An eight year old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money left. When she heard he daddy say to her   36   mother with whispered desperation, “  37   a miracle can save him now”, the little girl went to her bedroom and took out her piggy bank. She   38   all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Then she   39   her way six blocks to the local drugstore.

“And what do you want?” asked the chemist.

“It’s   40   my little brother,” the girl answered back. “He’s really, really sick and he is still in hospital, so I want to buy a   41  . His name is Andrew and he has something   42  growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him.”, “We don’t   43   miracles here, child. I’m sorry,” the chemist said, smiling   44   at the little girl.

In the shop was a   45   customer. He stooped (=bent) down and asked the little girl, “What kind of miracle does your brother   46  ?” “I don’t know,” she replied. “He’s really sick and mommy says he needs   47  . But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought my   48  .”

“How much do you have?” asked the man.

“One dollar and eleven cents,   49   I can try and get some more,” she answered quietly.

“Well, what a coincidence,” smiled the man. “A dollar and eleven cents the   50   price of a miracle for little brothers.  51   me to where you live. I want to see your brother and   52   your parents.” That well dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon. The operation was completed without   53   and it wasn’t long before Andrew was   54   again and doing well.

The little girl was happy. She knew exactly how much the miracle cost … one dollar and eleven cents … plus the   55   of a little child.
