That's What It's All About
 
	Christie never thought she would be the one to die. She was only 10, and had 
her whole life ahead of her. She had Cancer. Not the beatable kind either, it 
was terminal. Because it was brain Cancer. In her mind just moments before 
her last breath. She started singing. She sung '' Amazing Christie'' { Her 
own version}. Everyone joined in. The people there by her side were: Her Mom, 
Her dad, Her boyfriend, Brian, and her best friends Kaylee and Maddie. The 
last breath she took was at 4:00 p.m. She was first diagnosed in 1999. 3 
months after her 6th birthday. She would always talk about her future with 
Brian. Everytime she was finished she would always say that's WHAT IT'S ALL 
ABOUT. My name is Maddie and I had to sit there and watch my friend die.
