Marlee's thoughts at this time:
"It’s not easy knowing you don’t get to end your senior year the way that you want to and have always dreamed of since you were small, but knowing all the lives I’m saving makes me feel better. I do wish my senior year had more of the traditional ending, but I spent four years in high school making memories; it’s okay to miss two months. This situation sure made my senior year an unforgettable one."
