decemeber 12 2007


Please log on to cnn.com, fox.com or msnbc.com and read one current event. Give a 2 paragraph summary and your interpretation of the events.




I read an upsetting article about a young boy who fought a four year cancer called rhabdomyosarcoma which is a fast-growing, highly malignant tumour which accounts for over half of the soft tissue sarcomas in children. So as his years of suffering he decsided to write a book about the pain, fear and all the things that he and the family that had face and put up with. He died with in a few days after his thirteenth birthday. The bok was published and it was titled "Ten Needles" which represents how many shots he took everyday. The cancer began to apper at the age of nine with a small lump on his hands and it spread from there.
