There was a story of a little girl named Liza who was suffering from a
disease and needed blood from her five-year-old brother, who had
miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies
needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her
little brother, and asked the boy if he would be willing to give his
blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a
deep breath and saying,
“Yes, I’ll do it if it will save Liza.”
As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheeks. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, “Will I start to die right away?” Being young, the boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give her all his blood.
“Yes, I’ll do it if it will save Liza.”

Thorn sokheng---- I think that this is a one of interesting stories and a funny story as well. I really admire this boy who can devote his blood to save his sister. In addition, he didn't fear of spending his life event though he knows he would die after his blood transfusion. Actually, the boy confused he had to spend all his blood for her.

Yeah, I think so too. Yet, confusing that he has donate all his blood for his sister makes a great point in here. The boy did show his unconditional love and care for his sister. Moreover, sacrifice is an obedient unto one's death. A great story, indeed! :)
That right,we are family so we must keep her life. why i say that? because if she illness all member must worried about her if the boy help her because he don't want to see his parent worried.on an other hand because it a family spirit.
It is a great story because he just a little boy, but he can know how to help other people. He can do everything for saving his sister's life. IT can show that if we have brother and sister, it is a lucky life because when someone in our family face with the problem, we can help each other.
It's fantastic story, only a little boy is also help his sister. But it's seem strange a little bit why a small boy can help his sister's life because like we've known already children can not transfer the to help the life because they are too small,but in this story he can. I also admire him, when someone in his family has problem with need blood, he dare to it to her to save her life.
Yes, I think so, He's just a boy but look like strong men. He said “Yes, I’ll do it if it will save Liza.” Even though he knows he would die after his blood going to have to give her all his blood. A great story.;D
