在你年幼无知时,当你的一位亲人,比如父母或兄弟是残疾人,你一定或多或少地感到尴尬,甚至羞辱。长大后你却发现,他(她)身体虽残,但在精神及情感等方面比常人可能更健全。本文作者 Jo Worsley 孩提时代因嫉妒而憎恨他智残得近乎植物人的弟弟。后来,由于治疗及母亲的精心照料,他的弟弟实际上变得很聪明,能读书、写字、打台球,而且对他人有一种不同的爱。这使作者重新评价他所知的所谓正常而又得体的举止言行。 When you are young and ignorant, when one of your relatives, such as a parent or brother, is a disabled person, you must feel more or less embarrassed or even humiliated. When you grow up, you realize that although he or she is physically weak, he may be more physically and emotionally than ordinary people. Jo Worsley, the author of this article, was kidnapped by his childhood because of his jealousy and almost botanical brother. Later, his brother became physically smart, able to read, write, play billiards, and had a different love for others due to treatment and mother’s meticulous care. This allows the author to re-evaluate what he knows as normal and decent demeanor.
