I felt excited to work on such a big project to help with cancer awareness that would help other people who don't have cancer understand more of what kids with cancer go through
My picture is of my dead chicken that my older brother Jason gave me. Every time I would be admitted to the hospital it would hang on my IV pull. It would even come out of surgery with heart monitors stuck on it. My chicken is my companion.
The road describes that it seems like the treatment never ends and when you think it might end soon, something else would happen to make it seem like there wasn't an end.
The purple shows puke. One treatment...you always feel like puking and the purple helps to describe that feeling.
The deep green color shows my anger. Before I got cancer I believed I was invincible. Nothing can happen to me. Then I was diagnosed with ALL and I could no longer do anything I enjoy like running cross country competitively and playing basketball and even making myself dizzy running a 2 mile race around a track. This made me really MAD.
