Mary has many qualities, but I considered her selflessness to be one of her best qualities. Yes, there is the little things that she does, for example buying me food when I don't have money. One of the biggest things she does, is putting her life struggles below my life struggles. Back in September, I was going through one of the worse times of my life, and the person who got me through it was my hero, Mary Camille.

She knew I was doing things where she knew I needed help. I remember she told one of my others friends, “No one can be this depressed she needs help, so I'm going to find her help.” Mary found help through a school counselor. I was upset at first, but if Mary didn't tell that counselor I honestly don't know where I would be at today. The best thing is that, because of Mary I’m such a happy person now. She protected me by taking care of me, being there for me, and being a great support system. This was a hard time for both of us, but after we won the battle I knew I found a
