Beam除了笑容满面的意思之外，还有光束，发射等意思。但今天我们要讲的是欢乐有爱的故事，所以beam在这个故事里就是笑容满面，开心的意思。

There is a nine-year-old girl called Melody Driscoll. She is such a big fan of Ed Sheeran, her family refers to him as her Prince Charming.

这个叫做Melody的小女孩一出生就被诊断出患有Rett综合征。这是一种非常罕见的神经障碍性疾病。

Melody can't walk or talk, though she understands everything. She's spent about 80 percent of her life in hospital, undergoing over 40 operations.

医生预估她只能活到4岁，但今年的12月Melody就要10岁了！Melody'sfamily credits Ed Sheeran's music for lifting her spirits and inspiring her tokeep fighting.

于是，Meldoy的妈妈一年前就开始在社交媒体上呼吁，希望Edsheeran能够来看望自己的女儿。 后来，EdSheeran的经纪人看到了这个事情。

然后，当当当 surprise! EdSheeran真的出现在了Melody的床边。

Melody的妈妈说：“Shewas star struck at first, she didn't believe it was him so he let her stroke his tattoo¹ to prove he was the real deal,”

非要摸摸看看EdSheeran 的纹身才真正确定他不是梦！

Sheeran performed his hit songs, “Thinking Out Loud” and “Photograph” for Melody on a little pink guitar.

Melody就是从thinking out loud这首歌开始喜欢Sheeran的。她的妈妈写给Sheeran的话里提到：“Somany times I nearly lost her because she was giving up but as soon as we put you on Melody would start fighting back,”

“This is what I mean when I say thatI literally² owe you her life. You literally keep her alive. She fights to stay in this crazy world just because of you.”一个小女孩实现了自己的一个梦想！

Now, the musician has made Melody's dreams come true. And she can't stop beaming.

那又是什么在支撑着你每天的努力，支撑着你度过每一次的伤心和绝望呢？你的梦想又是什么呢？
