Yang Shouwei, vice president of Weifang Children's Welfare Institute, won the title of "Model of Qilu Era"
On the evening of January 18, the release ceremony of "Model of the Qilu Times" hosted by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Department of Civil Affairs, the Weifang Municipal Party Committee, the Mass Newspaper Group, the Shandong Radio and Television Station, and the Shandong Radio and Television Station Rong Media Information Center was held. Today, yang Shouwei, a "special mother" with 1,029 children, was awarded the title of "Model of the Qilu Era".
In people's impression, the children in the welfare home are a group of children abandoned by their parents and need to be sympathized with and pitied, but when you walk into the Weifang Children's Welfare Home, you will find that the children here are positive, healthy and full of sunshine.
Behind the children's bright smiling faces is inseparable from Yang Shouwei's hard work. 22 years ago, Yang Shouwei filled the shortcomings of orphaned children's lives with a simple smile, and guarded the children's vigorous growth with regretless dedication.
Back in 2000, Yang Shouwei, then 29, came to work in the children's department of Weifang Welfare Institute and became a full-time nurse for orphaned children. The children in the welfare home have different conditions, different severity, and the severe disability rate is more than 90%, far beyond Yang Shouwei's imagination, which makes her very distressed as a new mother. Since then, she has secretly decided to be their mother, to let them thrive in the sun and rain like other children.
On weekdays, feeding, urinating, and keeping vigil on duty, Yang Shouwei's time is almost all occupied by children. In the cold winter months, the figure of her burying her head in washing diapers also left a deep mark on the hearts of the old dean and other nursing staff. "20 years ago, we were not wet like now, at that time we all used diapers, (children) after the stool should be very dirty and smelly, from her point of view is rushed to rinse the first time, the second time." 」 When the old dean saw this scene at that time, he felt that Yang Shouwei was a good seedling and worthy of trust.
In 2009, the welfare home took in a child with severe cleft lip and palate, who was somewhat malnourished because of incomplete swallowing organs. Yang Shouwei named him Jianjian in the hope that he could grow up healthily.
"He has cleft lip and palate, so it's more difficult to feed. In the beginning, we used a spoon to feed him, and used the spoon to feed the milk into his mouth drop by drop, but when the milk was halfway through, the milk was cold, and sometimes when the drops were too much, he would choke. Yang Shouwei recalls the appearance of taking care of Jian Jian at the beginning. Jian Jian finished every meal crying, and Yang Shouwei sweated when she fed a meal, but she never wanted to give up. After much trial and error, she tried to put a new drip hose with a clean syringe and push the milk evenly onto the child's little tongue, and Jian Jian quickly mastered the rhythm of swallowing.
From social science, medical treatment, rehabilitation department, to morning classroom, activity room, handicraft studio, Yang Shouwei led mothers to continuously enrich the children's growth space, and every corner here left laughter. Growing up with the children of the welfare home, Jian Jian learned to sing and draw at the age of three.
Kindergarten teachers also often praise Jian Jian and his good manners, and whenever he hears this, Yang Shouwei is always full of pride. In 2015, Jian Jian was adopted by a caring family.
In the past 22 years, under the care and care of Yang Shouwei and the mothers of the nursing staff, 467 children with similar health conditions have learned to talk, eat, walk, cured their diseases, filled their bodies and minds with energy, adopted by loving families, and have their own homes. Yang Shouwei raised orphaned and abandoned children with his heart, accompanied them to grow up together, created one miracle after another with selfless dedication, and supported a sky of hope for 1029 orphaned and abandoned children with great love.
When others praised her as the "big love mother" who took care of this group of children for 22 years, Yang Shouwei said, "More than twenty years of time, in fact, it is not too long, going to work day by day, one after another raising of children, I also have no time to calm down and think, why accompany the children, there is no time to ponder the meaning and value." It is to take good care of the child, let them grow up healthy and happy, since the child does not have a mother, call me a mother, then I must be a good mother, take care of the child wholeheartedly. ”
The power of the individual is limited, and the power of the collective is infinite. In Weifang, a city with temperature, Yang Shouwei, the "mother of great love", sows the seeds of upward goodness, driving more people to participate in it, so that the best and great love can flourish and live endlessly. In the words of Yang Shouwei, in the past 22 years, she has personally experienced the welfare home from a few bungalows to a first-class welfare home, the current welfare home covers an area of 40 acres, construction area of 18,000 square meters, full coverage of central air conditioning, indoor spring, advanced facilities, nursing staff mothers like them, just pass on the warmth of the party and the government to the children. Children are the ones who benefit most from the new era. As a party member, Yang Shouwei will continue to play a pioneering and exemplary role, leading all nurses and mothers to protect the children with heart and affection!
