The Person Who Had an Influence on My Life

A person who had a positive influence on my life

Almost everyday of everyone life is experience.In my whole life I have gained and still make new experiences.There is always a time in one’s life,when a hero comes along.Somebody who has inspired you and helped you to learn what life is about.
I remember it as it was yesterday,surprisingly as my state of mind on that cold January night can be described only of numbness and confusion.It was around eight o’clock p.m when my mother received a phone call from her brother who told her that her cousin had just recently been admitted into the hospital,after experiencing difficulty breathing and chest pain.When she was diagnosed with heart attack,my family became worried.A surger had informed us that she needed surgery immediately.
While my aunt spent her time in the hospital with special care,my cousin Aram who is mentally disabled,spent time with our family.Aram was fifteen at that time and had been born with severe mental disorders,which created a wide range of social and physical obstacles for him throughout everyday life.He couldn’t do things like walk,brush his teeth or go to the bathroom on his own.He never had any true friend because no one could relate to him and he was so different from the others.I must admit that first I was filled with a great deal of uncertainty as to how much of a burden my cousin would bring to my family,and looking back it saddens me to see the ignorance I displayed.I was very angry that I had to spend my all free time with him.
But over the two weeks that Aram lived with my family,I probably learned more about life and its meanings.I never even thought about being able to do simple things by my own.Now I see how lucky I am to be able to do these things independently.
Aram is my hero for my chance to have been able to live with him for two weeks,has forever changed my perspective on life. 3-15 Kalashyan Lusine
