I was invited to a doctor’s meeting at the Ruth Hospital. In one of the rooms a
patient, an old man, got up from his bed and moved slowly towards me. I could
see that he hadn’t long to live, but he came up to me and placed his right foot
close to mine on the floor.
“Frank!” I cried in surprise. He couldn’t answer, as I knew, but
he tried to smile, all the time keeping his foot close to mine.
My thoughts raced back more than thirty years - to the dark days of 1941, when I was a
student in London. The scene was an air-raid shelter (防空洞), in which I and about a hundred other
people slept every night. Among them were Mrs West and her son Frank, who lived
nearby. Sharing wartime problems, we got to know each other very well. Frank
interested me because he was not normal. He had never been normal, ever since
he was born. His mother told me he was 37 then, but he had less of a mind than
a baby has. Mrs West, then about 75, was a strong, able woman, as she had to
be, of course, because Frank depended on her completely. He needed all the
attention of a baby.
One night a policeman came into our shelter and told Mrs West that
her house had been all destroyed. That wasn’t quite true, because the Wests
went on living there for quite some time. But they certainly lost nearly
everything they owned.
When that kind of thing happened, the rest of us helped the
unlucky ones. So before we separated that morning, I stood beside Frank and
measured my right foot against his.
They were about the same size. That night, then, I took a spare
pair of shoes to the shelter for Frank. As soon as he saw me, he came running - and paced his right foot against mine.
After that, he always greeted me in the same way.
