Karen had a son called Michael. Karen and her husband would have another baby soon. Michael was happy to be a brother. Every day he sang a song to the baby.

Later Michael’s little sister was born. But she wasn't in a good condition. The days passed by. The little girl didn’t get better. The doctor told the parents there was very little hope.

Then Michael kept asking his parents to let him see his sister. “I want to sing to her,” he said. But kids are never allowed to go to ICU(重症监护室).

Finally, Karen decided to take Michael to see his little sister. The doctors refused Michael at first. But Karen said if he didn’t see his sister, he might never see her alive.

Michael looked at his weak sister. After a moment, he began to sing, “You're my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy...”

The baby girl seemed to respond. The pulse(脉搏)rate and breathing began to calm down.

“Keep on singing, Michael,” Karen encouraged his son.

“You never know, dear, how much I love you, please don’t take my sunshine away.”

Day by day, Michael kept singing. Several months later, the little girl was well enough to go home.

All the doctors and nurses called it a miracle(奇迹), a miracle of the brother’s love.
