The love of a child

Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at Stanford
Hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who was suffering
from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared
to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year old brother, who had
miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the
antibodies, needed to combat the illness.

The doctor explained the
situation to her little brother, and asked the boy if he would
be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for
only a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, "Yes, I'll do
it if it will save Liz."


As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed
next to his sister and He looked up at the doctor and asked with a
trembling voice, "Will I start to die right away?" Being young, the
boy had misunderstood the doctor;

He thought he was going to have to give his sister ALL of his blood.
