Dave Kroening: 我经营着小镇上最后一家录像店,我的顾客克里斯蒂娜患有唐氏综合症,每天都来租借她最喜欢的电影。由于经营困难,我不得不关闭录像店,但这对克里斯蒂娜来说是一个打击,因为这已经成为她生活中不可或缺的一部分。为了解决这个问题,我决定在我的便利店里腾出一个空间,专门为克里斯蒂娜提供她喜欢的电影,并尽可能地模拟录像店的氛围,让她能够继续保持她的日常习惯。我这样做只是想帮助一位忠实的顾客,以及她的母亲。 Toni Cavanaugh: 我的女儿克里斯蒂娜患有唐氏综合症,且大多不会说话。每天下午3点半去租录像带是她生活中不可或缺的一部分,这已经持续了20多年。录像店的关闭对克里斯蒂娜来说是一个巨大的打击,因为这已经融入到她生活的日常之中。Dave的善举让我们非常感动,他不仅理解了克里斯蒂娜的需求,更重要的是,他尊重克里斯蒂娜,把她当作一个正常人来看待。他所做的不仅仅是提供一个地方租电影,更是给予了我们希望和温暖。 Dave Kroening: 我经营着小镇上最后一家录像店,我的顾客克里斯蒂娜患有唐氏综合症,每天都来租借她最喜欢的电影。由于经营困难,我不得不关闭录像店,但这对克里斯蒂娜来说是一个打击,因为这已经成为她生活中不可或缺的一部分。为了解决这个问题,我决定在我的便利店里腾出一个空间,专门为克里斯蒂娜提供她喜欢的电影,并尽可能地模拟录像店的氛围,让她能够继续保持她的日常习惯。我这样做只是想帮助一位忠实的顾客,以及她的母亲。
