Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks
When she was in her young age living with her grandfather and her cousin. Every day she would get up and work for her grandfather and at the end of the day she would go play with her cousins. Then Henrietta and her cousin came to a liking with each other. I have been raised to know that having a liking for your family member is just wrong and you should not do it. So I feel that Henrietta should fall in love with someone who is not related to her.
Henrietta had another boy cousin who was crazy. They had called him crazy Joe. He was so crazy about Henrietta, and had fallen in love with her. Every time they would all go play together, he would try so hard to impress Henrietta. But Crazy Joe was so mad about Henrietta marrying their cousin that he had attempted to kill himself. His uncle had found him, took him to the hospital and was able to save his life. I feel that crazy Joe needs to get over his self. Joe is insane for trying to kill himself for a girl and a girl who is his cousin.
Right before Henrietta found out she had cancer, she felt that something was not right. She had told her cousins and they felt it in her stomach. They told her she needed to go to the doctor because something like that was not normal. She decided not to tell her husband or anyone else because she didn’t want them to worry and she had not gone to the doctor because it was not hurting her. Henrietta should have gone to the doctor the moment she felt the ball in her stomach. That needed to be checked out a lot quicker because it may have been able to save her life or at least given her a little more time to be with her family and let them know every day that she loves them so that will be the last thing that she tells them.
Henrietta did deserve some kind of fame. I do feel that people should know who she is and thank her for the cells so that now
