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 .
