In a few minutes I was being examined by a dentist who said, “Hmm!” as he examined my teeth. “Your teeth are in bad .”

Growing up for me was a challenge. I started out at primary school and was always asked by my teacher to sit at the 36 of the class because I was a fool.
I kept 37 things: I forgot nursery songs and spellings. I was the 38 of class jokes and I was all alone and 39 . I hated school, but my dad would hear none of it. He kept telling me I was a 40 , if I believed it.
A 41 around came one day when I remembered the 42 of the word “Cognoscenti”; a word all the other “ 43 students ” had forgotten how to spell 44 they spent their free time making fun of me. I wasn’t asked to spell, 45 I raised up my hand. So I stood up and went to the front of class, 46 23 pairs of eyes staring at me. My teacher grabbed her stick, ready to hit me if I’d 47_ . I wrote the letters, spelt the word and became an instant champion. Afterwards, I 48 and won, for my school, five Spelling Bee championships.
Secondary school had its own share of challenges. I was a tall kid and wasn’t good at any 49 , except looking. I loved basketball and tennis. 50 I held a bat(球拍), I was laughed at by my opponent. He 51 six straight sets(盘，局) without sweat and there I was, sweating like I’d run a marathon, whereas I hadn’t even 52 a single point. My dad’s 53 kept playing in my ears “Stanley, you’re a champion if you believe it.”
Believe it I did, because I wasn’t only good at tennis and basketball, I was an all-round athlete and 54 won both athletic and 55 scholarships to university.

Dear son,
The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health, have patience and try to understand me．
If I get dirty when eating, if I can not dress, have patience and remember the hours I 36 teaching it to you．If, when I speak to you, I 37 the same things thousand and one times, do not 38 me, listen to me．When you were small, I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story 39 you got to sleep．When I do not want to have a 40 , neither shame me nor scold me．Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I 41 , in order that you wanted to bathe．When you see my 42 little about new technologies, give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking(嘲弄) smile．I taught you 43 to do so many things: to eat good, to dress well, to confront life…．When at some moment I lose the memory or the 44 of our conversation, let me have the necessary time to remember, and if I cannot do it, do not become nervous, as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you and to have you 45 to me．
If ever I do not want to eat, do not force me．I know well 46 I need to and when not．When my 47 legs do not allow me to walk, give me your 48 , the same way I did when you gave your first 49 ．And when someday I say to you that I do not want to 50 any more ---- that I want to rest forever, do not get angry．Someday you will understand．
Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived．Some day you will discover that, 51 my mistakes, I always wanted the 52 thing for you and that I tried to prepare the way for you．You must not feel sad, angry or impotent(无可奈何) for seeing me 53 you．You must be next to me, try to understand me and to help me as I did it when you 54 living．Help me to walk, help me to end my way with love and 55 ．I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you．
I love you, Son．
Your father
