Mrs Hong, Mrs Cren's mother in law, she could not walk and she was using a wheelchair. Her legs gave up years ago, and her eyesightr was not so good, which is why she liked to have someone to read to her. The rest of her was in full working order.

(Connection) My grandmother, Chrysoulla, was very ill a few months ago. She had a stroke and since then she cannot move her left hand and her left leg. She stays most of the time in bed and she moves only with a wheelchair. As she can't move her hand, she always needs someone to push her wheelchair. Our maid Siti, is staying with her and helping her a lot. I visit my grandmother very often and, because her house is not very fat from ours, when I have free time I always try to see her. I sit down next to her and we chat a lot, I tell her about how well i'm going at school, that I met new friends, I do my homework and what I do at ballet. I don't read books to her, but we play a lot of card games. together, and sometimes I let her win and make her laugh and feel happy. The happiest moments are when she calls me over and we all have pizza, and I do hope she will get better and start to walk again.

In the kitchen  Lu Si-yan was cutting vegetables and she cut herself deeply, a stain of blood fell on the floor, and she didn't know what to do, so she quickly got a kitchen cloth and wrapped it around her hand.

(Connection) When I was about 11 years old, I was cutting up some carrots and my hand slipped and I cut myself really bad, I didn't know what to do, so I looked around me trying to find something to wrap my hand. My mum came into the kitchen asking what happened to me, so i told her that i cut myself really bad so my mum and i went to the hospital to stitch it up and it was better in a few days.
