Uma

121665UmaH.BMy hero is my sister Uma. She is nine years old end she goes to 4th grade. At first it was hard for me to have a sister. I didn't like children because I was the only child and I hated sharing. I was always complaining and being moody about it, but she grew on me and I don't know how to live without her. In my opinion she is very beautiful. She has long blond hair, grey eyes and incredible long lashes. She is very mature for her age and she has incredible humor. She is also very smart and loves to play flute. At the age of four she become sick. At the beginning they didn't know what is wrong with her. Summer 2012 she was send to hospital at the age of four. My mom went with her so I was alone with my dad and brother. It was hard time for all of us and still is. In  2016 they found out she has a tumor. All this time she was always happy and she was comforting us about it, although she was sick. Summer 2017 they discovered that she doesn't have tumor any more but that she is bleeding around the heart. Right now she is still in hospital and I miss her a lot. She is my hero because she is an amazing person, always makes me happy and she is a true fighter.
