Day 49Ethan–I’m still not feeling too well, so Sam took me to the doctor. I was hoping I’d be done with them when I came up here, but as Sam said, we have to do whatever we can to extend my life, and that includes going to the doctor when I have a cold. She’s right, but I don’t have to like it.EvanSam got up as quietly as she could and made her way to the bathroom. This was the third morning in a row she had gotten sick. With shaking hands, she reached over and grabbed the wet cloth to wipe her face. She was beginning to get worried. While it was mostly only first thing in the morning, there were still times throughout the day when she was nauseous. The last thing she wanted was for Ethan to worry about her. For so many years, it had just been her. She had no one to rely on, and at that moment, she couldn’t depend on Ethan. She hadn’t been completely honest with him, really with anyone. She knew that once she and Ethan became close, she should have opened up to him, but she didn’t know how to.
