One person i know that had a loss of innocence is my sisters friend Nicole. She is roughly 10- 12 years old and she has cancer. I don't really know many specifics about it but i know she has to have chemo all the time. She has a tumor behind on of her eyes and it doesn't allow her to see out of her one eye. This is a loss of innocence because instead of being a fun loving free kid, she has to always worry about her cancer and getting chemo all the time. The way the family handles it is by taking one day at a time, they never really know whats next. She hadn't really learned much from it yet because she is still young but I'm sure she learned the world can be a cruel place and she will never be as free and innocent as the other kids. As of right now I'm not 100% sure how she is doing, they are still fighting the constant battle with her cancer and I'm not sure exactly if its doing good or bad right now.
