    I believe in miracles(奇迹)because I've seen so many of them. One day, a patient was referred to me who was one hundred and two years old. “There’s a  36   in my upper jaw,”she said. “I told my own dentist it's nothing, but he   37   I come to see you.”

Her eighty-year-old son accompanied her. He would    38   to add something, but she stopped him. She wanted to tell everything herself. I found a large cancer that spread over much of the    39   of her mouth. A careful examination later   40  that it was a particularly bad sort of cancer.

    During her next appointment, I explained to her the   41  of the problem. She clasped my hand in hers and said, “I know you’re worried about me, but I’m just  42 . ”

    I thought otherwise. After considerable   43   on my part, and kindness on her part because she wanted to   44   me, she agreed to have me refer her to a cancer surgeon(外科医生). She saw him, but as I expected,    45   treatment.

    About six months later she returned to my office, still energetic and   46   .

  “How are you?”I asked.

  “I’m just fine, honey, ”she responded  47  high spirits.“When can I get started on fixing my dentures(假牙)?”

       Surprised to see her at all, I answered   48   ,“Let me take a look in your mouth and we’ll see about it. ”

       I couldn’t believe my eyes. The cancer that had   49  nearly the entire roof of her mouth was gone—only one small area of redness    50   .

       I had read of such things happening, but had    51   seen them with my own eyes. That was my first miracle. Since then I've seen many others, because they keep getting   52   to see. In fact, miracles are daily events for me now. And people are a miracle,   53   through them we have a chance to know ourselves and to   54   the miracles of one another.

       Since my first miracle, I've come to understand that the time and place for a miracle is 55 we choose to find it.
