When I was 14 years old, a neighbor's child was diagnosed with a heart condition. The mother and father would never even entertain the fact of letting anyone babysit her. One day I asked if I could see the new baby and when I did all the wires and tubes, then machines beeping did not overwhelm me. The father was surprised, and asked me why wasn't I afraid? After telling Fred about my life so far with my handicapped brother he instantaneously asked me if I would babysit her. For the next 6 years, I was her babysitter. I also have a handicapped brother.
