   When I was in seventh grade, I worked at a local hospital in my town. I volunteered about thirty to forty hours a week during the summer. Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never had any   33   , and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there     34     his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he replied to me with only a very gentle moving of his fingers. Mr. Gillespie was still in a coma（昏迷）.

   I left for a week to vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Gillespie was   35   . I didn’t have the courage to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might tell me he had died. So with many questions unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth-grade year.

   Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a    36    face. When I realized who it was, my eyes filled with    37   . He was alive! I asked him if his name was Mr. Gillespie, and if he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an    38    look on his face, he replied, “Yes”. I explained how I knew him, and that I had spent many hours talking with him in the hospital. With tears in his eyes, he gave me the warmest hug (拥抱)I had    39    received.

   He began to tell me how, as he    40    there comatose, he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an angle, not a person, who was there with him. Mr. Gillespie firmly believed that it was my voice and touch that had kept him    41   .

   Then he told me about his    42    and what happened to him to put him in the coma. We both cried for a while and exchanged a hug, said our good-byes and went our separate ways.

   Although I haven’t seen him since then, he    43    my heart with joy every day. I know that I made a difference between his life and his death. More important, he has made a great difference in    44    life. I will never forget him and what he did for me: he made me an angel.
