Little Annie, As They Called Her, Was In A ...

Little Annie, as they called her, was in a sanctorum. Anne Sullivan had lost everyone that loved her. She was almost blind and was very sickly. Her behavior was like an animal. She was even kept in a cage or isolated from the others most of the time.

--On occasions, she would violently attack the person who came into her cage. At other times, she would completely ignore them.

--There was a nurse old enough to have been retired that started visiting her. Little Annie gave no indication that she was even aware of her presence.

--One day, the elderly nurse brought some brownies to the dungeon and left them outside the cage. Little Annie gave no hint she knew they were there, but when the nurse returned the next day, the brownies were gone.

--From that time on, the nurse would bring brownies when she made her Thursday visit.

--Soon after, the doctors in the institution noticed a change was taking place.

--After a period of time they decided to move Little Annie upstairs.

--Finally, the day came when the "hopeless case" was told she could return and live with some of her relative.

--But Little Annie did not wish to leave. She chose to stay, to help others the rest of her life. http://www.ezillustrator.com/
