Birthday Party

By A Friend • May 30, 2019

So, a couple of weeks ago my family found out that my Uncle has stage four brain cancer. I was very upset with the news as I have lived with him for the past nine years. About a week later, May 12, was my B-DAY and I really didn't want to celebrate it with all that was going on. I just got me some cupcakes and went to my friends house to watch GoT. At some point during the evening, it slipped out that it was my B-DAY, but I told them not to worry about it.

The next week, May 19, I arrived at my friends house to watch the series finale of GoT, and found a surprise birthday party waiting for me. All of my friends were there, some driving three hours, to be there. And I nearly cried because of it.
