Lesson 5 of 5 – Fifth Important Lesson – Giving When it Counts…
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 & 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 cheek. 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.
”Work like you don’t need the money, love like you’ve never been hurt,
and dance like you do when nobody’s watching.”
NOW more than ever – Peace…Pass It On!”"”
