Postcards from the World
[1]While the sun washed over the grass of my grandmother's front garden, I sank into one of her armchairs familiar to me. Life, as I knew it, had changed. My beloved grandmother, my nanny, as a “parent” in the absence of my father, had cancer. It was terminal (晚期的).
[2]As she watched a Sunday afternoon TV program, she remarked to me that she'd never left Australia and that now she never would. Seeing her restricted to “travel” by watching TV, I swallowed the sadness that came with knowing that chapters of her life were to be left unwritten.
[3]At work, feeling helpless, I wiped tables and took orders and thought hard. The Saturday afternoon lunch rush was not enough to stop me from my thoughts. Collapsed with growing sorrow, I was reminded of the power of the Internet and the collective strength of human sympathy. I raced from the end of my shift to ask strangers on the Internet for help.
[4]My nanny Del has cancer. It's terminal and she will never see the world. Please send her postcards so she can see the world from her armchair. I can offer nothing but gratitude.
[5]I resolved not to breathe a word of this; if nothing came, I couldn't bear to carry her disappointment along with my own. And if something should wander into our humble little letterbox, I would consider it a blessing and embrace it gratefully.
[6]Days turned into weeks: Nothing. And Nanny's health declined rapidly. I was trying to balance my full-time study, babysitting and waiting tables with the tiring responsibility of caring for my grandmother. As I helped Nanny in the early hours of those mornings, she would chat to me, sometimes reflections of her lifetime, and other times, the disturbance caused by medication. She seldom talked about her regret of being unable to travel, but I was still hoping for something.

One afternoon, about six weeks after my post, a travel-worn postcard arrived in our letterbox. Upon seeing The Statue of Liberty on the postcard, I could tell it came from America. When reading “Nanny Del, miss you in the USA”， I was moved to tears. That simple postcard was a beacon of light to me in a desperate period. I held it in my hands tightly, read and re-read the words and felt something—hope. The following days witnessed our letterbox crowded with postcards from all over the world: India, Portugal, Italy, China and so on. It delivered the simple but beautiful description of the world, especially people's warmth to my sick nanny.
My dreams of armchair travels became a reality. In the months that followed, we travelled the world together with the postcards from all corners of the globe. The little letterbox found Nanny laughing heartily. Nanny enjoyed every visit from the postman. “I just can't believe strangers did this for a little old lady they've never met，” she murmured many times. I reached out to the senders, expressing my sincere gratitude for their selfless love. Given Nanny's worsening condition, I didn't know how long she could hang out for the trips with me, but I did know it was love that made her world go around.
