Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year-old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the little boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, “Yes, I’ll do it if it will save her.”
As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheeks. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, “Will I start to die right away?”.
Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood in order to save her.
This needs to be some type of book. I don’t read passages or books and I thought this was very interesting.
This story is cool and interesting
I think the story was sad because the brother helped the sister by giving some of his blood to her
Wow that was amazing. That was so sweet it made me and my sis cry so hard. God should bless those with such a kind heart.
Compassion and innocence…The two virtues that are present in their purest form in the kids.
Inspirational…
Such an innocent mind made a great decision. ☺
