This morning, I received a phone call from one of my close friends, Nikko, which immediately changed this bright sunny day into a dark terrible pit of endless sorrow. He told me that Diane’s dad had just 36 , at 12:00 on January 3,2008.
Nikko told me that Diane had 37 everything about her dad on her blog, so I 38 right up from bed and got to her blog instantly. Her blog, always so 39 and nice, is suddenly filled with sorrow and grief.
She must have been writing with 40 streaming down her cheeks, with eyes so 41 from the sleepless night, and with a heart so 42 and regretful and yet, she wrote the post, full of determination and will, 43 strength and love. She showed no 44 of weakness and retreat. She 45 that she didn’t notice how her father was feeling before the sudden stroke (中风)   46 him on his sleep. I feel so sorry for her , as her close friend, that I am not able to give her my support and a shoulder to 47 because I live so far away. But I know she will be 48 . She had determined to become the pillar(支柱) of 49 for her mom and her brother.
Although Diane’s father is no longer 50 , his memories would always be with his family. I gave Diane my deepest condolence（吊唁）for her 51 of her most beloved one.
I have known Diane and her family ever since we were in primary school. 52 can be really cruel sometimes, 53 someone or something you have learned to love and rely on. A(n) 54 death like Diane’s father is the most sorrowful. Destiny didn’t even give his family the 55 to say their last goodbyes.
Diane wanted everyone to cherish their loved ones and do not wait until it’s already too late. Tell them you love them and let them know how you feel before it’s too late.

There are great doctors and perhaps it is enough to say that Dr Charles Mayo was one． 36 ，it is not enough for me．
Charles Mayo was not a 37 of mine in the sense that he would 38 by for dinner or remember my daughter’s graduation．We were not that 39 ，for he lived in Minnesota and I lived in California．He was a friend in the sense that he 40 more like a friend than a doctor when he was being a doctor．
I got very close to him just once．More 41 ，he got very close to me．I was flying my own plane to Washington and I felt a serious 42 in my back．It turned around， 43 for a clinic nearby and got in 44 with Dr Jan，my doctor．Jan at once said I had appendicitis (阑尾炎) and I told him he was the 45 doctor I had ever met．“I have no fever and any other symptoms of it．How can I 46 have appendicitis?”
“If you want to 47 better as quickly as possible，we’ll have Charles Mayo look at you．”It took Charles Mayo about thirty seconds to 48 to Jan’s request．
Charles was washing his hands when I was 49 into the operation room．I said，my
50 shaking，“You have done this before，haven’t you?”
“Of course，”he said．“Twice．”
Among all his interests he was craziest about being a doctor．He faced 51 often enough to know that while it is final in a sense，it is not 52 final at all．He enjoyed 53 too much not to know that it has a meaning beyond here and now．
54 he died on July 29，1968，at the age of seventy，following an accident，he lived on in the 55 of his books．I am glad he wrote them，giving people the feeling that we still have him．
