BJ’s Response to Sean Brodie’s Story “Acute Leukemia Cancer.”


First in foremost I had to look it up to figure out exactly what acute leukemia cancer was. I had a hard time finding it. The closest medical diagnosis I found was acute Lymphocytic leukemia. So my first suggestion is if you are ever going to write about a specific disease make sure you put the entire medical name or a simple name like just cancer. People, especially those who have experience with this disease, will notice the difference. The story was about a little girl, Elizabeth, who was dying of cancer. I liked the idea of the battle between good and evil. Although, I was lost many times. I think the pace was just too quick in this story. One second we are in the hospital room, and in the next paragraph we are in heaven. I just wished you had focused on one idea for a little bit longer. But it was a good story I think. I liked the idea. And the granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth was great too.
