Como minha irmã gêmea Ana sempre foi frágil, todos viviam mimando ela. No dia em que a nevasca isolou a montanha, o helicóptero de resgate tinha apenas uma vaga. Segurando meu diagnóstico de câncer terminal, quando eu estava prestes a entregar minha vaga para Ana, ela simplesmente levou a mão à cabeça, alegando tontura. Toda a família instantaneamente se aglomerou ao redor dela, carregando-a para dentro do helicóptero. Meu marido Heitor tocou meu braço fraturado e disse: — Alice, você terá que esperar pelo próximo. Minha filha Aurora até me atirou bolas de neve: — A tia Ana precisa mais do que você! Não monopolize! Só depois que o helicóptero decolou é que vi Ana mostrando a língua para mim triunfante pela janela — ela nunca tinha sentido tontura alguma. Depois de ser resgatada, descobri que tinha apenas três dias de vida. Para aqueles últimos dias, resolvi dar tudo de mim para trocar um pouquinho do amor da minha família.

It takes 57 days of me pleading with my boyfriend, Hayden Weatherford, before he finally agrees to marry me.

In another week, we'll have been married for two months." It dawns on me that Hayden and Scarlett were married on the day I first begged him to marry me. I receive a message from Hayden on my phone.

Max Siegel loved me deeply and promised me the grandest wedding anyone had ever seen. However, just three days before the big day, everything changed. The custom-made wedding dress he'd ordered for me was given to his stepsister, Fawn Lewis, and instead, he handed me a pill—one that could erase memories. “Kate,” he said, “I don’t want to hurt you, but Fawn has just been diagnosed with terminal cancer. She doesn’t have long. Her last wish is to marry me. I can’t have her leave this world with regrets. “This pill will make you forget everything about us for a few days. But don’t worry. After the wedding is over, I’ll give you the antidote, and you’ll remember everything again. Then, I’ll give you the wedding you deserve.” His tone left no room for negotiation. Without hesitation, I took the pill and swallowed it. However, what he didn’t know was that I developed that drug myself, and there was no antidote. Three days from now, I would forget the man I loved most—him. And once that happens, there’s no turning back and no chance to start over.

Ang mga magulang ko, ang pinakamayaman na magkasintahan sa bansa, ay sikat na mga pilantropo. Kailangan ko hingin ang permiso nila kung kailangan ko gumastos ng higit pa sa limang dolyar. Sa araw na nadiagnose ako ng terminal cancer, humingi ako ng 100 dolyar, pero sa halip na tulungan ako, sinigawan nila ako ng tatlong oras. “Anong klaseng sakit ang makukuha mo sa edad mo? Kung hihingi ka lang ng pera, galingan mo naman sa palusot mo.” “Alam mo ba na ang 100 dolyar ay kayang suportahan ang mga bata sa naghihirap na mga lugar ng matagal na panahon? Mas may sense pa kausap ang kapatid mo kaysa sa iyo.” Kinaladkad ko ang katawan ko na may sakit pabalik sa maliit na basement. Pero noong dumaan ako sa mall, nakita ko ang mga magulang ko, live sa malaking screen, gumagastos ng malaking yaman para lang rentahan ang Disneyland para sa kapatid ko. Ang isang daang dolyar ay hindi sapat para sa isang round ng chemotherapy. Gusto ko lang bumili ng bagong damit at lisanin ang mundo ng may dignidad.
