Our families lived more than 450 miles away, so a few weeks before Thanksgiving one year, my husband and I decided to invite a guest over____the holiday. I called a senior center in the Dallas area and they____Ilse, a woman I imagined would be quiet and good-natured. When seeing her, I was wrong. Ilse was a stubborn 78 -year-old lady, who favored spending time at the center ____ she had her own apartment.
By the end of the Thanksgiving evening, we felt as if she were an old friend. Two weeks later, I invited her to lunch. The more time I spent with Ilse, the more she became like my grandma, always full of energy. Since I was the only one left in her life, I felt ____ for her. I soon became her personal Uber driver (minus the fee), and also helped her hire a ____. As the days went on, Ilse seemed more disconnected than before. Late one afternoon, she called from the emergency room to tell me she had ____ over her coffee table. After I got there, the doctor ____ she had suffered a mild stroke(中风).
During the next few days, I ____ by her apartment, sadly finding that she was so weak. And she was no longer the ____ Ilse I knew. At the end of the week, I received an early-morning call from her caregiver. “Please come over now,” her voice matter-of-fact. “She’s passed away.” But I was too shocked to cry.
The morning after Ilse’s death, I pulled her ____ out of my file cabinet. Ilse had____I take a copy of it a year earlier. I read through it and____when I saw my name. She had left me $ 50,000. I didn't____ her saying anything about that. ____, I would have insisted she donate the money to charity or give it to a friend she had known longer. Ilse was a friend I'd helped out of loyalty and____, not with the expectation of being paid. I opened an account in her honor. Over the next 20 years, Ilse's ____ grew and gave me the opportunity to____funds in her name to a cause she cared about deeply : children. Various families and charities____from her donations. It is beyond my expectation that a____I’d taken years before when I placed a call to the senior center and meet Ilse made my life richer and made me have a new understanding of____.
