地球为你而转吗

Did The Earth Move For You?

Eleven-year-old Angela was stricken with a debilitating disease involving her nervous system. she was unable to walk and her movement was restricted in other ways as well. the doctorsdid not hold out much hope of her ever recovering from this illness. 

They predicted she dspend the rest of her life in a wheelchair. They said that few, if any, were able to come back tonormal after contracting this disease. the little girl was undaunted. There, lying in her hospitalbed, she would vow to anyone who d listen that she was definitely going to be walking againsomeday.

She was transferred to a specialized rehabilitation hospital in the San Francisco Bay area. Whatever therapies could be applied to her case were used. The therapists were charmed by herundefeatable spirit. They taught her about imaging - about seeing herself walking. If it woulddo nothing else, it would at least give her hope and something positive to do in the long wakinghours in her bed. 

Angela would work as hard as possible in physical therapy, in whirlpools andin exercise sessions. But she worked just as hard lying there faithfully doing her imaging, visualizing herself moving, moving, moving!

One day, as she was staining with all her might to imagine her legs moving again, it seemed asthough a miracle happened: The bed moved! It began to move around the room! Shescreamed out, "Look what I m doing! Look! Look! I can do it!

I moved, I moved!"

Of course, at this very moment everyone else in the hospital was screaming, too, and runningfor cover. People were screaming, equipment was falling and glass was breaking. You see, it wasthe recent San Francisco earthquake. But don t tell that to Angela. She s convinced that shedid it. 

And now only a few years later, she s back in school. You see, anyone who can shake theearth between San Francisco and Oakland can conquer a piddling little disease, can they?
