They spent the last of their time together laying under the great pine, the sweet aroma and children’s laughter comforted the girls. Before long, Breya became too weak to walk, she had to stay home and rest.

She said that she started to notice the pain around the age of nine and in the begging of the book she describes the pain as “… deep and untouchable because the pain was genuinely unanticipated.” It wasn’t until an accident while playing a sport that the cancer was addressed. From that point on she would go through an endless array of depressing hospitals and shady doctors. She would talk about the way doctors shunned away her mother’s questions for more information and how they would downplay her condition as “nothing”.

Over the span of four months, each week I would regularly meet with a former colleague of mine by the name of Terrion Austin. Terrion recently moved from Nebraska to Tennessee, due to his job opening that presented itself that would allow for him to be closer to both him and his wife’s family.

This frustrated him tremendously. In addition to his frustration, Terrion was often confronted by members from his job that would frequently ask him questions that he did not feel he could answer. Moreover, his inability to answer did not come from a lack of knowing the bible; however, it was quite the opposite. Terrion, like most young Christian, grew up

I had started to believe they were right but didn't want to settle with it until it happened to me. I have been friends with Ally since we were pre-school age. We had briefly lost touch for the past few years but began to reconnect once we had more classes together.

Her foot didn’t have the length problem like Anastasia had but she had a different problem, her feet were too fat. She could barely fit her toe in the shoe. Nevermind her foot. But she wasn't going to give up she was determined to fit her foot in no matter what it took. She went so far that the glass slipper shattered into a million pieces. There was glass everywhere. “That’s not far it shattered before I could get my foot in. “ Drizella whined. The prince knew better. He said his goodbyes ands left.
