In Wang's grandmother's situation she lived years beyond those three months, but if she didn't her family would have taken from her the one final chance to do something she loves but never got to do. or they could have prevented her from saying something she always wanted to say to someone that meant a lot to her. I do understand her family's perspective and good intentions, but just like Lulu mentioned towards the beginning, that decision prevented her from having one honest farewell talk with her grandmother who meant a lot to her. That's why I strongly dislike the family decision and consider lying to someone about such a serious thing a line that shouldn't be crossed, everyone in a similar situation to Wang's Grandmother deserves to make one final wish before they die! for some cultures that last wish is sacred. It shouldn't be taken away from someone and replaced with a lie.

That was extremely nice of you to take all of the heat for your friend even though it effected you negatively. Stepping up can be hard sometimes but I bet that was even harder since you didn't actually yell at the teacher and lied. Did your friend learn from you doing that for him?

I haven't seen him in person for about 5 years, so I can't answer that accurately but if I have to take a guess I'd probably say he still a jackass

Hi Majd! I am from the 6:30 to 8:00 English composition 1 class. I completely agree with your opinion and reasoning behind why you think they shouldn't have lied to the grandmother. I also believe that people want to accomplish goals before departing, and it's their right to do so. I also really enjoyed viewing your pages and the pictures you chose to display!
