What is a hero to you, and who is your hero? To me, a hero is someone who is strong no matter what happens. To begin with, my hero is my little sister, Katie. First, she has been fighting cancer since she was just two and a half years old. She has never given up. Secondly, even though she might be in the hospital, she barely ever loses her cool. She is always the same person the whole way through. Thirdly, she never gives up on herself. She has never said that she was going to give up on this. She just says I can’t wait until this is over. Finally, one of the most important things is to hang out with your friends. Whenever Katie was younger she wasn’t able to get out of the house because she couldn’t get sick. She never complained about not being able to spend the night at a friends’ house, or just being able to live a normal life. I know I would be the one complaining about this, and I have no clue how she does this when she is just ten years old. This truly proves that she is the strongest person that I will ever know in my whole life. She may not have won this battle but she will always be my hero forever.
