I got an opportunity to go on tour with Janet Jackson as one of her dancers. All of the hard work I had done was   36   this very moment. I got the performance of a lifetime. This opportunity was the big   37  for every dancer. Of course, I was overexcited to hear the news, but it was   38  , because a few minutes  39 , I received horrible news.

   My mother told me that  40  had breast cancer. She continued talking, but my mind was  41  and I could not accept anything  42  she was saying. It was like my  43  was beginning and ending all at the same time. When I finally  44  , I heard her say that she had known about it for a few months, but she didn’t want me to worry since I had a big audition（试演）  45  . She explained that she and her doctor thought she could be cured.  46  , when she went to the doctor’s office afterwards, he told her it was becoming more  47  . And it meant she only have a few weeks to live.

   I couldn’t believe it. I really hoped that I could do something to help her, but  48  there wasn’t anything I could do, I felt  49   helpless. I held her as she wept, and I wept right along with her. I told her that I would be there every   50  of the way, just as she was with me. She cried harder and told me to continue to   51  my dreams.

   I had a hard decision to make.   52  with Janet Jackson is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but all I had was my    53  . Therefore, I decide to wave goodbye to the tour and   54   mother till the end. If it is meant to be, It will happen again, and there will be other opportunities. However, I only have one mother, and  55  her leave the earth is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me.
