［1］ Until that day when he was told that he was likely to get a bone cancer, Bruce Feiler had been living
a happy life. He was a bestselling author of many books. He had a loving marriage and twin three-year-old
girls. His doctor's sudden bad news left him shocked."Would my daughters wonder who I was if I died?
Would they wonder what I thought?" Feiler recalls.
［2］ One day, Feiler got a big idea: he would get a group of trusted men to serve as surrogate (代理)
fathers after his death. His new book, The Council of Dads, recalls that moment:"I started making a list of
men from all parts of my life. These are the men who know me best, men who traveled with me, studied
with me, men who know my voice..." And each man should have one or two things in common with Feiler.
［3］ Feiler made his first request to Shumlin, a farmer. The two became friends just after high school.
Feiler chose him because he was an adventurer who always said "yes" to life.
［4］ Other dads on Feiler's list include Ben, a teacher who would invite the kids to seek the truth of life
and another man, named Henry, who believes in the power of friendship.
［5］ David Black, the editor and close friend who helped Feiler become a well-known writer, also made
the cut. "I work to help people's dreams come true," he recalls. "That's in part what Feiler asked of me, to
be a member of the Council."
［6］ However, the diagnosis (诊断) that led Feiler to has proved wrong. Today, Feiler is cancer-free. But
he says his idea has caught on, and he believes that his book, The Council of Dads, and the website
councilofdads. com is inspiring similar groups to form wherever dads seek strength in the fellowship of
fathers.
