                                               Interview of a class mate                                          brett hestness period 1

     Tori a nice, caring and fun young girl whose friends would describe her as just that, and that is probably why she loves being with them so much. Seeing her friends is her favorite part of coming to school everyday. If you were to ask toris friends about her they would tell you that she tries to keep a positive attitude at all times even when things are looking downward.
           Even as a child tori had this positive outlook and loved life. "As a child my favorite memory is growing up on a lake with my cousins in Fairmont Minnesota". Tori has lived a pretty normal and exciting life and is always trying to cheer others up.
      last summer Tori was living life like any other day, smiling, hanging out with friends, and going to work until she went to the doctor and found out that she had thyroid cancer. Tori was shocked and didn't know how to respond. "My friends were and are very supportive of me they always try to keep me happy" states tori. Tori would often have to spend days in the hospital with the doctors observing and doing blood work with only the hope that everything was going to be alright. The doctors told her that she would have to get surgery for her cancer but now they are saying they will wait until she is an adult.
    All Tori can do now is live life normally and not worry about it, which is very hard to do. She still lives a normal life with friends, goes to school, has a job. She keeps a smile on her face living day to day and not worried about tomorrow.
