Sometimes, a good luck is someone who appears in your memory, even for a short time.

As a student of Royal Medical College, I remember a very special doctor named Dr. Richard. When I was eight years old, I was with a serious heart ________ and I needed an operation. My mom did not have the _______for it, and ________ it I might not live to be thirteen years old. After contacting several charities, Dr. Richard got financial (经济方面) help for me through United Way, a Crippled Children’s Organization.

Dr. Richard was very ________. When I was in hospital for an exam before the operation, I was crying hysterically (歇斯底里地). The medical workers tried to ________ me but all failed, then Dr. Richard came, looking at me quietly, with a smile. I ________ slowly. How unbelievable!

________, the time came for me to have that operation. There was a fifty-percent ________that I would not see the beautiful sunshine. And at that time I was only the second or third person to have it. I was really ________, and again Dr. Richard came to me. He said nothing about the operation but I knew that _________would be all right when I saw his smiling eyes.

________, the operation was painful but very successful. Looking tired but happy, Dr. Richard came and _________ me a small toy. For me, a scared little girl who felt all alone, it meant more than a(n) _________. I gave him a hug, with a big brave smile as well.
