I feel really terrible, now. I never should have made a move, I should have turned you down for coffee. . blah blah blah. In the end, Mark, if anything does happen you're gonna get hurt and I wont feel a bit good about that.
But it's not the most lethal kinda cancer a girl can get, and we caught it early when we did. I know when you hear it the first thing y'think is death, but I'm gonna call Dr. Wilon, first thing inna morning. And I'm gonna fight it.
I got a lot to live for, lot more than t'die for. Shit, I aint got no reason to die. Whether it means anythin' or not, no matter what kind, there's love there. Love's somethin' that you cant put a timer on, Mark. And it aint somethin that makes sense neither. I'm sure you know that.
Know- that as long as I got air in my lungs, and red in my fair, I plan to fight as long and hard as I can, and I plan to die a little old lady, maybe you'll be there when I do, maybe not. But I got me a baby t'raise, a family I love, and a good man.
Plus it aint gettin' me 'fore I get through college, done waited too long t'start.
Try and rest easy? And if'n you need when you aint here, y'know y'can call and just listen to me pick up the phone, make sure I'm ok. I am ok, and I will be ok.
