3、 The year was 1964. I was about 16 and lived in a small town in the southernmost tip of India. While my father and my elder brother were in Mumbai to earn a living, I was at home, in our small rented accommodation, looking after my mother, who had been in bed for 15 years.

One day Mothers disease turned serious and she needed immediate medical help. There was a government hospital about an hours drive away. Mother was so sick that I had no option but to hire a taxi.

On reaching the hospital, when I was about to pay the taxi driver, he refused to accept any money. "Keep it. You may need it to buy food," he said. "Now go on to care for your mother. I will be at the gate in case you need me." The doctors recommended Mother doing some tests and keeping her under observation.

Later, when the taxi driver drove me back home, I found our front door locked, with all our belongings out in the courtyard. Our landlady came out and announced that we couId no longer live in her house. She was worried that if my mother died in the house, nobody would rent her place again. On top of all our troubles, we were homeless now.

The taxi driver helped me at every step of the way. He took Mother to another hospital. He drove us to Christ Nagar to pick up our belongings. He helped us find a shelter. He ferried us several times without charging a dime(十分硬币), waiting patiently in front of hospitals. He helped at a time when he could have earned money for himself and his family. The unbelievable kindness of this extraordinary man changed my life forever. I still remember him vividly today. To me, he was an angel in a black and yellow taxi.
