4. It's a humorous (趣闻) now;but the truth it reveals is less than funny.
4. anecdote
Mr Daves fished the same lake as my husband John for over 15 years. A friendship developed but when Mrs Daves died,it left Mr Daves alone. They had no children. So John took Mr Daves fishing with him every time he went.
A few years later Mr Daves had a stroke that paralysed (使擁疾) his right side. He lost his speech and was put into a nursing home. Confined to his bed and unable to communicate,Mr Daves began to suffer from depression. This almost broke John's heart.
He finally got permission from the nursing home to take Mr Daves out for a ride. They were both excited to be together again but it was very painful for Mr Daves to be lifted into John's truck. Because he was paralysed on one side the weight of that side pulled heavily on his good side. John worried about this but still took him out about every ten days.
John had got his truck a year earlier and it was the truck of his dreams,a real cowboy Caddy. He came home one day and announced he was selling it so we could buy a van that was equipped for a wheelchair. He did sell his truck. He uses this van for his transportation. It isn't sporty or fast but it sure eases Mr Daves' pain on their outings and they both enjoy them so much more.
John has made a special fishing rod (钓竿) that Mr Daves can use,so they still go fishing together. Even though Mr Daves can't talk,he has led the nursing home staff to believe John is his son.
Mr Daves is getting old now at 86 but is still enjoying life thanks to John. I don't know anyone who would give up their favourite possession to help a friend. I hope he can be an example for others to take similar steps to help those who are in need.
