Our house was very close to a hospital. We rented some rooms to patients at the hospital. One summer evening there was aat the door. Then I saw an awful-looking man. "He's hardly than my eight-year-old child, "I thought as I looked at him. "I come to see you have a room for just one night. I came for a treatment this morning, and there is no bus the next morning. "
He told me he'd been looking for a room since noon, but he. Then he said, "I could sleep in this rocking chair in the hall. "I told him we would find him a bed in the guestroom, so he didn't need to rest in the hall.
He told me that he had to fish for a living to support his daughter's family. His daughter was. He wasn't sad about it. However, he was grateful that there was no pain with his disease, which was like a form of skin cancer, He was glad to have the strength togoing.
When I got up in the morning, the bed was folded and he refused breakfast. But just before he left, he said, "Could I come to stay here the next time I have a treatment?"
