On the 5th of August, 2023, my father was involved in a car crash. The accident left him with severe spinal cord injuries, a fractured 11th vertebrae, and the nearly complete erasure of his ability to move his lower body.

Of physical pain, Virginia Woolf writes this in her 1926 essay "On Being Ill": "The merest schoolgirl, when she falls in love, has Shakespeare or Keats to speak her mind for her; but let a sufferer try to describe a pain in his head to a doctor and language at once runs dry. There is nothing ready made for him. He is forced to coin words himself, and, taking his pain in one hand, and a lump of pure sound in the other (as perhaps the people of Babel did in the beginning), so to crush them together that a brand new word in the end drops out."

(The text is provided by the student) 2023年8月5日，我父親遭遇了一場車禍。這場意外導致他的脊髓嚴重損傷，第11節椎骨骨折，並且幾乎完全喪失移動下半身的能力。

1926年，維吉尼亞·伍爾夫發表了一篇名為《論生病》（On Being Ill）的文章。伍爾夫寫道：「當一個普通女孩墮入愛河，她可以以莎士比亞或濟慈的文字道出自己的心聲；但當病患嘗試向醫生描述自己的痛楚時，語言卻立刻如河水般流乾。他的詞庫空空如也。他被迫自己杜撰新詞，然後，以一隻手拿起他的痛楚，再用另一隻手抓緊一團聲音（也許就像當時巴別塔的人們所做一般），把他們壓在一起直至一個全新的字因此成型。」
