   The phone call came one cool winter day. I was  41  that my father was seriously ill.

   It had been long since I’d seen my father. Ever since his  42  from my mom, my father had lived alone in a small trailer(房车) in California, 500 miles away from me. The real  43  between us seemed so much greater. I was in no hurry to  44  that, but somehow I heard myself  45  to the owner of the trailer to be there the next day.

The whole drive down,  46  flashed through my mind. I remembered my father, the proud Marine. He made sure the first song I  47  was the Marine Hymn(《美国海*陆战队队歌》). He tore off the Christmas  48  all the decorations the rest of us had  49  and rehung them so there was  50  the same space between them. But we didn’t need to  51  those military orders, as we were not soldiers. I remembered  52  the battles he had with my mother. I remembered hoping to hear my father say  53  once, “I love you, Patty,” only to have him  54  at me, “You can’t do anything right!”

And now here I was standing outside his trailer, trying to  55  my courage to face him one more time. I knocked on the door, my hand and my whole body  56  . NO answer. Slowly I opened the door. I took a few 57 inside and stopped, too shocked to believe my eyes.

My father was sitting on his sofa, looking confused and crying. This wasn’t the  58  man I hand known growing up. He seemed broken.

A sense of  59  overtook me, and I knew what I had to do. He would be my father forever. Without  60  , I went back inside and packed up all of my father’s things. I would take him to my home-our home.
