508's Secret English Garden

A Memorable Event in My Life            508 21 陳則伶

I had been a healthy girl all the time until I was seven. I seldom got sick because my Mother took care of me very well. But one day, I was diagnosed with a disease, and needed a surgery. I was too young to know what would happen to me, but Mother seemed worried after hearing the bad news.

The day of surgery was coming. I was lying on the operating table with Mother’s company. While the doctor and nurses stood around me and injected anesthetic to me, I cried out loudly and shook in fear. Because the nurse couldn’t find my blood vessel, I got more than a shot. During the painful time, Mother kept holding my hands tightly. I fell asleep in release with Mother’s whispering“You’ll be fine. I’m here.”

I can neither remember how long did the surgery take nor what happened after anaesthetized. But I knew that Mother never left me, and calmed me down when I was shouting. From then on, I realized no matter what happened, parents will always stay with their children. Furthermore, it’s important to value the health of ourselves, and don’t keep parents worried.
