My friends and family have all said I should try my hand at being an advice columnist. Said that I am regular Dear Abby and Dr. Ruth rolled into one. So here it goes I'm on here to help with whatever however I can.

I believe he doesn't really have a right to approach it like that. The doctor can let both you and your parents know that expectancy and treatments and options are. But to be blunt like that is rather inappropiate. I would have filed a complaint with the hospital about his insensitive bedside manner. Expecially since you are indeed only 13 years old. Shame on him.

Thank you! Never listen to your first Dr. or your second one. If you know anybody who has cancer do anything you can to get them to call the Cancer treatment centers of America! I am alive and taking my life back up. I could've very easily been dead. I thank God every day that I am still alive. Thanks again! :)
