After the hockey session finished and the kids went home Stan later met with his super best friend Kyle
Hey dude so how did the hockey training go then asked Kyle smilling
Oh don't even go their omg it was hopeless said Stan sighing
That bad shurly working with little kids arnt that bad Kyle said trying not to laugh
Kyle you have no idea their hopeless the kids can't even Skate let alone play hockey if I had a doller for every time a kid fell on that ice well I'd be richer than Token and if they think they can win anything jeeze their crazy Stan said
Wow that bad is it said Kyle with a laugh
Worse and stop laughing its not bloody funny and also to make matters worse one of the kids I met has Cancer and the other kids think they can get cancer from him by playing with him so I had to tell them it's safe to go near him and to touch him they won't catch it Cancers not like a cold or chicken pox Stan said
Wow Cancer God that sucks poor kid so is he on your team asked Kyle
Yeah he's one of the older Kids he's about 5 I think he's in Kindergarten Nelson Brown I think that's his name does your Ike know him Stan asked
Dunno I don't pay much attention to Ikes friends yet he sounds older than Ike so very much doubt it but iv never heard of him yet I don't know any of the tinies in Kindergarten Kyle added
Yeah same here yet I think their is a Brown family that lives near by the dad works in the gas station dunno what the.dad does but iv never really heard of Nelson before But I feel really bad for him the poor kid and he seems to love ice hockey he's one if not the only kid that can skate but thing is he isn't fit to play the game and iv never met a kid with cancer before I thought only really old pepole got cancer not little kids Stan said sadly
Yeah I'm aware that anyone can get cancer old pepole and little kids but listen they have cures now a days I'm shure they'll do all they can for your new friend Stan so don't worry he'll be fine Kyle said rubbing Stans back
Yeah I heard he's getting treatment and that also he's lost all his hair too Stan said
Oh that will be chemotherapy their giving him they give that to pepole who has cancer it's ment to help them but sometimes it dosent depends how bad his cancer is really abd that's one of the side effects they lose their hair but don't worry I'm shure your friend will be fine and when he gets better his hair will grow back Kyle added. Smilling
Stan smilled Kyle was a very bright boy way ahead of his 8 years no wonder he got nothing but straight As and was top student in the school but also though Stan nearly knew Nelson he somehow liked the little boy
Stan seen Nelson a few times at practice and he liked how good he was he had the makings of a good player and he impressed Stan
When I get better and grow up I really wanna play ice hockey at the Pepsi centre that's my dream to be famouse and on tv Nelson said and Stan really hoped that little Nelson would fulfill his dream and be famouse even though the truth was the boy was termily ill and would be lucky If he lived to see his next birthday
Then one day a couple of weeks later when Stan was due to coach the kids again he noticed Nelson missing so he thought maybe the boy was tierd as he tired very easily as he was a weak frail boy
Then one of the ice rink workers showed up as Stan got everything ready for class
Hey Stan theirs some pepole here to see you the man said adults too
Who me wonder why Stan said as a young couple walked up to him the woman looked if she'd been crying
Hey coach are you Stan Marsh the man said coming over

Hi son were the Browns little Nelsons parents he's in your class
Oh yeah I know him he's a good kid yeah he's on my team why asked Stan
Er son can we please talk to you a moment it's about our Nelson the man said sadly
Er yeah shure he's not here today is he okay Stan asked worriedly
Well as you. Probely know Nelson has Leukemia and he's taken a turn for the worse oh coach his cancers really bad it's spread Mr Brown said starting to cry whist being comforted by his sobbing wife

Yeah im sorry son I didnt mean to yell at you it's just that I don't know what to say to him really I'm hopeless at these things both of us are and sad thing is neither of us can look him in the face and tell him Nelson dosent even know he's dying he thinks he's gonna recover and get better and grow up to be famouse one day like his heros he watches on tv or in his magazines listen coach will you tell him Nelson looks up to you he's been talking about you non stop your like a brother to him Mr Brown said
Wow I nearly know him I only met him a few weeks ago Stan begain

