Question

I was sleeping for over a week after a traffic accident. The only sounds that could be heard were coming from the machines that were  36   me alive.

All my family members were   37   ways to wake me up from my silence.

Greg, my brother – in – law,  38   to take some of my songs I had recently recorded to a local radio station,   39   he explained about my illness. He told them he was  40 I could hear what was going on around me and that he knew having my own songs   41   on the radio had been a huge dream of mine. This would definitely  42   me and do more than any medicine or machine could.

The radio station agreed to help and gave him a specific date and time   43  he could have a radio “  44  ” at my hospital bed. Greg’s decision had filled everyone with 45   and now the moment arrived. Nervous from expectation, all my family members  46   hands and watched over me hoping for a   47  .

The DJ made a pre – song announcement about my   48   to the general audience, and then spoke directly to me.

“Shelly, this is for you. I want you to really listen now. This is not just   49   song we’re playing, but your family’s song of hope. All of us at KKDJ wish you a speedy   50  .”

Everyone in the room held their breath and watched  51   as the music began. Later they all witnessed the tears  52   down my pale cheeks. Though still not awake, it was obvious I heard my song.

Just a few days later, hope turned into   53  . I did in fact awake. Though not   54   unscathed (未受伤的), I did not suffer from the disabilities that had been predicted.