Finally, Comrade Bai Yugang, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and director of the Propaganda Department, presented an award to Comrade Yang Shouwei, vice president of the Weifang Children's Welfare Institute!
Yang Shouwei: Every life deserves respect Every life cannot be given up lightly
In the Weifang Children's Welfare Institute, most of the children here have disabilities or different diseases, and each child has different nursing problems. Working here requires professional nursing knowledge in addition to full of love and selfless dedication. Over the past 22 years, Yang Shouwei has continuously taught herself knowledge and innovative methods, and she has used professional nursing to make every crippled life more warm and comfortable every day.
Years of childcare experience makes Yang Shouwei extremely sensitive to the child's crying, and she can always find the cause of the crying and find the child's illness for the first time. Su Juanjuan, a nurse at the Weifang Children's Welfare Institute, told reporters that as long as there are children crying, President Yang can do well as soon as she goes to comfort these children, and she understands the characteristics of each child.
"Because these children can't say that I have a stomachache, or that I'm uncomfortable anywhere, they can't use words to express it, so we need to observe carefully." Yang Shouwei said. Children here not only have common diseases such as cerebral palsy and heart disease, but also infectious diseases such as hepatitis B and syphilis. Caring for some children requires not only hardship, but also professional knowledge.
On the fifth day of the first lunar month in 2012, on the day of the reunion of thousands of families, a cry came from the side of the road, and an abandoned baby was found and sent to a welfare home.
"When I sent it, I was very weak and wore a note that said I was hive positive. When I saw the note, many staff members were particularly afraid, feeling afraid of infection, and I was also afraid, but this is a life. If I don't take care of it, this child's life may be gone. "Yang Shouwei, who has never been exposed to AIDS, overcome psychological obstacles, consult materials, consult experts, learn as much as possible about the nursing knowledge of AIDS patients, and find ways to ensure that other children will not be infected." From the incubator to the isolation room, for 6 months, Yang Shouwei took care of it while studying, and also consulted professional doctors for treatment, but he did not expect a miracle.
Yang Shouwei said that when the child was 7 months old, he went to do a repeated examination, the AIDS antibody turned negative, everyone was particularly happy, and felt that the efforts of these months were not in vain.
This also made Yang Shouwei realize the importance of professional knowledge. She spends all her spare time teaching herself nursing, every night until the early hours of the morning. In the past few years, she has obtained a number of qualifications such as senior nursery teacher, voice teacher, nutritionist, rehabilitation and health care division. Yang Shouwei said that if he learns one more skill, the child will have less pain. Once, a child with epilepsy in the hospital had a seizure and his whole body convulsed, and Yang Shouwei did an emergency treatment for the first time. Colleague Zhang Yongmin said that at that time, Dean Yang immediately went to the person who took the hand to pinch the child, and the other hand was put into the child's mouth, and Dean Yang's hand had some deep tooth marks, which were bitten and bleeding.
Professional treatment allows the child to avoid the risk of suffocation caused by biting the tongue. According to the condition of different children, Yang Shouwei has created many nursing methods. One-year-old Chengcheng, because of congenital atresia, can not defecate normally. The ostomy on the stomach needs to be cleaned up every ten minutes, and it needs to be cleaned more than 90 times a day. This is not the hardest, the hardest thing is to prevent the ostomy mouth infection, stool erosion of the skin.
