Dad’s second marriage was      and my stepmother had      us both out of the house the previous week. Dad had no      what to do with me. And that’s when my other family      .

Barbara and Roland Beach took me into their home      their only daughter, Su, my best friend, asked them to. I     with them for the next seven years.

Barb washed my skirts the same as Su’s. She      I had lunch money, doctors’ appointments, help with homework and nightly hugs. Barbara and Roland attended every football game where Su and I were being cheerleaders.       I could tell, for the Beaches there was no      between Su and me; I was their daughter, too.

When Su and I      college they kept my room the same for the entire four years I attended school. Recently, Barb presented me with an insurance policy they bought when I first moved in with them and had continued to pay on for 23 years.

The Beaches knew      about me when they took me in – they had heard the whole story from Su. When I was seven, my mother died and from then on my father relied on other people to     his kids. Before I went to live with the Beaches I had believed that life was entirely      and that love was shaky and untrustworthy. I had believed that the only person who would take care of me was me.

the Beaches, I would have become a bitter, cynical (愤世嫉俗的) woman. They gave me a(n) ________ that allowed me to grow and change. They kept me from being paralyzed by my       , and they gave me the confidence to open my heart.

I      family. For me, it wasn’t the family that was there on the day I was      , but the one that was there for me when I was living in a Howard Johnson’s on Interstate 10.
