This story reads like an AI bot took all the famous tween and teen romance books and put them together. It wasn’t bad it just was very unoriginal, and if I was the parents in that story quite frankly I wouldn’t be happy with this.

if my child is actively dying from cancer their boyfriend does not get priority over me, and they don’t get to be there every single moment making it so I don’t get to be the one holding my child while they die.

I personally am not religious and the use of heaven being a reason she was ok to die did not rub me the right way, but if you do believe in god you might enjoy that. I just personally found it very cringey.
