Tess
Dr. Carlton Armstrong
"I don't know," Tess replied with her eyes welling up. "How much do you have?" asked the man from Chicago. "One dollar and 11 cents," Tess answered barely audibly. "And it's all the money I have, but I can get some more if I need to." "Well, what a coincidence," smiled the man. "A dollar and 11 cents, the exact price of a miracle for little brothers." That well dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon, specializing in neurosurgery. The operation was completed without charge and it wasn't long until Andrew was home again and doing well. "That surgery," her Mom whispered, "was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?" Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost, one dollar and 11 cents, plus the faith of a little child.
“我不知道。”苔絲的眼淚涌了出來。
“你帶了多少錢?”那個從芝加哥來的人問道?!耙幻涝幻婪?,”苔絲回答,聲音幾乎低得聽不見,“我現(xiàn)在只有這么多,不過需要的話我還可以再去拿。”
“哇,真是太巧了,”那個人笑了起來,“一美元十一美分給弟弟用的奇跡正好是這個價格?!?那個穿著體面的人叫卡爾頓 阿姆斯特朗,是一位神經(jīng)外科醫(yī)生。他免費給安德魯做了手術(shù),沒過多久,安德魯就康復(fù)回家了。
“那天的手術(shù),”她母親小聲說,“的確是個奇跡,我真想知道那得花多少錢。
苔絲露出一絲微笑,她知道奇跡的準(zhǔn)確價格是——一美元十一美分,再加上一個孩子執(zhí)著的信念。
