Felix’s determination

Felix was dismayed to find out that his biggest dream might not ever come to pass. You see, ever since Felix was a little boy he had dreamt of climbing Mount Everest. Felix only had about six months left to live because of a terminal disease. He could have gone to climb Mount Everest next week since his disease had not progressed to its more serious stages yet. But now, thanks to terrorist activity, he was not allowed to leave the state. Felix just did not think that was fair. Just because some other clowns in his fraternity were being idiots did not mean that the whole fraternity was like that. But since his frat members were commiting terroristic acts the whole fraternity was prohibited from leaving the state for six months. Oh perfect thought Felix. I only have six months to live and they impose a stupid ban on my fraternity in my last six months of life. What can I do about this? Felix thought about it for a minute. Hmm. I can call up the fraternity president and see if can contact someone and maybe they can make an exception for me. Let me see where did I put that phone number? Oh here it is. Felix pulled out his telephone and started dialing the phone number to their headquarters. six oh six four eight two seven seven eight six. Ring. Ring. Hello?
Hi, this is Felix Ingelsberry. I am member of the Cincinatti chapter.
How are you?
I am okay. Well I would be okay if it were not for this order not to leave the sate. You see, I was not involved in those actions. I do not know who the pereptrators were, otherwise I would turn them in. Is there anyway that you can make an exception to the rule.
No absolutely not no exceptions.
Well you have to hear me out. I just found out that I have a terminal illness. I have been given six months left to live. All my life, I have had one dream and that has been to climb Mount Everest. I have to do it soon before my health deteriorates. I have a team all prepared to help me climb this mountain. I just need your blessing to go and climb this mountain. Will you please reconsider?
Well, I guess I can make an exception in this case. Okay, go on ahead and climb the mountain. You must not let any of your frat brothers find out about this or everyone is going to be calling here for exceptions.
Of course, Of course I understand.

Felix hung up the phone and immediately began to call his team together. Fifteen minutes later his team of experts was at his house. Thirty minutes later they were on their chartered airplane on the way to Mount Everest. Six monhts later Felix died a peaceful death with the knowledge that he had completed his childhood dream.
