As I sat dumbstruck in my doctor's office, I heard other words: "cancer," "stage," "grade." Until then, Cancer was the zodiac sign of my friend, stage was what I performed on, and grades were what I got in school.
До этого рак был знаком зодиака моего друга, уровень - уровнем сцены, на которой я выступала, а оценки - тем, что я получала в школе на занятиях.
