Teddy is a black dog. To my eyes, she’s a dog of exceptional beauty, and we’ve been together for nearly fifteen years. Teddy and I joy and sorrow with each other. I have never that Teddy would give her life for me without the slightest . I have always our relationship by saying, “We are completely bonded.” I have no idea true this statement was until I was diagnosed with cancer.
Through the stages of my from three operations, Teddy stayed near me, watching my every move. She was clearly anxious and upset when I felt or distressed. I had been able to many of the difficulties so far---the loss of body parts, the side of medication---but the thought of losing my long hair during chemo (化疗) made me . Over a three-week period, handful of hair separated from my itchy scalp (发痒的头皮). Each brought me greater distress. One evening，I sat in a rocking chair, touching my hair and crying sadly. Teddy lay on the floor beside me; suddenly she began to pull at the fur（毛皮） on her tail. I could stop her, she had ripped (扯) out a few clumps（团）.
Teddy’s stopped my tears and self-pity. The next morning, I found Teddy sleeping in a mass of long black hair, no doubt with considerable pain. Her beautiful black now looked like a funny little rat’s tail. Then Teddy looked up at me with her devoted little face. It was she was willing me to feel better. I could almost hear her saying, “If you have to lose your hair, I’m going to lose mine, too.”
Teddy and I both appeared a bit that summer. In the fall, when her winter coat came in, Teddy’s tail quickly began to look better. My hair a bit longer to return, but I never about it again. Sharing my loss with Teddy took the sadness away.

, the disastrous effects of the drought were felt all over our county. It was a challenging time for everyone, Dad remained optimistic. He to be grateful for other things like good health and food on our plate. Only then did I truly begin to Dad and his faith that guided us through the hard times.

He always puts our happiness his own, and never fails to cheer me on at my sports games his exhaustion（疲劳） after long days.
