celebrating.I once asked my readers in the Chicago SunTimes,where I took the place of Ann
Landers,to name the person to whom they would say"I owe you one."Victor La Porte,45,wrote
to me from his hospital bed about his kid brother,Tony.
For three years,Victor had been terribly sick,His arms were black and blue.He often passed
out.His kidneys(肾) had failed,and dialysis(肾透析) wasn't working.Victor was dying.
Doctors said a transplant(移植) would help,and Tony kept offering his kidney,but Victor
refused.He didn't want to put his brother through the pain or the risk of living with one kidney.
Tony insisted."Hey,I love you,"he kept saying.Transplant doctors explained the reason God
gave us two kidneys is that we can offer one.It took a long time to persuade Victor,but finally
he agreed.Several times the brothers went to the hospital,only to have the operation put off
because of Victor's infections(感染).But Tony never thought of backing out.After each
disappointment,he announced,"We're coming back!"He even got Victor a Tshirt that read I'M
NO QUITTER.
Finally the operations were arranged.The one on Tony was harder.Doctors had to remove
part of his rib to get the kidney out.His recover took longer than Victor's, and he had more pain.
Victor wrote:"Because of Tony's unselfishness,I have a chance to see my four children grow
up.I'll never know my brother's pain,fears and feelings.All I know is the love we share.How can
I tell him thanks?Maybe by letting everyone know I have the greatest brother in the world."

C.travel around America

B.A transplant may be the only way to save Victor.
C.Tony gave his life to his brother.
D.Victor knew his brother's pain was not much more than his.

C.I won't back out
D.I'm coming back
