SUMMARY: Scully knows what she needs to do in order to fight the cancer that is invading her body. ----------------------------------------------- Praying for Health by Erin M. Blair ----------------------------------------------- Cancer invades my body like a soldier entering a foreign land; my blood is filled with the enemy. I know what I must do, what I must do in order to win the war against the cancer that has metastasized into my bloodstream. . I want to live. I need to fight; I need to beat this. I lost my faith along the way. I've stopped thinking of miracles since I was abducted. I need my faith back as I cry in my mother's arms. If I don't, I know the inevitable will happen. I can only imagine what Mulder and my family will feel. . I remember a time when Mulder held me in his arms, telling me that the truth shall set us free. I hope he's right. I hope it'll save the both of us. ---- the end ---- Feedback: Yes, please. Send to: eblair@sonic.net Author's Notes This story is written for the X-Files Drabbles community on Live Journal.
