A
That year, I was a Junior 2 student. Falling off the stairs hurt me in the head. Almost everyone thought I was
dead. But they were wrong. However, it was difficult to get back to normal(正常的) life. I had to leave school and
learn everything, walking, talking, and yes, maths.
To help me with that task, Mrs. Pillar volunteered to come to the hospital and later to my house once a week.
We began with basic maths skills. As time passed by, I made progress.
I remember very vividly how she came to my home on Sundays, sat with me at the kitchen table, and threw
different coins on the table. She asked me to show her 38 cents, 17 cents, 63 cents. It was challenging, but she also
made it fun.
After a year and a half, I had progressed a lot, both in body and mind, to return to school. Seven years later, I
graduated from the University of Texas at the top of my class.
As years went by, I always kept in touch with Mrs. Pillar. Unluckily, one day my parents told me that Mrs.
Pillar had been in hospital because she suffered a stroke(中风).
Now it was my turn to help her. Mrs. Pillar lay in bed, unable to speak or know anybody around. I pulled
some coins out of my pocket, dropped them on her bed, and asked her to show me 12 cents. The nurse thoughtthat my action was very strange until one day Mrs. Pillar smiled happily as I began working with her—just as she
had worked with me years before. She made progress everyday and was moved out of ICU(重症监护室) and
finally out of hospital.
One day, I called to wish her a happy New Year. She spoke into the phone excitedly, “Happy New Year to
you and your family, Michael. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me.” I quickly said, “Thank you for
everything you’ve done for me.”
