On a personal note, cloning would totally transform my life. Seven years ago, my 10-year-old daughter died of heart failure.

就我个人而言，克隆将彻底改变我的生活。7年前，我10岁的女儿死于心力衰竭。

She was beautiful, cheerful and bright. I miss her every single day.

她美丽，快乐，聪明。我每天都想念她。

If I had the chance, I would clone her immediately so that I could be with her again.

如果我有机会，我会立刻克隆她来让她再次陪在我身边。
