Ice cream can’t cure cancer or bring back a lost love, but it can make one feel better for a while.

A bout 18 months ago, my father was in hospital recovering from a major lung operation. My mother had recently 36 , and my father had taken the loss of his partner of 55 years very hard and had lost interest in 37 . Trying to get him to 38 each day was quite a chore as he didn’t want anything. The one thing, 39 , that he would ask us to bring him was ice-cream.

One evening, to our 40 , he refused to eat the ice-cream, 41 I placed it in a staffroom freezer. A little while later, my son decided he wanted it, so I 42 it for him.

As I passed another ward（病房）, a 43 asked, “Are there more where that came from?” When I explained the 44 , she apologized. She then said that she had cancer and could eat very little, 45 the occasional ??ice-cream.

The next evening, I decided to buy two ice-creams. On the way to Dad’s room, I stopped in at the 46 woman’s room, and 47 her the ice-cream I’d bought for her. She was 48 stunned that I had thought of her, and 49 the gift with tears in her eyes. I spoke with her for a few minutes, 50 what was happening in my family and listened to her 51 story of pain and suffering. It was apparent that she did not 52 many visitors, and the ice-cream and our short chat meant a great deal to her.

I 53 the gesture a few days later, and this time was 54 with a huge hug.

I never even thought to ask her name, and never saw her again, but it made me realize that an act of 55 can be more rewarding when you give it, rather than receive it.
