Being sick and in the hospital is not fun at all. A little while ago I was a happy 7-year-old boy who played soccer and enjoyed having fun times with my 2 1/2-year-old sister. Today, everything hurts me. I need to re-learn how to talk and walk. Doctors told my mommy and my daddy, Rosy and Edinson Tejada, that recovery is a process that will take a long time and that it will cost a lot of money we don’t have. I don’t know what that means, all I know is that I miss my friends from the first grade and the fun times I had before I got sick. Being healthy again is all I want. Would you help me? I hope I can count on you.
