A soccer match, steals the particles pass struggling shipped to the other basket layup and violently slap rebounds. Sprint back to defensive positions, I saw a familiar figure from the stairwell next to the stadium : My father., I play basketball the past three years the first time I saw my father came to see me race. busy father, always difficult to find the time to., he smiled to see me play, and the coach had a brief conversation. That night, my father said to me: "brother, you get back in the court himself, continue towards the dream of becoming a practice to be a dream," I will always remember this sentence, and have always taken it as my motto in life.
Life was hard for my father. The peak of his career, he was diagnosed with liver cancer and continue to struggle for eight years with. Even to the end he never stopped his two children (my sister), and the illness of his wife's care, upbringing and support. His unselfish concern for me, I will never forget.
The father knows that he can no longer live for too long, and decided to teach me how to independence. Stage in my adolescence, whenever I run into problems always directly went to my father to discuss. Dad's response is always the same: "You go think about it, then come to me." No patience and stubborn, I'm always within a few minutes after they ran back to look for my father. My father would say: "If I'll be gone, you will be how to do it?" For this response, I was always very frustrated. However, over time, I grew up to understand what the intentions of the father. He wanted me to help the problem-solving method insistence also having a profound impact on my life.
It was a great time. Basketball, school, and life, all very smoothly until the father was taken to the hospital that night. Day every day after school, I go directly to the hospital with the father's side. I believe he will recover, discharged, and then look at me a basketball game. Really, everything will be all right, everything will be back to the original OK.
He has failed to leave the hospital. Father before his death last few days into a semi-conscious state. Breathe moments before he opened his teary eyes staring at my sister. Exhaustion of the last effort, he tried to say what is beyond their grasp. Gazed at his father's eyes and told him, "Dad, do not worry about my sister and we will take a good, maybe that is exactly what he was waiting to hear ; perhaps that is exactly what he needs comfort. So Dad peacefully closed his eyes never left us.
That sentence is not just Offhand, but I am my beloved father's commitment. Even if I was with her sister for the future, there is no clear direction, and I still firmly believe that we will find a way out. Although this road is not easy. Twelve or thirteen, we are likely to be sent to an orphanage or aimlessly wandering the streets of Taipei.
Luckily, my dad's sister lived in the United States, and her husband genuinely accepted. Even if the couple in Georgia Augusta has three children, they still open the door and we biological child takes good care of.
The new challenges come along with a new life. The most direct impact is the language. At first,Cheap NFL jerseys I could not even an English word do not know. I do not understand American culture, about to become my favorite American football is that there is no such concept. When you first arrived on this land of opportunity, I was actually confused, afraid depressing. In the brain, I continued to repeat himself, then, "Dad, do not worry about my sister and we will take a good," I will never break my father's commitment. However, the real I can revive life or Dad sentence "practice to be a dream.
