An Unlikely Friendship
Due to the fact that Avaleigh's cancer was detected early and there weren't any obvious signs of the cancer spreading, her chemoradiation treatment ended after 3 months. For some people, it took much longer.
On her last day of chemotherapy, Avaleigh brought gifts for all her new friends at the clinic as well as the nurses and doctors that had helped her through the journey. She was grateful for their support throughout the 3 months and was excited to start afresh.
Of course, she still had to get through that last night of nausea and her head was still bald, but she was optimistic about the future.
Emerson was there by her side as usual and he helped her out of the hospital clinic towards the car.
Now that everyone knew about Avaleigh's condition, some reporters were naturally waiting outside. But they had learned from their past mistakes, so they were a lot more respectful.
