She felt as though life just kept handing her sorrow and pain. When would things start looking up. The loss of a parent at a young age was hard, but to lose a parent and the love of your life at the same time was a hopeless feeling. Only a month after Rosaline lost her father and her boyfriend she discovered that she was pregnant. She was scared and worried. What does the future have in-store for her? How was she going to handle this? What was her mother going to say? Meanwhile, on the other side of town unbeknownst to her, her mother was receiving news that would change her life even more. The doctors told Dalia that the cancer had spread. She knew she couldn't keep things from her children any more. It was time to sit them down and have the dreaded talk. She had been fighting the cancer for months. After losing her husband she decided she wasn't ready to tell her children. Her son Christopher was in college and her daughter Rosaline was only 16. They were already struggling with the loss of their father, and Rosaline's boyfriend Josh. Telling them that she was not going to make it through the year was going to break them. She knew that she could not wait any longer. They had a right to know. Tonight was going to be the night. No matter how much it pained her she had to tell them. She had to tell them before it was too late. She left the doctor's office and called her brother-in-law. He was the only other person who knew what was happening. She wanted him to be there for the kids when she told them. 'It's time, I have to tell them.'
