Until the Cartilage Worn Out

Until the Cartilage Worn Out I had pain on my knees for two weeks, and afterwards I had trouble walking. Walking down the steps the pain came more severely, so at last, I called my husband walking ahead of me. “I’ve told you to go to the hospital.” At first, I thought it would soon pass away. As time went by, I was scared to go to the hospital thinking that it might be a serious illness. However, now that I had unbearable pain every time I took a step, I couldn’t postpone. Fortunately, there weren’t any symptoms showing up, it was just that my left knee looked a little bit swollen. “Your knee cartilage is torn. It doesn’t need a surgery at this moment, we just need to watch. I will give you the pain reliever, take them for a week, and if it shows no improvement, come back.” The doctor said with a remote expression on his face. “Be careful not to walk for a long time or do something while kneeling down, or it will get worse.” Taking the prescribed medicine I got from the hospital for three days, the pain completely disappeared. Stretching out my knees, watching if the swelling of my knees has subsided, it recalled what the doctored said. ‘Be careful not to walk for a long time or to do something while kneeling down, or it will get worse.’ At that moment, there was a scratch of pain in my heart that was more painful than my torn knee cartilage. ‘Oh, Heavenly Mother. She prays for us day and night all day without rest. Her knees, not only torn, but worn out almost disappeared, how painful would She be....’ After hurting my own knees, one in a ten thousand I could understand how painful she would be taking step after step. How can we repay mother's love. It's not enough in this life or life to come. But very least we can do is devote our whole life to make her receive glory from the whole over the world. And go back to heaven very soon!
