I always knew that kids are in anyway stronger than most adults will be. Not physically but spiritually.
We have a kid at school who is battling leukemia for a few years now.
Doctors gave him a year.
He ended up in a wheelchair and most of the days, he was too sick to go to school. Got chemo and lot of medications, even a bone marrow transplant.
But he never gave up fighting and six months ago, I saw him again, walking with crutches. Not quick but really steady.
He…

Went to a couple of funerals. Got completely shot down by a girl that Defcon 5 Friendzoned me, and consequently, I'm avoiding Atlanta from…

After a turbulent time with losing my boyfriend to another girl. Breaking up and finding myself again.
I just got passed the news that my grandfather probably won't get out of his bed alive anymore.
And I know this is sad news, even though we saw it coming.
My Grandfather and I used to be together all the time when I was younger, and even though we are not actually related. (my Grandmother lost her first husband when my mom was only 1) people kept saying we looked…
