不管未来怎样，我都要过得快乐。
My name is Judy and I am doing a GoFundMe campaign for my mom, everyone knows her as, Kelly.
我叫朱迪，我为我妈妈参加了一个“去找到我”的活动，每个人都因此认识她，凯利。

从她被隔离有一段时间开始，她就一直卧床。

Up to this point, with what we have raised, we have been able to pay some of the bills so far including one of the rehab center bills. Yeah!

【篇二】简单好读的英语短文范文
I grew up very poor and with a single mom in the throws of addiction. Often there was no money for food, and I was hungry a lot.
我从小家境贫寒，只有一个吸毒成瘾的妈妈。我们经常没钱买吃的，我总是饥肠辘辘。
On my fifth birthday (1986), a couple close family members were invited to go to a park to celebrate my birthday. No cake, no presents, not a problem. Except for my auntie. She had an envelope in her hand.
在我5岁生日时(1986年)，几个亲戚被邀请到一个公园给我过生日。没有蛋糕、没有礼物、也没有任何问题。只有我的姑姑是个例外，她手里拿着一个信封。
Before everyone sang happy birthday, I saw a little boy, probably my age, and a woman, digging in the park dumpster for food. Something happened to me. I begged my mom to invite them to my party but my mother was not a fan of strangers. She said no.
在大家唱生日快乐歌之前，我看到一个小男孩，年纪大概和我相仿，还有一个女的，他们在公园的垃圾箱里找吃的。我突发奇想，请求妈妈邀请他们来我的生日聚会，但妈妈不喜欢陌生人，她没同意。
I was intrigued, I didn't know others struggled like me, it hurt my heart. I watched them as everyone sang. I watched them when my auntie handed me an envelope. I watched them as I opened it until I saw the contents, a crisp 100 dollar bill. My mother was enraged that my auntie would give me such a large amount of money. I think my auntie trusted me more than my mother with cash.
我被他们吸引了，我不知道还有人跟我一样挣扎着过日子，这使我的心很疼。大家唱歌时我看着他们，姑姑递给我信封时我看着他们，我打开信封时依旧看着他们，突然我发信封里装着一张褶皱的100美元纸币。妈妈很生气姑姑竟然给我这么多钱，我觉着在花钱方面姑姑比妈妈更信任我。
We were poor, I didn't eat 3 days a week, I had a very hard childhood. But I had never dug in a dumpster for food.
我们很穷，一个星期里有3天吃不上饭，我的童年过得很苦，但从来没有翻垃圾箱找吃的。
My auntie kept talking over my mother, telling me, I can do ANYTHING I want with that money. So I did. I walked to the dumpster to the boy and his mother. I explained to the boy that it was my birthday and my one present was a $100, and I wanted to give it to them. There were so many tears and thank yous.
姑姑一直在说服妈妈，她告诉我我能随意支配这笔钱，所以我就自己拿主意了。我朝垃圾箱旁边的男孩和他妈妈走过去，我向男孩解释说那天是我的生日，我收到了 $100的礼物，我想把钱给他们。他们感动得痛哭流涕，说了很多感谢的话。
I, and my auntie, understood how powerful it was to give the only money I've ever seen away. My mother never did. I paid dearly for the action that night. But it was worth it.
我和姑姑理解把自己见过的的钱给别人对自己有多大影响，妈妈却从未有过这种感觉。那天晚上我为自己的行为付出了巨大的代价，但一切都值得。
I think about that boy and his mother often.
我经常会想起那个男孩和他的妈妈。

A few years ago I had purchased another car since my old one was not going to last long.
几年前我的旧车不能用了，我就买了一辆新车。
I still had my old car and had not gotten rid of it yet when this happened.
但那时我还留着旧车，没有把它处理掉。
Each day I would drive to the next town and park my new car in a residential area and walk a few blocks to get to work.
每天我都会开车去旁边的镇上，把新车停在一个居民区，步行几条街去上班。
On the way, I noticed this one car that was identical to my old car except for different color and that it also had one missing hub cap.

One morning that week, I took a hubcap off of my old car and put it on this car that needed one and walked off.
