Deadline

      In the book Deadline a 18 year old boy named Ben Wolf just discovered he has leukemia early his senior year, but decides not to tell anyone, not even his parents. I like this character because hes still here and he still wants to live his life and isnt stopping, yet. "Ive never pictured myself over twenty". I picked this line because it shows that he knows that things will get a lot worse but isnt ready to stop. But I also think he is a little strange because why doesn't he want to tell anyone expesicaly his parents. I think a good conection between two characters in the book are Ben and the doctor. I think this because the doctor is always trying to find whats best for Ben, expesicaly when it comes to not telling his parents and about treatment. He always tells Ben to keep strong.
