But I d like you to pass to your mom a story which is well known to every Chinese. Long long time ago, an old farmer lost his only horse. He cried for the loss for a long time. Soon after, the army recruited soilders from young people of his village. Since his family had no horse, his son was exempted from the recruitment, which means his son can avoid dying in war . So the saying is " For the fact that the old man lost horse, no one could tell it is a bad fortune" . Each time when I faced troubles, I repeated this saying. I hope it can be little helpful to you. I hope your mom can recover ASAP. God will bless your mom. Please keep us posted! Forrest Dear Rebecca,
