When I was eleven years old, my life changed forever when I got a serious disease. My life
was
1 with operations and treatments. I felt worried because I was really
2 about
everything that was happening.
One day, I was receiving my thirteenth operation in the hospital. Being away from my
friends and school was just as
3 as the operation itself.
During that hospital stay, I received a card from a volunteer. That small act meant much
to me and gave me
4 again during my time of need. I'll never
5 the way I felt after that
small kindness. I started creating an organization called Cards for Hospitalized Kids.
The charity began with just a(n)
6 dream of giving hope, joy and magic to those kids.
Now it has turned into a national organization that has sent cards to over 5,000 sick kids at
more than 50 hospitals
7 the country.
It is hard to believe that such a small act can do so much good,
8 it does. Seeing a
picture of a child
9 one of our cards with a smile makes us keep this wonderful charity
alive.
