1965 One hot summer day, my mother died of a sudden illness. At that time, my heart has been shrouded in great sadness and pain. I can't face the lonely life without my mother at the thought of never being cared for by my mother again.

In the afternoon, a policeman came to our house and asked his father for advice, so that the hospital could take out the cornea from his mother's eyes. I was shocked. I don't understand why the doctors gave my mother's cornea to others, and my father answered "yes".

I was in unbearable pain and rushed into my room. "How can you let them treat their mother like this!" I cried to my father, "My mother came into this world intact and should leave intact." "Linda," my father hugged me calmly, "the most precious thing you can give others is a part of yourself.

A long time ago, your mother and I thought that our death would be meaningful if our bodies could help others recover. "He said they had decided to donate organs after death. My father's words taught me the most important lesson in my life. How many years passed, I got married and had my own home.

From 65438 to 0980, my father suffered from severe emphysema and moved in with us. He told me happily that he would donate all the organs that were still intact after his death, especially his eyes. "If a blind child can see the light again with our help and draw a horse as lifelike as your daughter Wendy, how wonderful it would be!

"Wendy likes to draw horses since she was a child, and her works have won many awards." Imagine how happy another parent would be to see his daughter like Wendy. Father said, "how proud you will be when you know that my eyes have worked!" "I told Wendy her grandfather's wishes. The child was in tears and hugged his grandfather in the past. She 14 years old, which is exactly the age when I first heard about organ donation.

/kloc-one day in 0/986, my father died, and we donated his eyes according to his last wish. Wendy told me, "Mom, I'm really proud of everything I've done as a grandfather." "Does this make you proud?" I asked. "Of course, have you ever thought how painful it would be to see nothing? After my death, I also gave my eyes to a blind man like my grandfather.

"At this moment, I realized that what my father left was far from a pair of corneas. What he left behind was a kind of pride reflected in my daughter's eyes! I held Wendy tightly that day. Unexpectedly, just two weeks later, I signed the consent form of the organ donation organization again.

My lovely daughter, talented little Wendy, was killed in a traffic accident ... When I signed it, her words lingered in my ear: "Have you ever thought how painful it would be to see nothing!" Two weeks after Wendy died, I received a letter from the Brave Corneal Center in Oregon. The letter said, "Corneal transplantation was very successful.

Now, two former blind people have seen the light of day again. They become a living memorial of your daughter, a girl who loves life very much and has the honor to share her beauty ... "My blonde Wendy's brush is still waving, and her blue eyes are still shining with pride.
