Thats probably why I am writing this, because it seems an easier way of telling you how thankful I am to you.When I first got ill two years ago and had to be taken to hospital, you were the first person I called to tell, maybe because I knew Mum wasnt going to answer her phone, but probably because you are the first person I call in an emergency.As one illness turned into another and I was stuck in hospital for weeks, feeling sorry for myself, you were still at my beside trying to talk to me to cheer me up. The illness hit my kidney(肾) and we then realized that I was going to need a transport sooner or later. You put yourself forward to be tested as soon as possible and it turned out you were a perfect match.Then last year, in March, we both went down for the operation. I woke a few hours afterwards and felt better. It wasnt until the following day that we got to see each other again. We hugged silently and asked one another how we were. But I never said the words I should have- thank you. To this day, I still havent said those words to you for my kidney.In the month after the operation, when we were both at home recovering, I made you lunch, went for walks with you. Its my way of saying that I care for you a great deal and that I am truly thankful for what you did for me.I want you to know that my silence towards you and the times you tried to talk to me and got nothing werent because of you. Maybe one day when you will read this, I hope you know that in my own silent way, I am for ever thankful.29 .
