My father had 　41　 me not just failing eyesight，but an example of 　42　 in the face of hardships as well. We were all living in Bolivia in 1964 when he decided to 　43　 the family to America. He worked tirelessly to 　44 the right of living in the US.

The doll kept turning every day 　25 Saturdays and Sundays when I was at home. I began to wonder if there was a ghost.
