The most interesting event in the book so far was when Jeffrey fell off the counter and his nose started bleeding. Steven’s mom took him to the emergency room, and found out that Jeffrey has leukemia. They were transferred to  a hospital in Philadelphia, and stayed there for about a week. Steven’s mom called every night, but his dad didn’t keep him updated on what was happening. When Jeffrey and Steven’s mom got home, both his parents got into a fight and Jeffrey threw up. Steven helped Jeffrey got ready to take a nap so he would feel better. This has caused Steven to not complete assignments or pay attention in class because Jeffrey is everything to him.
