My Daughter Took Chemo Leave; I Made Her Earn Money

My daughter had taken medical leave from school for chemotherapy.

My boyfriend gave me the idea: let her earn her treatment money by finishing her study plan.

"That way she studies while she does chemo, and once she's healthy again and goes back to school, she won't have fallen too far behind."

To get the money for her treatment, she really did start following the study schedule.

Chemo ended at one in the afternoon, and on the bus ride home she'd memorize vocabulary.

The moment we got home she could go straight to her practice tests.
