fully accept what my Daddy’s future held. I can still visualize the room with all the chairs, monitors, and IV pumps. The next eight hours passed by quicker than I imagined that they would. My Daddy did fantastic with the treatment. As we left the doctor’s office, I still didn’t know what the future held. The only thing I knew for certain was that my perspective on life had changed. I knew that I had been going through the day-to-day routine and just walking through life. But was I actually living it? Was I spending my days doingShow MoreRelatedChild Pageants : A Beautiful Little Girl Who Participated At Pageants1976 Words   |  8 PagesPAGEANTS Phase 2 Aksinia Vorobei HHG 4MI Dr.Gaydos INTRODUCTION JonBenet Ramsey was a beautiful little girl who participated in pageants.
