Maynard. Maynard was a 29 year-old college graduate that was diagnosed with terminal cancer. She had two choices: to live with pain and suffering or die with dignity.

I felt my feet swell in my worn sneakers as we extended another stride into the expensive dress shop on the right. “There it is!” Zoe squealed, ripping a shimmery gown from the first rack. I caught a glimpse of the triple digit number printed in black ink on the tag and winced. I couldn’t afford anything here, let alone look good

I tried to be a ruthless killer that lurked in the damp wilderness that morning. Hunting was my passion, and I needed that single moment of success. I remember the day like the back of my hand.
