One day we was in the living room and she looked like she was wanting to tell me something but she was scared to say it I had asked her if there was something wrong and she had replied with sweetie I’m fine. I knew something was wrong and she was hiding it. So when I went home I had told my mom and dad that grandma wasn’t acting right.
I went and seen her every day and then one day she was very sick and we thought she wasn’t going to make it. I was the one that stayed with her every night at the hospital for a week. I got up every time I heard her moving or when the nurse came in. She had got out a week later. She kept telling me she was fine and she was going to be around for awhile.
She looked me dead in the eyes and was like sweetie I promise you I will be here till your 18. I few months later we found out that she was fight against cancer.

    It was 2009 and I had been in sixth grade for a couple of months. I was on the phone with one of my friends from school when my mom called through my door for me to come out into the living room. I ignored her and kept talking for a few minutes when she called me out again. I rolled my eyes and told my friend I would call her right back. I walked into the living room and it seemed odd to me that both my sisters and dad were all out there too. I watched my mom take a deep breath with my dad by her side. As she began to speak her voice shook and gloss covered her eyes. “The doctors found a lump in my last mammogram.” she said. “It came back as cancer. I’m going to have to get treatment but I’m going to be okay.” No one else said a word, we all…

    We were so happy, I started explaining to her where we were, how the place looked like and that there was a big garbage can, as I explain tears dripped from my eyes. We hugged each other, cried, and stayed put right next to the garbage can. We finally saw my mother’s silver BMW car. We slowly walked towards the car, making sure that it was my mother or one of our parents are in there.

    I'm so nervous and worried but they called us into the room to get her ready for the surgery. My little baby girl didn't know what was about to happen. My heart was falling apart to see her so small and having to experience this. They finally take her in so I tell her how much I love her and cry. After seven hours of waiting, they call me and tell me that the surgery was over and I could go in to intensive care to see her. That moment was the worst seeing her in so much pain. She passed out on me twice and doctors were so concerned of her reaction. Being there for a month wondering if she was going to make it or not is something I don't wish no one will ever have to go through. But my little angel, my warrior, fought so hard, she overcame it and we left the hospital on January 29th making our way back to El Paso,…

    At the age of seven I started to notice a change in my family. My dad stopped coming to church with the family, came home later and later each night, and eventually started fighting with my mom all the time. One day after school my sister and I got off the bus like a normal day, when we realized something was wrong. My mom was waiting for both my sister and I at the bus stop when she normally just waited for us at home. When we approached my mom we noticed that she had been crying, she had red puffy eyes and wasn’t smiling like she usually was. When I asked her what was wrong she simply said, “We will talk about it when we get home.” At that moment my stomach dropped, I knew something was really wrong.…
