Be my teacher!

Hi, my dear teacher. I am back. Sorry for the delay.
Thank you for your all favors
Yes, I knew the principle partly, but just about “conjunctive adverbs, such as however, therefore, nevertheless, etc.”
But now, with your explanations, I’ve learned it much better
Thank you for everything.
And one question… so far, I’ve seen anywhere I have put a “such” before an adjective, you changed it into “so”; like this one: “my trachea was so damaged that they were not able to repair it.”
Then, where and how can I use a “such”?

Hi, everybody
Here is the rest of the story...

I returned home with another tracheostomy tube which seemed to be likely a permanent guest for my trachea! At first, I was frustrated, but I didn’t let the feeling last for long. I had got rid of the respirator and was able to breathe on my own; this was the most important thing.

Now, I could do physiotherapy which was so important to help me retrieve some abilities. Therefore, I seriously began to do physiotherapy. After a while, I could move my left arm a bit while the rest of my body was still moveless; I could not even sit.

After seven months of living in the capital, we decided to return to our city. This time, instead of taking an ambulance, we flew to home. There, I resumed immediately doing physiotherapy. I was doing physiotherapy every day for about 3 to five hours, apart from weekends.

Gradually, the movement of my left arm was getting better. I could move it up and down, bent it inwardly but not outwardly, and I could hardly reach my hand to my nose and scratched it. However, my wrist and fingers didn’t move at all.

I also began to try to sit. When I was sitting, my blood pressure was fallen and I fainted. Even if I could tolerate the sitting position, I couldn’t breathe comfortably and was not able to swallow even a sip of water; my circulatory system and all the inside organs of my body had got used to horizontal position. However, after a few months, I was able to sit and eat or drink normally in that position. But I couldn’t sit by myself; I was supported by fastening a string around me and the bed as well as putting two pillows at the two side of me.

Since I had returned to home, despite I was making progress, I became depressed. It seemed I had just understood what had really happened to me. I was angry with God. I inwardly quarreled with Him, struggled with myself, and fought with all the circumstances. I completely felt helpless…

To be continued...

Dear teacher,
I’ve used several semicolons in this episode. Did I use them correctly?

Thank you my dear teacher.
Can I say, after “such” comes “noun OR adj + noun”, but after “so” comes just “adj”?

Besides, I’ve used “so, such”, “comma with a non-essential relative clause”, and more “semicolons” in the next episode. Did I use them correctly?

(I admit I’ve used semicolons to excess! but just for practicing.)

And thank you for the point about “home”. I thought the rule is just for the verb “go” plus “home”

I fought with God as much intensely as I was doing physiotherapy; as if it was not about health, I just wanted to defeat Him by getting better. In fact, I wanted to tell Him, “I am renovating what You have destroyed.”

Because my accident had happened when I was a university first-year-student, I blamed God for excluding me from education. Therefore, now I could sit up, I began to study; just for battling with Him. I had to choose a field which required noting but mental ability; a pair of eyes and a brain were my only tools to study. In this situation, I had only one choice; English Language.

Although I had no hope to study academically someday, I began to improve my English knowledge; nothing mattered apart from defeating God.

My father bought me some self-training books and my mother helped me to read them. She turned the pages of the books, when I wanted, and wrote down the important points in a notebook for me.

Although I began to study with the motivation for battling God, it made me feel better and even peace with Him! Now, I felt I was doing something useful in my life, therefore I decided to continue studying purposely. I could see even if I couldn’t study English academically, I would be able to improve my English to the extent I would somehow manage to work as a translator.

Meanwhile, one time I had gone to the hospital for annual changing my Tracheostomy tube, after the doctor did a bronchoscopy, he said the situation of my trachea was apparently a bit better.

Almost a week later, my Orthopedist came to visit me, because of a problem with my left leg; it was hurt during a physiotherapy session.

When my orthopedist heard about the thoracic specialist’s diagnosis, he somehow persuaded me to come to the capital and consult with experienced doctors.

In my opinion, traveling to the capital was impossible! It would be definitely so hard that was practically impossible. On the other hand, the thoracic specialist’s diagnosis was not absolute, and they might not do anything for me in the capital. I couldn’t bear such a hardship while the result was not certain.

However, at the orthopedist’s insistence, I was convinced to try my luck…

At last, I was convinced to go to the capital. It was a challenging trip. Because of my respiratory problem, the Airline Company didn’t allow me to fly. They wanted their reliable physician examined me and confirmed that I could bear flying. Even if their physician gave us permission to fly, a nurse must accompany me during the flight. All this process lasted for a couple of weeks. However, getting permission from the hospital was so easy, because the doctor knew me before.

