A (2020·天津5月卷·B)
One of the most stressful days of Susan McFrederick's life was watching her son get wheeled away for surgery hours after he was born in 2011.
But after the operationSusan burst into tears for a different reasonacross the cut on their newborn son's back was a sweet winter scenehand­drawn on his bandages(绷带).
There were rolling hills of snowa pine tree and a snowman with a hat and broomshe recalled.It was extremely touching and comforting to know that somebody had taken the time to do that for my family.It was a moment I'll never forget.
Susan soon learned the artist was her son's surgeonRobert Parrywho discovered another way to use his hands in the mid­1980s during hisreaction order internship (实习期) at a children's medical centerwhere he saw one of his colleagues cut out heart and shark shapes to decorate children's bandages.
My first reaction was'What is he doingHeythat's kind of neat'” Parry recalled.“I especially liked the reactions of the parents and the patients when they saw his artwork. The smiles took everyone's attention from the surgery. Then I decided to follow suit.
Parry quickly graduated from his early hearts and sharksand started to surprise families with drawings that captured young patients' personalities. From Snoopy to Spider­Man and bears to butterfliesthere isn't much he hasn't drawn. Most kids want superheroessports team logos or princesseswhile babies often receive scenes with flowerstrees and sea
creatures. During the last 30 yearsParry estimates he has left examples of his handiwork over the stitches (伤口缝线) of more than 10000 children.
During a time of stress for familiesit's nice to be able to help them smile and laughParry said.“This is something positive that I can do for themwhich is what I like most about it.
For Parrythe reward is knowing he hopefully made a difference in a child's life, and except for his drawings on bandagesthey can go on and live their lives and never know I was in ithe said.
He's not ready to retirebut he's found a new hobby to keep his hands skillful in the years to come.
I've taken up knitting (编织)Parry said.“HatssweatersglovesI enjoy it all.But mostlyI enjoy giving everything away.”
