Many years ago  my dad was diagnosed (诊断) with a terminal illness . He was unable to work at     36   job . He would be fine for quite a while , but would then fall suddenly   37     and have to be admitted to the hospital .

He wanted to do something to keep himself    38    , so he decided to volunteer at the local children    39    . My dad loved kids . He would talk to them and play with them .Sometimes , he would    40    one of his kids . In certain instances , he would give   41     to the sad parents of these children .

One of his kids was a girl who had been admitted with a    42    disease that paralyzed (使…瘫痪) her from the neck down . I don’t know the    43    of the disease , but I do know that it was very sad for a little girl . My dad decided to try to help her . He started    44    her in her room , bringing paints , brushes and paper . He stood the paper up    45    a backing , put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint . He didn’t use his hands at all . Only his    46    would move . He would visit her    47    he could and paint for her . All the while he would tell her , “see , you can do    48    you set your mind to .”

  49     , she began to paint using her mouth , and she and my dad became friends . Soon after , the little girl was discharged (允许出院). My dad also    50    the children hospital for a little while because he became ill. Sometime later after my dad had recovered and    51    to work , he was at the volunteer counter one day and    52    the front door open . In came the little girl who had been paralyzed , but this time she was    53    . She ran straight to my dad and hugged him really tight . She gave my dad a picture she had done using her   54     . At the bottom it read, “thank you for helping me walk .” Sometimes love is more    55    than doctors , and my dad-who died just a few months after the little girl gave him the picture-loved every single child in that hospital .

My dad also taught me，by example，that a healthy lifestyle is important．He was hardly ever sick．But I don’l think my dad ever even had a cup of coffee．He barely touched alcohol．

He would say，“Boonnie，your voice is a reflection of your overall physical well-being．So if you want to sing well，take better care of yourself.” If I became hoarse(嘶哑)or caught a cold，he didn’t blame me directly：“Well，Bonnie，you know，if you’d get to sleep a little earlier，that would probably be a good idea．”When I decided to get unexcitable about 18 years ago，he told me．“See，

Bonnie，it's so great to see you in such strong voice all the time．”

He just did not complain，even when he was uncomfortable toward the end，from the pneumonia that eventually took his life．He simply made a choice to be positive and not negative．

I am so glad that we had the chance to perform together．I was touched that he tried singing my music，even though the bluesy style didn’t come naturally to him．Then，when I had so much

Grmnmy success with my album Nick of Time in 1990，I realized. Hey，I have one of the greatest singers of all time in my family．I was very nervous about doing the Boston Pops show on TV with my dad．To calm me，he said，“Bonnie，a beautiful song is a beautiful song．Just believe it．”I looked in my dad’s eyes，and there we were singing the Irving Berlia song with the lvric．Of all the duets I've done．that one wiU always be a highlight．