Ultimately, the appointed day came. Although I was supposed to be accompanied by an experienced nurse, I was worried about flying. I thought I would have serious respiratory problem in such a height. But fortunately, everything went very well and I arrived at the hospital completely healthy.

Next day, the doctor took me to the operating room for a bronchoscopy. He examined my trachea carefully and found that it wasn’t in a better condition. After operation, he came to my room in the ward and spoke to me and my parents. We were not pleased with what we were hearing, but the doctor had a suggestion for us!

He offered me to put a new kind of tube into my trachea instead of a tracheostomy tube. He explained that the new tube, called T-tube, had three branches, one of them was placed into the top section of trachea. In this way, air could flow through the larynx, and vocal cords would vibrate; consequently, it was possible to speak. Besides, with a T-tube I could breathe through my nose; with a tracheostomy tube I could just breathe directly through the tube, therefore the inhalation air was so dry.

What a suggestion he was offering to me! I would able to speak after five years.

I was worried about this new experience, though I couldn’t ignore the ability to speak. Therefore, I accepted to try the new tube.

The doctor informed me that I might not bear the T-tube, hence I should not be so hopeful. He advised me to consider the following operation just as trying my luck; otherwise, I might be disappointed.

Two days later, I was taken to the operating room again and after I came around, I found myself in my room with a new feeling. I was breathing through my nose. What a pleasant feeling! It seemed I could bear the tube easily.

The doctor kept me hospitalized for more three days to make sure I wouldn’t have any problem. However, I couldn’t speak yet. Just some ambiguous voices were heard from the bottom of my larynx. Yet it was natural; I had not used my vocal cords for almost five years and in fact, they were asleep. It took time to wake them gradually.

Then, I was released from the hospital and got back home. As the doctor had predicted, I would able to speak after a couple of months. However, because of the problem with my spinal cord, my diaphragm and respiratory system were so weak; as a result, I couldn’t speak normally. In the same breathe, I could express just three words and with a very low voice. Though, it was better than nothing.

After all, the ability to speak provided me with a wonderful chance!

A question:
Can I say, “I couldn’t withdraw from ability to speak.” Instead of “I couldn’t ignore the ability to speak.”

My dear teacher,
I'd like you to know that you have helped me so much. I am now more confident. In fact, I have learned from you more than any of my teachers.
thank you for everything
.................
I used "any of" above... Can you please guide me about using "some, any, each, every & some of, any of, each of, every of"?
Thanks.

As you have read in previous episodes, I had begun studying English by myself. Though, I had no hope to continue my education academically, because there were two obstacles: I was not able to leave home, and I couldn’t speak.

First of all, I should be able to leave home to attend university. But it was almost impossible. It was difficult to move me regularly from my high bed into the wheelchair. Generally, a paralyzed person is heavier than their real weight; moreover, I had a respiratory tube which it was likely to be pulled out of my trachea with any incorrect move. Also, I was dependent in a suction pump which removed the accumulated Phlegm in my lung through the tube.

The other thing which excluded me from academic education was inability to speak. Especially in English, speaking was a major part which could not be ignored. Therefore, now I was able to speak, in fact one of the barriers was vanished; it could even say the most important one.

As a result, my parents and I decided to do anything to get permission from my former university for distance learning. Although my former university didn’t have distance learning programs, they accepted our request, provided the higher education organization in the capital would accept as well.

It seemed that the rays of hope were getting revealed, so we were intent on giving their approval. It was a real challenge; we must persuade them that I could study without attending the classes. They should be convinced that I would learn the subjects at the same extent that other students learned in the classroom.

To achieve this aim, we made a team! My father was in charge of going regularly to the capital, meeting the officials, and discussing with them. In fact, the paperwork was vested to him (oh, poor daddy! )

On the other hand, my mother and I tried to improve my English knowledge; in order to show that I could be better than any other student.

During the two years, my father travelled to the capital altogether 24 times; on average 2 times a month! I also learned a lot of English with the help of my mother who turned the pages, wrote down the points, turned on and off CD player, and so on. She had devoted herself to me.

Ultimately after two years, my father succeeded in convincing the Director General of Higher Education that I could study just through visual Communications with teachers and students.

Although he was hesitant, he decided to give me a chance; however, he laid me down a condition…
