“I have
cancer.”Mom
said and held me in a tight
hug.I
could feel her chest shaking as she tried not to cry but failed.
For all of my twenty-four
years
,my
mom had been
supportive.Strength
and protection had always flowed from her to
me.Now
I knew it would have to flow the other way.
Mom didn
’
t stay down for
long.After
the shock of breast-
cancer,she
armed herself with a notebook and a pen and a thousand questions for the
doctors.She
took notes on white blood cell counts and medications(
药物
)with long names as though she were studying for entrance exams into medical
school.”The
not-knowing is the
worst.”
she
said.
The operation was
successful.The
chemo(
化疗
)was the harder
part.I
went with Mom to every chemo
treatment.She
rarely
complained,though
her hair was gone and her toenails and fingernails fell out one by
one.She
joked that she could save money on nail polish and put it toward the doctor
bills,even
though she never wore nail
polish.”Cancer
can take my
hair
,my
nails,my
health,my
very life. But it can’t take my
smile.”Mom
said.
Mom learned to share her fears with
me
,and
it formed an even deeper bond between
us.Yet
I am certain there were fears she didn’t share because she was still protecting me-worries she only shared with
Dad.Even
in the darkest
hours,she
would just joke about the cancer. Mom always
said,”When
you look your greatest fear in the eye and laugh at
it
,you
take away some of its power.”
Mom was one of the lucky
ones.She
did beat her
cancer
,though
not without
scars.From
her,I’ve
learned I may not get to choose what I
face,but
I do get to choose how I face it.
4. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?
A
．
There were other ways to treat cancer.
B
．
Knowledge of cancer would be helpful.
C
