A GLASS OF MILK One day, a poor boy, who was a door to door salesman to pay for their studies at the university, he found in his pocket only a dime and he was hungry. He decided to visit the next house he asked for something to eat, but the emotion betrayed him when he opened the door a comely lady. Instead of something to eat, he asked for a glass of water. She thought that the young man looked hungry, so brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, then asked, How much do I?. You do not owe me anything, she said. My mother taught us that we must always be charitable with those who need us. He said, Then I thank you from the heart. When Howard Kelly left that house, he was relieved not only physically, but also more optimistic and confident. He was about to give up and leave school because of his poverty. A few years later, she became very ill. The local doctors were concerned. In the end, they sent in the big city. They called for a consultation Dr. Howard Kelly. When he heard the name of the town she came from the patient, as he had a pleasant feeling. Immediately, he went up to the room from the lobby of the hospital and went to see her in a white coat. Whims of fate, it was her, recognized her immediately. He returned to his studio determined to do everything possible to save her life. From that day on, he followed the case with great care. The situation was very serious, but the care of Dr Kelly had the better: after a long struggle, the battle was won. When the patient was out of danger, Dr. Kelly asked the administrative office of the hospital to send him to approve the invoice with the total expenditure. He rechecked, signed it and sent it to the room of the patient. When the lady saw the bill, he was afraid to look at her, because he knew he would have to work the rest of his life to pay the bill of an intervention that complicated. Finally opened it, and something caught her attention. On the sidelines of the bill read these words: Welded many years ago with a glass of milk. Signed, Dr. Howard Kelly. His eyes filled with tears of joy, his heart was glad and blessed the doctor for having given life.
