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

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.”

Dear students of Class Two, Grade Eight, Rainbow School, How are you?
Thanks for the help from all of you when I was in the UK. After spending a year there, I improved my spoken English greatly and learnt a lot about the culture of the country. Now I’ve come back to China, and I miss all of you. I will never forget the Halloween party we had together at school. I hope that all of you can come to visit China some day. Then I can show you more about the culture of my country.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Yours,
Li Fang

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.
