RACINE, WI—Despite having been diagnosed four months ago with an often fatal form of adolescent leukemia, 15-year-old Van Buren High School sophomore Rachel Fullerton told reporters Tuesday that she refuses to let the disease prevent her from being a nasty, spiteful little shit.
"I just want people to treat me like any other normal, terribly cruel teenage girl," Fullerton said while flanked by her mother and father, both of whom the courageous young woman had moments earlier told she hated. "If it's God's plan that I only have a short time left on this earth, then I want to spend it mercilessly ripping on that fat skank [classmate] Diane [Ohlweiler], not lying around feeling sorry for myself.
"In some ways, this whole ordeal has been a blessing," Fullerton continued. "It's really forced me to put my priorities in order and realize what's truly important: excluding kids who aren't in my closest circle of friends and generally acting like a spoiled, entitled brat.
"To be honest, there are some days when I feel so sick that the last thing I want to do is steal money from my mom's purse and then call her a stupid bitch when she confronts me about it," Fullerton said. "But every time I start to get down about my situation, I just remember that I'm really lucky to still be alive to sulk around the house and then storm off to my room in a tantrum and not come out for hours.
