I didn't cry when I learned I was the parent of a mentally(脑力地) disabled(残疾) child. I just sat still and didn't say anything while my husband and I were told that two-year-old Kristi was --- 36 we thought ---retarded(弱智的).
At seven, Kristi attended school and everything went on well. However, during her second year in school, she faced a very painful experience. The big public 37 of the term was a competition based on the year's music and physical education activities.
On the day of the program, Kristi 38 to be sick. Hopelessly I wanted to keep her home. Why let Kristi fail in a gym filled with parents, students and teachers? What a simple solution(解决办法)it would be just to let my child stay at home. Of course, 39 one program couldn't matter. But my conscience(良知)wouldn't let me off that easily. So I insisted Kristi go to school and take part in the activity.
Just as I had forced my daughter to go to school, later I forced myself to go to the 40 . When the performance began, I knew 41 Kristi had been worried. Her class was divided into relay teams. 42 her slow and dull reactions(反应), she would surely 43 her team.
The performance went surprisingly well, 44 , until it was time for the sack race(跳袋比赛). Now each child had to climb into a sack from a standing position, 45 to a goal line, return and climb out of the sack.
I watched Kristi 46 near the end of her line of players, looking anxious. But as Kristi's 47 to participate came, a change took place in her team. The tallest boy in the line stepped 48 Kristi and placed his hands on her waist. Two other boys stood a little ahead of her. 49 the player in front of Kristi stepped from the sack, those two boys seized the sack and held it 50 while the tall boy lifted Kristi and 51 her neatly into it. A girl in front of Kristi took her hand and 52 her carefully until Kristi gained her balance. Then off she jumped, 53 and proud.
Among the 54 of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I walked off by myself to thank God for the 55 , understanding people in life who make it possible for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow human beings.
Then I finally cried.
