Going back to school

The next day when Nik and Sonia were at school, one of Nik's friends asked why Ali had to keep going to the hospital. Nik explained that Ali had cancer.

“Our bodies are all made up of millions of little parts called cells. Cancer is when one of the cells in the body goes wrong. Ali has to keep going to the hospital to have medicine to get rid of the cells that have gone wrong”
