porcelain-white prison aguishly entrapped my already stimulated senses with misery. I stared out the window and watched the rain hit the window and pondered to myself how I was not ready for the bumpy road that lied ahead for my family to continue: more testing, surgery, chemotherapy and headaches. There I was thinking negatively again. I was now very depressed at the age of 17. I was feeling confused, angry, sad; I was an emotional wreck, actually.
