In a hospital in Los Angeles that specialized in treating leukemia, a doctor walked out of the ward.
The doctor's expression was a little depressed.
The girl he took over had just been given a critically ill notice by the hospital. She was just coming of age.
In the face of death, no matter who it was, the patient would be overwhelmed by endless fear.
The girl said to him before he left, "Life is about living. Even though my life is almost over, it's not a big deal. Anyway, I'm an adult now, and I've never done anything wrong..."
It was hard to imagine that a girl who could die at any time would say such optimistic words to a doctor.
Finally, when the doctor walked out, tears flowed out of his eyes.
In the ward, the girl, Finley Bothell, had pale lips as she sat by the bed.
She looked out the window at the busy street and wanted to walk there like an ordinary person. She just wanted to be an ordinary girl.
