The story of hope:The story of Donald Floyd York 2000-2015
When I was two and a half my little brother was born but he was not an ordinary baby he has special needs when he was born he had to be put in a incubator I could not touch him all I could do is talk to him and see him . I was scared and sad but I had hope. Hope is a very powerful word. But I also had love. I love is a powerful word as well. The doctors said he would only live to be a year old if we were lucky. When I heard this I was in tears. I was on my knees when I got home all I thought about is what to do. I went up to the hospital almost everyday from the time I got home from school till around 9:00 at night. But even still all I could think about was what the doctor had said. But I had hope my hope was that he would live longer than a year. And I was right now he is eight he is happy and cheerful.7-23-2009 now when I am sad he can always make me laugh. He is an inspiration and an influence. When he is sick I can always cheer him up. When he’s sad I can cheer him up. He is a very big influence and inspiration on me. He’s inspired me to do the right things. He’s inspired me to help others no matter what they have done to me. He has also taught me to keep hope and love. And to be strong no matter what. He has taught me to never give up no matter how hard times get. He has inspired me to write this story. The first story you heard when my brother was born till he was eight. Now he is nine he is still working on walking and is still brave and strong he is still giving me hope and cheering me up when I am sad. He has a walker to help him walk. He is my best friend I will cherish every moment with him. I will never give up because he never gives up. He has fought against death and shall live forever . He is an angel that came from heaven to protect everyone he touches. He makes the world spin. He makes the flowers grow. And seasons change and life goes on and the sun rises.3-8-2010 The last story was when he was eight my brother is now fourteen and has went through a lot he has been through a total of at least twenty to thirty surgeries so far and has fought through them all he has no hip bones and has had many other surgeries I have watched him as he ages watched him cry and watched him laugh we have grown a lot closer over the years even when life gets in the way there is always time for him I think about him everyday and every night he cries when I am gone for long times away from home we went to camp together during the summer of this year I was good to be at a camp and know that he is only a walk away he has not been able to walk yet I still have hope he will he is bedridden right now due to the hip after surgery he got a infection and is now not allowed to go outside or leave the house other than to go to the doctors office he is still happy but is in severe pain I wish I could help him but I know that I can not help other than to help him and talk him through it he keeps me strong everyday while I am at school.