"As long as the child is crying, and then the child's stool will squirt out, the child's skin will be eroded and red, we will cut a hole in the paper cup, and then put it on his ostomy mouth, so that the stool will not spray to other parts." 」 As the child slowly sits and climbs, the original method is no longer applicable, and Yang Shouwei and his colleagues can only keep thinking of new ways. "When the child turns over, we feel difficult, because as soon as we turn over, the cloth will be lifted, so we will make a small autumn coat like the kind of cloth that is put on the body, and when the child comes out, we quickly take down the whole small autumn coat nature of this bag, and when he starts to sit and start to move, then there will be another change." So it's just keep doing it. Yang Shouwei said that in the third year, the child's reconstructed anus was basically formed, and he could defecate on his own, and nursed for a full 3 years.
For three years, more than 90 bowel movements per day and more than 20 nursing program adjustments have given children a rebirth. Behind the rebirth is patience and persistence, the great maternal love beyond blood, and the miracle created by scientific nursing. In view of the characteristics of each orphan and disabled child, Yang Shouwei has customized a personalized care plan, in order to prevent children with cerebral palsy from self-harm, she made her own restraint clothes, in order to help children's limb rehabilitation, she made her own T-shaped pads, ring pillows, and rings.
Carefully guarded, for love. Yang Shouwei said that life has long and short, but as long as she lives in this world for a minute, she will do her best to make him happy for a minute, every life is worthy of respect, every life can not be given up lightly, I hope that every child can enjoy their life.
Yang Shouwei: I feel very happy to be needed by children
22 years ago, Yang Shouwei became a nurse at the Weifang Children's Welfare Institute, feeding and feeding, wearing single cotton, and urinating, Yang Shouwei never got tired.
Compared with the hardship and cumbersomeness of basic nursing, what worries Yang Shouwei more is the children's psychological problems. Xiaoyu is the girl who makes Yang Shouwei the most worried, and when she was sent to the welfare home, she was afraid to come close because she suffered from a rare fish scale disease. "When I saw this child, I took an unnatural step backwards, the skin of my whole body, layer by layer, scabs, there were many places on my body that were cracked with this bloody mouth, and the corners of my eyes were bleeding." Yang Shouwei said that in order to cure Xiaoyu's illness, she went all over the skin experts and took her to Beijing for treatment. Yang Shouwei applied ointment to Xiaoyu every day to make her happy.
After two years of meticulous care, Xiaoyu's condition gradually improved, and her smile became more and more. Once, when Yang Shouwei gave her a bath, Xiaoyu suddenly called out to Yang Shouwei's mother, which made Yang Shouwei surprised and happy, because she had always thought that Xiaoyu was a deaf and dumb child, and she felt particularly happy.
Day and night of effort, let this almost autistic child open his mouth to call out his mother. Later, under the care of Yang Shouwei, Xiaoyu became more and more sunny and cheerful, and became a girl who could sing and love to dance. At the age of 8, he was adopted by a loving family. In the welfare home, there are many children like Xiaoyu, under the warm care of Yang Shouwei, who are reborn in the sun. Day after day, spring to autumn, the nursing staff of the welfare home has gone stubble after stubble, but Yang Shouwei has always insisted, from nursing staff to middle-level cadres to vice presidents, no matter how the position changes, she has always been the closest person to the children.
Yang Shouwei said: "The children saw that I was particularly excited, they ran up one by one to let me hold them, I really can't afford to hold so many children alone, they just grabbed one finger of mine, they can catch the finger they are very happy, can be needed by the children, I feel very happy." ”
Yang Shouwei: It is my greatest wish for my children to return to their families
For children in children's welfare homes, being able to return to the family is the best destination, which is also the wish of "loving mothers".
On the second floor of the Weifang Children's Welfare Institute, there is a smiley wall and 84 smiling faces, which are photos taken by the children who have been adopted from here in recent years when they leave. Yang Shouwei said: "Our job is to hope that they can return to the family, and it is very happy to see them come home, especially when they see photos with smiles on them." ”
From the moment he enters the welfare home, Yang Shouwei will take each child to treat diseases and do rehabilitation training to prepare for the child's future entry into the family and society. When Xiao Yugang, who was suffering from ichthyosis, arrived at the welfare home, he was only two years old, his skin was crusted, and he could not speak.
Wang Min, a social department worker at the Weifang Children's Welfare Institute, told reporters that at that time, Xiaoyu was dripping red tears, her eyelids were turned outward, and she felt that there was no complete skin on her body, but Dean Yang was like her own child, taking good care of her.
