Yes, almost all of the characters changed throughout the story. The character Stella changed at the end of the story, throughout the beginning of the book she is the same and at the end she ended up breaking the rules and gets within six feet of Will and she almost dies. The Character Will ended up changing throughout the entire book because he met Stella and she changed his mind about things. Stella ended up changing his mind about how he wants to live until he dies. Will ended up taking his medications and following the rules so that he could be with Stella in the future. The character Poe changed throughout the story because he ends up getting sicker and he ends up dying at the end of the book. That's when Stella started to change and she started to not follow the rules and that's when she got within six feet of Will.

I feel that Will is doing something wrong by not wanting to live and take his meds to survive long enough to get new lungs. Will just wants to leave as soon as he turns eighteen and live his life before he dies, if he does this the longest he will make it is two years. I understand why he doesn't want to follow directions anymore but this is a life or death decision. If he waits it out and takes all his meds and follows the rules and waits for new lungs he will survive a lifetime, but he is too impatient to wait for new lungs. Along with Will not wanting to follow directions, he is always getting into trouble by leaving his room when he isn't supposed to and leaving the hospital when he isn't allowed to. I think that if he gets to know Stella he will realize what he has to live for and hopefully follow directions and take his meds like he is supposed to until he gets new lungs. I think that because he likes her, i think he will end up listening and taking his meds like he is supposed to.

This story helps me understand more about Cystic fibrosis and other diseases more better because the whole story is about people who live with this disease and what they do while they have it. I did not know that Cystic fibrosis was an actual thing until this story taught me about it. I  learned that Cystic fibrosis is a progressive, genetic disease that causes persistent lung infections and limits the ability to breathe over time and also that it is mucus that blocks the breathing airways it also is a life threatening disorder that damages the lungs and digestive system. I also learned that people with Cystic Fibrosis can't get within five to six feet with in each other because they might catch each others infections and can die. I learned all this because the two main characters in the book have it and it talks about it throughout the book. In the book both the main characters start to fall in love but can't get with in five to six feet within each other. This book also helps me understand more about how strong love can be and i can see how far someone will get to dying just to be with someone else. In the story the two main characters get within six feet of each other near the end of the book and they almost died. In the end they end up both being ok and Stella (The Main Girl) gets new lungs and Will decides to do his medications and work up the transplant list so he will be healthy enough to be with Stella.

The character Will reminds me of Lenny because Will doesn't like following the rules and neither does Lenny. Will never listens to the doctor and Lenny doesn't listen to the teachers. Will doesn't listen to the doctors because he just want to leave the hospital and live his life before he dies. Lenny doesn't listen to teachers because he is one of the smart alec students who never gets any work done. The character Stella reminds me of Holly because Stella is a rule follower and and takes all her medications when told to and Holly always follows the rules and does her work when told to and she works really hard to keep her grades up like how Stella works to keep her medications on time. The only thing that Stella and Holly don't have that much in common is that Stella does youtube and Holly doesn't really go on electronics. Poe reminds me of Samantha because Poe is a trickster and is really funny like Samantha is. Poe also reminds me of Samantha because Poe also like Stella takes and does his meds like he is supposed to do and Samantha does her work in school and tries really hard to get on to Principles list.

The Characters in the story so far are Stella, Will, Poe, and Barb so far. Stella is very nice and is a rule follower. She is very kind and cares about people and is a protector of her friends and family. She is very easy to respect because she is one of those people that would respect you and do anything to protect you. Her best quality would probably be her kindness.  Will is a smart alec and is a rule breaker. He is the kind of guy the would seem like you couldn't trust but he is once you get to know him. He would be a hard person to try to respect because of his attitude towards people. Poe seems like a funny intelligent guy who would be a good friend and trustworthy. It would be a little hard to respect him because he might trick you into doing things but he is very respectful. Poes best quality would be his kindness and his comedian side. Barb is very nice and kind if you are nice to her. If you disrespect her she will not trust you and won't give you stuff. Barb would be really good to respect if you respect her she will respect you.

The personality traits of Will is that he is independent, alone, wreak less, and he doesn't follow the rules at the hospital. He doesn't take his meds that he needs to take and doesn't go to the places he needs to go. He said that once he turned 18 he is going to leave the hospital and stop all treatment and be free before he dies. Will has been in many hospitals throughout his time having Cystic Fibrosis. Will would always break the rules at all the hospitals he's been to. He also has a rarer kind Cystic Fibrosis so that is another reason why he keeps moving hospitals to see if any other them can't or have a cure. With Wills kind of Cystic Fibrosis it means he needs to be even more careful with what he does or he can die within less than a month, if he tries to get healthier he would last about three to four more years, but Will lost all hope and don't want to have treatment anymore. Will is always leaving his room and going places he's not supposed to be going and doing things that he shouldn't be doing.

The Conflict in my story is between Stella and Will. This conflict is an external conflict because they both talk to each other and are trying to get to know each other. At first when they met they didn't like each other and were mean to each other but now they are trying to get to know each other. Will and Stella have a lot in common, they both have Cystic Fibrosis and they both go to the same hospital. They both want to get out of the hospital as soon as they can but Will wants to leave without treatments and Stella wants to leave with a new liver and all clean and healthy. Stella and Will start to figure things out about each other not by talking but by looking each other up on the computer. Stella looks up things about Will to see what he is about and when she first meets him she finds out that he is the kind of guy who doesn't follow the rules. Will looks up Stella and he sees her YouTube channel and looks on it and finds out things about Stella, he learned that she is funny and is very careful about being safe while having Cystic Fibrosis.

What parts of the book seem most believable or unbelievable? Why?

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that this book is believable because this book is about two people who have Cystic Fibrosis who fall in love with each other but can never be together. Because they both have CF they cant get within 6 feet of each other. I think this is very believable because this happened in real life and the story is based of the true story. Something else that i think is very believable is the fact that they have to stand 6 feet apart at all times because diseases do spread and bad things can happen. So far i have read about them just meeting and finding things out about each other. I have learned that Will (The Guy with CF) is a rule breaker and doesn't care about the meds and wants to just live his life till he dies and he has a rarer kind of CF than Stella does which means there is a higher risk of doing things and is very contagious. I also have learned that Stella (girl with CF) follows all the rules and takes her meds on time and wants to live to get new lungs to live a great and happy life.