Wel I'm deeply touched by that and as I said Nelson is a really good kid very keen player and yeah I like him but I'm sorry no I can't tell him that he's gonna die I think that should be your job your his parents and outside thise practice sessions I don't even see Nelson Stan said
Nah not me coach im just his father but your his coach his buddy your more of a father than me to him mr Brown said
Well I'm sorry I began Stan but got cut off by Mr Brown who was now on his knees shocking Stan
Please coach please I'm begging you will you please tell him he's in Hells pass hospital and he's asking for you he misses you Mr Brown said grabbing Stans hand
Oh boy Stan mutterd to himself
Er yeah okay I'll visit him but I can't be a father to him I'm not much older than him myself only like 3 years between us were both just little kids but I can give some big brother like advice like my friend Kyle gives his little brother Stan said
That be perfect oh thank you coach thank you so much Mr Brown said
So that was it Stan had to go and see Nelson at the hospital and Stan wasent keen on hospital and avoided them like the Plauge yet he thought about how little Nelson would feel alone scared in the hospital so he forced himself to visit
Stan went up next day his mom dropped him off on her way to work and Stan soon found the ward that Nelson was in he wished Kyle was with him but it being the weekend Kyle was roped into helping his mom with. The shopping and Kenny was probely at Starks pond with Craig and Tweek or at home reading some porn magazine and Cartman would rip on Nelson so Stan was on his own
Soon Stan knocked on Nelsons door and after hearing a tiny voice saying come in he enterd the room
Nelson looked worse than ever a tiny frail looking figure lost in the huge bed even though the bed was normal size also he was hooked up to machines that bleeped and drips. Also his pale brown eyes looked lifeless no sparkle in them atall his skin was pale and he had dark shadows under his eyes and a sick bowl near by him
Now it really hit Stan hard that Nelson could die it was terrible seeing him like thise he shouldn't be like thise he should be out playing fit and heathy with his little friends in the sun he was just a little kid and he was suffering badly but despite his thoughts Stan had to be cheerful for the boy whist he remaind in his room
Stan looked around the room sighing it was decorated with cards flowers with messages of Get well soon from his little friends and a huge handmade banner saying we love you Nelson that hung above his bed and a balloon saying get well soon. Was near by
As Stan went in he put a smile on his face and sounded cheery Oh hey their Nelson Stan said smilling
Nelson shifted into a sitting position and smilled a bit despite coughing
Oh hi their coach thanks for coming he said
Er dude I can always come back later if thise is a bad time for you Stan said going over to the bed
Yeah it is a pretty bad time for me I guess you see coach I'm only 5 years old and I'm dying pepole try to hide the truth but I know I'm dying coach what is it like to die Nelson asked. Shocking Stan
Oh Jeeze that kid can really catch you out with his questions Stan thought
Er I'm not shure really I kinda think it be like before you were born I guess Stan said I dunno really he added
Oh I see so why do I have to die now why don't I get to grow up and be an ice hockey player I don't wanna die just now does it hurt when you die Nelson said sadly
God damn it kid look I don't know Why things like thise just happen I'm not God Stan yelled a bit
Nelson detected frustration in Stans voice if he was getting pissed now so he quickly apologised
Look Nelson what I mean is that nobody really knows these things see but everyone does it were all gonna die no one gets to live forever were all gonna die one day me your parents my parents my friends at school their families everyone's gonna die when our time comes but mostly pepole die as old grown ups but young grown ups even little kids die too and some pepole die before their even born you see so your not the only one who will die young see so do you feel better now Stan said smilling
Yeah I think so said Nelson returning the smile
Good okay then ..now I have to get back to practice I have more coaching to do later but you hang on in their kid I'll viisit soon I'll bring you some magazines and that Stan smilled giving Nelson a thumbs up and headed for the door but Nelson called out again stopping him
Thanks coach your awesome but will you do me one huge favour coach said Nelson as Stan came back into the room
Er yeah shure I'll try he said thinking that maybe that Nelson wanted some water to drink or a newspaper or something from the vending machine in the corridor but Stanngot a suprise by Nelsons request
Coach you know that big game your in tonight Nelson said
Er yeah what about it asked Stan Looking at Nelson
Well I'm gonna be watching it on tv so can you make it for me so that I don't have cancer and that I will grow up to be a famouse ice hockey player Nelson asked
Stan was shocked that Nelson had some really big demands jeeze is he kiddin he really thinks im God iv never met anyone like him. Stan thought shocked
Look dude didn't you hear anything what I said I told you I can't do that wish I could but I can't I'm not God im just a kid like yourself so I can't cure you sorry Stan said
Well then will you just win for me Nelson asked making Stan sigh
Yeah okay I'll try can't grantee anything but I'll try my best Stan said leaving before Nelson hit him with other hard demands
Though Stan did like Nelson at times he didn't like him he asked questions he didn't know the awnser too and gave him demands he couldn't carry out Stan had never met anyone like Nelson in his entire life at times he wanted to tell the kid to shut up and stop all the self pity and why me carry on but that would maybe hurt him and Stan would hate to hurt Nelsons feelings