There is no cure for ichthyosis, but Yang Shouwei did not give up, and she took Xiaoyu to Jinan and Beijing for treatment. In the past 22 years, Yang Shouwei has accompanied more than 400 children to perform more than 600 surgeries. Some children are uncomfortable crying after the operation, and Yang Shouwei has been holding the child in his arms.
Under the meticulous care of Yang Shouwei, Xiaoyu's wound began to heal, and he shouted "Mother" in surprise. "Look up and scream, the corners of the mouth are a little up, how can a deaf-mute child talk, from two years old to more than three years old, almost two years, she called me mom." 」
The little girl doll, who was once full of disease marks, became a lively and smiling little girl, and at the age of 8, Xiao Yu was adopted by a loving family. Over the years, 467 children in welfare homes have found adoptive parents and regained their own homes. "Holding hands in your arms is reluctant, really reluctant." When the children left, Dean Yang was upstairs, did not dare to send them, and could not eat for several days. Wang Min told reporters.
This is the growth file, every child in the welfare home has a copy, the footprints of birth handprints, can walk, change teeth ... These growth moments that are transferred to the hands of adoptive parents are to make up for the lack of companionship and allow children to integrate into the new family faster. Despite the great concern, after the child left, Yang Shouwei never took the initiative to contact the child.
"Usually we may fantasize about whether this child is in school or not, a few grades. But we also just look at the pictures, because I think it's not easy for children to have a complete family and don't want to bother them. Every child in my imagination is a smiling face in front of my eyes. Yang Shouwei said.
The continuation of love – I will be you when I grow up
Under the influence of Yang Shouwei, a child who came out of the welfare home chose to return to work in the welfare home, which is gratitude and the continuation of great love.
Sun Chunmei, 35, is one of the 1,029 children Yang Shouwei has cared for. Because cleft lip and palate were abandoned from childhood, Sun Chunmei grew up in the welfare dean. In 2000, when Yang Shouwei came to work at the welfare home, Sun Chunmei was already in junior high school. Yang Shouwei often took her back to his home, bought her clothes, gave her pocket money, and regarded her as his own. Sun Chunmei said that one day when she went back late, Aunt Yang was in a hurry, so she ran to the bus station to wait for her, which made her feel very warm, and there were still people waiting after school, and she felt that she had received no less love than children with families.
After graduating from Weifang Nursing Vocational College, Sun Chunmei returned to the welfare institute to become a colleague of Yang Shouwei. In 2010, the Weifang Children's Welfare Institute and the Social Welfare Institute were separated, and those who were over 18 years old and could not take care of themselves entered the social welfare institute, Sun Chunmei chose to stay in the social welfare institute and care for 278 small partners, "I think Aunt Yang handed the baton to my hands, because the state and society, as well as our aunts took care of you, you must take good care of these younger brothers and sisters." ”
Under the words and deeds of Yang Shouwei, the team of loving "mothers" has been expanding. In order to prevent and control the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the Weifang Children's Welfare Institute was closed twice last year for a total of 9 months, and Yang Shouwei and other staff took the initiative to ask Miao to stay behind.
Yang Shouwei said that every day, colleagues will write applications to enter the closed area of the welfare home, and the next day they will come with their suitcases, watching them mature day by day, and knowing that they are not only the mothers of their children, but also the mothers of the children of the welfare home, their growth makes Yang Shouwei very happy.
Disinfecting and ventilating every day, patrolling once every 2 hours, Yang Shouwei led 33 staff members to give up their reunion with their families, take care of the children in the welfare home day and night, and build a strong epidemic prevention fortress for them. Su Juanjuan, an early education teacher, stayed in the welfare home for more than 4 months, while her own child was only two years old. She told reporters that there is no time to video with her children during the day, only busy at night to a very late video, but also endure the thoughts of children, and in the welfare home as long as one more person can have more love.
"As soon as the child entered the room, Mother Yang and Mother Yang pounced like this, and in ten or twenty years, when I entered the room, a group of children also pounced on me, called Mother Wang, and I hoped to become a good mother like Sister Yang." Yang Shouwei colleague Wang Min said.
