That well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon, specializing in neurosurgery. The operation was completed without charge and it wasn’t long until Andrew was home again and doing well. Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place.

听爸爸妈妈谈起小弟安德鲁的事情时,苔丝已是一个早熟的8岁小女孩。她只知道弟弟病得很厉害,父母却无钱给他医治。下个月他们要搬到一个公寓房,因为爸爸已经无力支付医药费和我们的房款。
“现在唯一可以救他的办法就是做手术,但手术费用非常昂贵,没有人肯借钱给我们。她听到爸爸对满含泪水的妈妈低声而绝望地说:“现在只有奇迹可以救他了。
苔丝回到房间,从壁橱一个隐藏的地方拿出一个玻璃瓶子,把里面所有的零钱倒在地上并仔细数了3次,直到确定无误。
她仔细地把硬币放回瓶子并把盖子拧好,悄悄地从后门溜出去,穿过六条街区,来到门上有红色印地安语大标志的Rexall药店。
她耐心地等待着药剂师,可是药剂师非常忙,并没有注意她。苔丝扭动着她的脚弄出摩擦的声音,没有反映。她大声地清清嗓子,还是没反映。
