Stolen Nine Years, Courtesy of My Mother
My sister, Anna Hawkins, and I are twins, but I'm slightly heavier than her when we were born.
Anna has always been weak and sickly since young, whereas I'm always active and healthy.
When Anna was four years old, she was diagnosed with leukemia.
Mom blamed me for stealing Anna's nutrients when I got born, so I needed to return the nutrients to her.
When I got my blood extracted for the first time, a thick syringe was used on me. I was so scared when I saw it.
Mom told me not to be scared. She gave me a magical pen, stating that whatever wish I wrote down with the pen would come true.
I wrote, "It won't hurt."
When the syringe was plunged into my arm again, Mom bought me a sweet loll
