A
BOY WHO GAVE LIFE
I was just
sent this in the mail from a friend.
I thought you might find it as sweet
as I did. A
Brother's Love There
was this little girl who was sick with a rare disease. The doctor's tried to cure
her, but she kept getting thinner and lighter in complexion. The doctor called
the other family members into a private discussion room. There the doctor explained
that, to fight this disease, the young girl would need a blood transfusion by
someone who had been cured of that same disease. Since her brother had already
overcome that particular disease, and he had the same blood type, he was the ideal
donor. The
doctor pursued to influence the young child to donate his blood to his sister,
while the young boy was very quiet. As the doctor waited for a response the small
boy, with his bottom lip trembling, finally said,"Ok, I'll do it." The doctors
wheeled the two children down the hall to the hospital room. Not
one word was exchanged. Only a few times did the young boy look at his sister,
and as there eyes met, he simply smiled at her. The two children finally reached
the room, and were placed into two chairs beside each other. The doctor started
the procedure for the blood transfusion. The
young boy watched his blood go from his body into his sister's. Trying to hold
back the tears, he finally broke the silence with, "Doctor, when am I going to
die?" The doctor then realized why his lips were trembling, and why he remained
so silent. To the young boy, giving his blood meant giving his life. At that one
moment, that one instant, he would have given his life for his sister.
Just thought you all
might enjoy this. God
bless, Wendy
