I Remember My Father

 

Javy Colon

 

In the year 2000 my father went to see his doctor at the hospital. When he came back from the hospital, I was very sad because
the doctor said my father had cancer. He had chemotherapy for eight months and survived the cancer. It was gone. I was very happy for him. But in 2003, he went to the hospital and the doctor said the cancer came back. He stayed in the hospital one week. He looked better, but my father died two weeks later in January 2004.
