    When I was in seventh grade, I was a candy striper （护士助手）at a local hospital in my town. I volunteered about 30 to 40 hours a week during the summer.

    Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Green. He never has any visitors, and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he responded with only an occasional hold of my hand. Mr. Green was in a coma （昏迷）.

    I left for a week for a vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Green was gone. 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 eighth­grade year.

    Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face.

    He began to tell me how, as he lay there comatose, he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time.
