I open the door and walk in being greeted by a man in a lab coat. His name tag read Dave. I wave
"Hows it going doctor dave" I smile he smiles kindly back at me pushing his glases up and gesturing to a small bed.
"I'm doing well thank you sir but Im assuming you were sent hear because your not so let's get you cheeked up on" he says. I so on the strange bed thing and sigh.
"So... cancer" I say twiddling my thumbs. He gives me an attempted look I understanding.
"Most likely, there is a possibility that it is not but that I very low, but just in that small chance that it is not I'm going to ask you to take any metal off and lay down so we can do a quick MRI scan." He says. I nod and pull my shoes and hoodie off. I look around, do you have one of those annoying dress thingys, these jeans have metal buttons on them and i dont know about you but I font think I want to just sit around in my underwear" I say. Dr Dave nods and hands me one
"Just yell out when your ready" he says leaving the room so I could change. I pull the horrendously annoying hospital gown on and set my jeans With the rest of my belongings.
"Ok I'm good now" I call out to the Dr. He renters the room and walks over the large machine.
"Right lie down hear this bed hear will move you under the MRI while it is on I want you to sit as still as humanely possible even just the twitch of your toe could completely affect the results to be unreliable." He explains I nod and lay on the bed on my back facing the roof I hear him flip a few switches and fiddle with the controls then the bed begins to move under the machine I breath deeplyin and hold still eyes locked on the strange lights encircling my being and scanning. It doesn't take long by still every nerve in my body was telling me it was to long. Finally the bed moves back out and the Dr gives me a smile.
"Ok all done now I'm just going to go get these results printed shouldn't be more then five minutes feel free to get back into your clothing." He says I nod and sit up. My bare feet pad lightly across the lino floors as I make my way to my pile of clothing. I pull my Jeans on discarding the stupid gown on the chair in its place. Next I put my shoe on and tie my hoodie around my waist. The Dr comes back in bites g his lips. This was all I needed to know the results.
"You have minor lukimia in your right lung by the looks of it as show by this part of the scan there appears to be a lot of congestion." He says, by now I also have started to bite my lip.
"That would explain the asthma?" I say more of a question the a comment although it was ment as a comment. The Dr looks up.
"You hav asthma, that could mean that you don't have cancer hold on a second while I pull something up. " he mutters pulling a small tablet out of his pocket. He types something in and smiles.
"Looks like you might be in luck sir if it is lukimia it will be curable if we start treatment immideatly, the only catch is that if we are wrong and it's just your asthma the treatment could have some side affects. I think for a moment and then eventually decide.
"Can I discuss it with my boyfriend he is in the waiting rooms.

I sigh as Pacifica hands me a coffee from the staff machine she also hands mabel one and smiles
"Thanks Pacifica, you know it's a rather nice change I always thought you would always be you know rich and rotten but I'm proud of you you left you family's wealth and made a life for yourself, I good one at that" mabel says sipping the coffee. Pacifica grins "Thanks mabel that's kinda nice of you, I think the attitude I had towards my parents dramatically changed after I meet you to, if you hadn't have shown me kindness I might never have even thought to leave them behind" she says sitting with us as I was her break.
"I fell better knowing that I can help people hear, even if I'm just a receptionist I'm happy." She says. As Bill walks back into the reception room I stand up practically shoving the drink into mabels hands. I rush up to him and grab his hands.
"Bill oh gosh ad you ok your fine right its just the flu right please don't tell me it's true" I plead tears again forming in my eyes. He looks down a small smile on his face by his eyes full of pain.
"I-I'm sorry dipper but I won't lie to you, even I it means hurting you" he says I shake my head.
"How long?" I ask letting go of his hands and w ipeing my eyes.
"How long what?" He asks. I look him in the eyes.
"How long Do you have"I ask. He rubs the back of his neck. He looks down and replys with a soft
"I don't know, the doc he thinks it might be early enough that we can try cureing but you and me both know, there is no cure for cancer".
(Not sure how accurate I tried looking the process up but couldn't get much)
