Assignment: Final Draft Of Your Narrative
2.12 Assignment
For this assignment, you will submit your final draft of your narrative. Remember to incorporate a flashback or flash forward along with dialogue.
Lauren is a normal sixteen year-old girl with great eye-sight. Ten years ago, her and her parents were hoping that she wouldn't lose too much sight or lose it completely. Lauren was born in Nicaragua, which is a fairly poverty struck country. As a child, Lauren would play outside with her friends, usually in the dirt, in the rain. After she would take a shower from playing, she would complain various times to her parents about her eyes hurting or bothering her. At first, her parents thought it was some type of allergy, but as she complained more, her parents decided to take her
to the nearest doctor. For a while the doctors weren't able to tell what was wrong with Lauren's eyes, so they insisted she'd stay in the hospital until they did. After about two weeks of testing and waiting for results, the doctors informed her parents that Lauren had a parasite in her eye that would most likely impair her vision. As they finished telling her parents, they also mentioned that they didn't have the right equipment to operate on their daughter. The only solution they had was to go to America ad get to a hospital there as quickly as they could. Now this was a problem because her parents didn't have the money to but three tickets, let alone play the hospital bills in America. While in the hospital with her parents, Lauren often thought about the times where she would be the only girl not being able to get those new shoes or the pretty dolls she wanted. She knew her parents didn't have enough money, she was scared.
Later that week, Lauren's parents found out that their family has pitched in to put in some money for their trip and hospital bills. That day, Lauren and her parents fly out to Florida, and Lauren get the operation she needs to get rid of the parasite. Lauren is thankful to her parents and the rest of her family in Nicaragua for helping her keep her eye-sight and for giving her a great experience.
