their mind when they were given more 58 on cornea donation.
“I can’t imagine what I’d be 59 now without the transplant, but I certainly wouldn’t be a

think about donating their corneas.”

When I was a child my father taught me five words that I’ve used all my life—in my acting
career, as a mother, in my business activities. If I 36 that I was afraid of the dark, or if I seemed
worried about meeting new people, Dad would say, “Stand porter to your 37 .”
A porter is a gatekeeper, who stands at a door 38 people in or out. Dad would get me to 39
myself stopping destructive things—such as fear—at the door, 40 saying “Come in” to faith, love
and self-assurance.
As a(n) 41 , before I went on camera, I’d make sure anxiety stayed out and confidence in my
ability came in. As a mother, when I was 42 about my children, I would try not to let worry in but
would 43 my mind with trust in them.
Of course, there were always times I’d 44 those words.
In 1972 my husband, Fillmore Crank, and I opened the doors to our own 45 in North
Hollywood. This was a new business venture for us, and it was a lot more 46 and complicated
than we had 47 .
We were on call 24 hours a day. Something was always going 48 . Electricity went on the
blink, food wasn’t delivered, employees called in sick. Once, a flu epidemic 49 left us with no
maids. Fillmore gave me a 50 : scrub floors or do the laundry. For 10 days I folded enough king-
size sheets to 51 the whole state of California.
Then there was the 52 crisis. The price of gasoline doubled, and tourism in California 53 .
How could we fill our beds? What if we kept losing money? What if we failed? Fear and worry were
sneaking in. But I caught them just 54 . I stood porter.
I stood in the door of my mind and sent fear packing.
These days at the hotel, whenever fear tries to 55 , I just smile and point to the sign that reads

To increase his schoolteacher's income, my dad worked as a shopping assistant. Dad could run
his pencil down a long list of 21 recording the prices of what customers bought and quickly
arrive at the 22 sum, never getting the total cost wrong.
Later on, the store 23 , and Dad had another occupation as a taxi driver. His three 24 had
one thing in common—they kept him in the public 25 . He was so well known that in any city in
the USA he would meet someone he 26 in the first half hour.
My mother suffered from serious illnesses. 27 Dad taught all day and worked all evening,

work, but many times he 31 money by riding his bike.
At that time I used to stutter (口吃) and had difficulty 32 the letter “r”. Dad would
encourage me to 33 ahead about what I was going to say, so I would be able to get it out without

I was always 35 that my father was a well-respected man. I used to think that being a
teacher made him a(n) 36 kind of person, but today I 37 that the most unusual thing about
him was not his job, but the 38 he kept going. The true 39 always falls on those who always
try their best to 40 their responsibilities and that's what my father did.
