爸爸突然中風了。 當他再次睜開眼,
身體像壞掉的機器人一樣,不能自控。
他的雙手起了變化。
左是「好手」,右是「壞手」。
左手成了所有日常生活的依靠;
壯碩有力。右手成了掛在身體 上的附屬品;
執筆無力。機械卻讓它不由自主地開合。
康復期間,家裡出現了爸爸隨手塗寫的紙張。 那是六合彩的號碼,是他唯一願意用右手寫字的原因。 每期六合彩都是他買來的機會。
他希望這些數字總有一次能幫助他的家庭,
過上好日子。

Dad had a stroke unexpectedly.
When he opened his eyes again, his body was like a robot that was out of his control. His hands have changed. Left is now "good hand” and has become the basis of all daily life; strong and powerful. Right hand became "bad hand” hanging o the body, unable to write and relying on a machine to make it open and close involuntarily.
During his recovery, I began photographing him and collecting papers that father had written on. Numbers of the Mark Six (Lottery) results. It became the only reason he is willing to write with his right hand. Each issue of Mark Six is an opportunity he bought. He hopes that these numbers will help his family to live a better life.
