Relating.
The picture relates to the book A Walk To Remember because its a sighn for leukemia. In the story Jaime has leukemia and was diagnosed two years before she had told Landon that she was sick. She had stopped responding to treatments because the doctor said she should just live as a "normal teenager" like every other teen. When Jaime had told Landon she was sick he didnt want to believe he kept denying it at first , not thinking or anything just in shock. As days went by Jaime had gotten weaker and tired then she was the day before. Landon had finally "excepted" that she was sick and continued loveing her as much as he had before he knew she was sick. When he had asked her to marry him Jaime had excepted and the summer after there marrage Jaime had past because of her sickness. Landon kept loving her , and in his mind she was still alive.
Connection- A Walk To Remember.
This in a way is related my friends parents. Her mom and dad were in the same situation but they were older then Jaime and Landon. Her father was the one who had cancer. About 5 months after she was born they had went to a doctor and they told them that he had been diagnosed with cancer. She didnt know what type but all she knew is that he had cancer. When she was about two years old her father had passed away , so she grew up without knowing her own father. She has pictures with him as a little girl but sometimes she wonders what it wold be like if actually knew what it would be like to know her father. When she was about six her mother had married her step dad , she loves him like if he were her real dad , but at times she wishes she knew who her real father was.
I Needed To Do What I Had To
"If I wanted to go to UNC , I had to do something."
Landon hadnt really thought about going to college until he started to talk to Jaime. She had asked him what his plans were for the future. He had a big dream about going to medical school and to just finish college. When he had started to think about what he was going to do he had filled out an application for the college he was proud about his decision to go to college.
This is a siggnificant moment because Jaime had changed his mind about going to college and to really think about his future and about the things he was going to do.

Im Sorry. . .
"I promise to make it up to you."
In the book Landon had "dissed" Jaime infront pof his own friends. He was still secretley trying ot hide the fact that he had a friendship with Jaime. He went to her house to apoligize to her but she had just slammed the door in his face. He finally got her to come out and he started to tell her how sorry he was about what had happened. She finally kinda forgave him , and he said "I promise to make it up to you." When she forgave him they started to talk about the play and the started to reherse there lines together.
This moment is significant because its a step closer to Landon falling in love with Jaime. It brought them closer to eachother and they understood how eachother works now.

Just 17
"When I was seventeen my life changed forever."
In the story Landon says in the beggining and end of the story. He beggins with it one the prologue part of the book. He says his life changed forever when he started to get to know who Jaime really was. And not just some type of religious girl whos the daughter of the revran. When he told her he loved her he knew his life wouldnt be the same after. He had feelings for her like he never had for anyone else in his life.

It Was A Walk To Remember
"It was , I remember thinking , the most difficult walk anyone ever had to mak e, in every way a walk to remember."
Page 237
Jaime slowly made her way down the aisle with the only strength that she had left in her. Her father supporting her down the aisle walking with her towards Landon. Half way down the aisle Landon noticed she was getting tired of walking but she didnt give up. She took a moment to take a deep breath and kept walking. When she finally got to Landon A nurse had rolled a wheelchair to Jaime so she can sit down while her father began the wedding. A short time after the wedding Jaime had passed , and Landon had done the things he promised he would earlier in the book. After Jaimies death Landon still wore his wedding ring to show that he still loved Jaime very much and his love would continue after she was gone.
This quote is significant because it gives the whole story the main title , "A Walk To Remember." It shows that Landon wasnt just using her but he really truly loved her for her. He wasnt doing the things he did to other girls to her. When he asked her to marry him her father knew that Landon really did care for his daughter and he would allow the wedding and marriage to happen even though Jaime had not enough time to live , but Landon didnt care he loved her in everyway and didnt care how much time they had together.
