Question

【题目】 Many years ago, my dad was facing a serious heart condition. He fell suddenly ill and had to be sent to hospital.

When he recovered, he wanted to do something to keep himself busy, so he decided to volunteer at the local children’s hospital. My dad loved kids. It was the perfect job for him. He ended up working with the seriously sick children. He would talk, and do arts with them.

One of his kids was a girl who was seriously ill and was paralyzed from the neck down. She couldn’t move or do anything, and she was very sad. My dad decided to help her. He started visiting her in her room, bringing paints, brushed and paper. He stood the paper up, put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint. He didn’t use his hands at all. All the while he would tell her, “See, you can do anything you set your mind to.”

At the end of the day, she began to paint with her mouth, and she and my dad became friends. Soon after, the little girl was sent home because the doctors felt there was nothing else they could do for her. My dad also left the children’s hospital for a while because he became ill. Some time later after my dad had recovered and returned to work, he saw the little girl who had been paralyzed and only this time she was walking. She can straight over to my dad and hugged him really tight. She gave him a picture while she drew with her hands. At the bottom it read, “Thank you for helping me walk.”

My dad would cry every time he told us this story and so would us. He would say sometimes love is more powerful than a doctor, and my dad---who just died just a few months after the little girl gave the picture---loved every single child in that hospital.
