One day in January 2019, Chi's campus life was suddenly pressed the pause button. He was in school that day when he suddenly became weak and pale.
Xiao Qi's sudden symptoms made his parents feel very unreliable, and they sent Xiao Qi to the hospital in the city for examination. This eventually became a turning point in Xiao qi's fate: the colorful campus life would gradually become strange, replaced by a cold, monotonous white ward, and the same "white" disease: acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Before this moment came, Xiaoqi was in the third grade at a school in the local countryside. He has one of the best grades in the class, has an introverted personality, and is a sensible child in the eyes of the teacher. Xiao Qi's father said, "When he was studying, he was very well-behaved, did not like to talk, and was not as naughty as other people's little boys." "Looking at the child who is now silently suffering from illness, Mom and Dad always remember what he used to look like in school.
The distance between Xiao Qi and the school slowly widened. Mom and Dad quickly sent their children to the provincial capital of Hefei for treatment, hoping to exchange the 200 kilometers of travel and higher costs for better medical conditions. However, the school is worried about the excellent Xiaoqi: due to the distance, teachers and students cannot visit Xiaoqi in person in the hospital, so the school organized a donation for Xiaoqi, whose family was strapped. "The children donated three or five pieces, while the teachers donated one hundred and two hundred." Looking back on these little things now, the Xiaoqi family still feels warm.
After more than two years of long chemotherapy, Xiao qi's indicators returned to normal and he was able to return to school. The family was very happy, but because she was still not out of the high-risk period of recurrence, Xiaoqi needed to have a regular blood picture examination.
However, the family's biggest fear happened. In April this year, Xiao Qi, who had just started school for a month, was diagnosed with a recurrence of leukemia during regular examinations, and it was a high-risk condition that could not be treated locally, and the doctor recommended them to the hospital in Shanghai. Xiao Qi once again faced a parting with her teachers and classmates, and the return date was uncertain, and the distance was unprecedentedly far.
After arriving in Shanghai, after two stages of chemotherapy and stabilizing his condition, Xiao Qi immediately underwent a bone marrow transplant. What followed was a long and unknown period of rejection, as well as a series of rejection reactions such as mouth ulcers, nasal bleeding, and nail loss. Speaking of the pain caused by rejection reactions, parents see it in their eyes and feel pain in their hearts, but they cannot share the pain for their children, and can only give him a pattern to supplement nutrition under limited economic conditions. They remember exactly when and when their child developed which conditions and symptoms. Under the torment of illness, Xiao Qi, who is already introverted, is more willing to hide his memories and thoughts about the campus in his heart.
Xiao Qi was only a twelve-year-old child, and he had too much confusion about his illness and fate. He no longer wanted to prick needles and make bone piercings, and the only pain caused by more than twenty bone piercings was pain. This unkind child often asks his father, why do I have this disease? "I really can't answer, I haven't found out until now, and I don't know what the reason is." But certainly not genetic, because no one in our family has ever had such a disease..."
In the face of fate's question, there is only speechlessness. But they knew that Xiao Qi's greatest wish was to return to campus as soon as possible, so although his savings had long been used up and he owed more than 300,000 foreign debts, they told themselves that there was still hope than keeping Xiao Qi's life and letting him return to a healthy and safe life.
