Nick was not the kind of boy I had expected to spend my summer with. I was hoping to have a 41 the summer before my Busy senior year, but my mother asked me to do her a 42 . One of her colleagues needed a full-time 43_ “You planned to volunteer at the local hospital, why not volunteer to 44 Nick instead?” Then she told me that this six-year-old boy was not a 45 child.

Nick was a lovely little boy who suffered from many disorders. Normal day-care centers would not 46 him. As a baby, he had serious ear infections which left him with equilibrium（平衡）problems. He couldn’t 47 or run properly. I was 48 if I was to take the job when my mother 49 , “Don’t you want to be a nurse in the future? I doubt if you even have the 50 .”

Then I told her I was 51 for the job.

The day started at 7:00 a.m. Nick was my wake-up call! With so much energy and very little 52 , he was quite a mix.

At the park, when he saw all the other children play on the jungle gym and swings, the boy’s face 53 up. How he wished he belonged to the group of his age! You would think it would be 54 to get a child to go down a slide（滑梯）. Believe me, it wasn’t! It took time, a lot of time. But with patience and support, Nick took one step up the slide each day. We worked together to face his 55 and gradually he got closer to taking the slide of his life.

Halfway through the summer, he 56 it to the top of the slide. With my arms holding him tightly, we flew down the slide! I waited for his 57 . After realizing that he was safe and sound, he gave me a big 58 and asked, “May I go down again, alone?”

I had never been happier in my life when I saw this little child climb the ladder and enjoy what other children 59 for granted.

This 60 child taught me that being a nurse means respect, kindness and patience.
