1. Entonces fui a las bombas. Trabajé más duro de lo que había trabajado en mi vida. Todos lo hicimos. Nuestras manos sangraron. Nuestras espaldas se rompieron. Pero seguimos bombeando. El agua siguió entrando. Estábamos perdiendo la batalla. El barco se estaba muriendo.
Then
I went
to
the pumps.
I worked
harder
than
I had worked
in
my life.
We all
did.
Our hands
bled.
Our backs
broke.
But
we kept
pumping.
The water
kept
entering.
We were
losing
the battle.
The ship
was dying.
