Cameron used a camera to record the time his family spent with the "penguins", which caused a heated discussion on social media. Later, "New York Times" bestselling author Bradley Trevor Greive (Bradley Trevor Greive) wrote their story as "Penguin Bloom."
It is not just a collection of photos, but a realistic record of the happiness of a family, the great changes, and the regaining of life. The story began with the love between the two. He described his wife Sam when he first met: "She is small, courageous, and beautiful."
From childhood to youth, to becoming a wife, Cameron used a lot of pen and ink to describe Sam's special, strong, confident, reserved, and the encouragement and warmth she gave him. The sweet time is like yesterday in Cameron's pen.
Then came the accident. Huge pain, long repairs, despair and sadness that hit from time to time... Sam has experienced unimaginable physical and mental torture, and Cameron and his three children are also silently enduring another kind of torment. .
Although he can't empathize with him, Cameron tells everyone that what can be given between people is deep understanding, firm love and action of love.
Sam wrote a long letter to the reader at the end of the book, writing his true feelings, and giving some detailed advice to other people who have suffered misfortune and relatives and friends around him. she says:
Trying as many new things as possible is the key to letting the emptiness collapse and making your new world wider and wider. You must be prepared for this: Since it is an attempt, there will be success and failure. For any result, you have to accept it frankly.

One criterion for measuring the level of recovery is whether you have reached the level where you can take on certain responsibilities and not only take care of yourself. Taking care of the sick little penguin gave me amazing gains, and the process of taking care of it to regain strength and independence has greatly helped me in many ways. As long as I have the ability, I will strive to be a person who others can rely on, rather than a person who always depends on others.
It is this desire to help others, hopes and dreams for future life, that light up their souls.
Love can hurt people, or it can make you reborn.
