Only the left foot, still write the wonderful life


Only the left foot, still writes the wonderful life of the text / Duan Huiqun He grew up in Dublin, Ireland, when he was born, his limbs are sound, but he is so embarrassed that he can't move. He has a very serious cerebral palsy, the pronunciation is not accurate, and only the left foot can move up and down. When he was 7 years old, he was in a wheelchair and went to the park with his family. Several children are drawing pictures in the game. He stares at them with envious eyes. He yells, "I will not leave." A child seems to understand what he meant, and laughed loudly: "You can't even say anything, you can't draw good things. Don't yell at us!"
He left sadly and returned home. In order to let his sister know what he meant, he grabbed a piece of chalk from her left foot and tried to draw it, but he was not good at painting. My sister stayed with him and encouraged him to say: "I believe that you can draw well. God only temporarily disarmed you, so that you can't paint like other children, but if you take the time to practice, you can draw wonderful things. The paintings come. As long as there is a dream, everything can be done."
He grew up and has been diligently learning to draw and write with his left foot. His family is convinced that his intelligence has no obstacles, just that he cannot communicate with others. The family made up their minds to let him live as normal as possible, so he put him in the cart and took him around to let him know more about the world outside. His left foot was more and more flexible by him, and he actually learned to swim. At home, he always concentrates on painting and he begins to learn to write. His toes were often worn out, but he continued to practice with pain; his manuscript was a lot of rejections, but he was not discouraged. He has progressed from one failure to another, and his enthusiasm has not diminished. He told himself to support one more day, one week, one month, and another one year. Slowly he discovered that he had great enthusiasm. When his paintings were awarded in the city, and the debut "My Left Foot" was released after many revisions, he felt that his vision was opened. It turned out that life is full of possibilities. He believes that there will be a better life ahead. .
He tasted the joy of writing and drawing, and he was out of control. Although he draws a picture every time, he writes an article, he is very hard, his feet are worn out of blood, he often receives a rejection, but he never gives up, he wants to embrace every opportunity.
His mother, with the help of a doctor, sent him to Johns Hopkins Hospital where he received good treatment. He especially respected the great doctor who later founded a hospital for him and other cerebral palsy, and introduced him to the literary world. He was greatly encouraged by several well-known Irish writers who encouraged him to create. At the age of 27, he spent a lot of effort writing the novel "The Days of Low Tide." What is exciting is that once the novel was published, it was ranked first in the best-selling novel list, and was adapted into a movie, starring Daniel Day Louis, who also won the Oscar for Best Actor Award. He later published six books, and he was also an active painter.
His name is Christie Brown, and he has heard that he has become a well-known writer, poet and painter with only his left foot moving and only a few voices. Many people are very surprised. In the diary, Kristian wrote: "As my sister taught me, as long as the effort is deep, nothing can be done! In the storm, be brave and firm; in the dark, you must grit your teeth. In the face of the desert, the heart must be filled with an oasis. Only like a cockroach, experience pain, never give up, will be able to fly to the sky! Children in wheelchairs should try everything."
