Then she underwent a routine health checkup,and her perfect world broke down.Her doctor told her that she had pancreatic(胰腺) cancer.Surgery was necessary to determine how much the cancer had spread.Hannah was operated on a week later.The surgeon suspected that cancer had spread to vital organs.Ten days later,the lab confirmed his suspicions.
Hannah's doctor said he could treat her with chemotherapy and painkillers,but it was just a matter of time before the cancer killed her.She asked how much time.He guessed that she had less than a year to live.How can this be,Hannah wondered.Doesn't this always happen to someone else?
A couple of weeks later,she visited another cancer specialist.He examined her and read her medical and lab reports.He said he agreed with her surgeon."If you have any once-in-a-lifetime plans,do them now,"he advised.
Instead,Hannah spent her last months in her company,tended to by hospice workers.Her family and friends visited her regularly.The moment before she died,she opened her eyes and tried to say something to her boyfriend.She squeezed his hand weakly.
