"The child's legs have improved after this operation, your medicine can not be broken, there will always be a way, you can not fall at this critical time." Xiao Chuan lay on the hospital bed, vaguely hearing the conversation between his grandfather and his mother in the corridor, and the tears could no longer be controlled. Looking at Ding Xiaomao who walked in, Xiaochuan cried and said, "Grandpa, I am not cured, let's go home, I can't live without my mother." Xiao Chuan's words made Grandpa Ding Xiaomao's defense line, which had been pretending to be strong, collapse in an instant, and the old tears flowed. The treatment of the grandson is not easy to see the effect, the treatment of the child's mother is also imminent, and the current difficulties really make him feel embarrassed. The picture shows Ding Xiaomao helping his grandson exercise and walk.
Ding Xiaomao is 71 years old this year, and should have been nurturing for a long time, but he and his grandson were struggling in the hospital, night after night. All this stemmed from the illness of his grandson Ding Tangchuan. When Xiaochuan was 5 years old, his family found that he always walked with the tip of his right foot, and was later diagnosed with congenital clubfoot at the First People's Hospital of Qujing City. It was also then that the life of the whole family was completely changed. The picture shows Ogawa reading a book.
When Ding Xiaomao took Xiaochuan to the hospital for examination, he learned that Xiaochuan's illness needed surgery to treat, but Ding Xiaomao's family came from a remote mountain village in Qujing City, Yunnan Province, and the family relied on the family's few acres of thin fields to survive, and Xiaochuan's grandmother also suffered from lumbar disc protrusion and osteoporosis in the early years. The family's life is stretched thin, and there is no money to operate on Ogawa. The picture shows Ding Xiaomao spraying his grandson's leg.
Ding Xiaomao knew that his grandson was seriously ill, but the situation at home at the moment made him have to prepare for the worst. "Doctor, what happens to your child if he doesn't have surgery?" He asked the doctor carefully. "The child is now slowly unable to walk, and if he does not operate as soon as possible, he may be paralyzed in bed and unable to move for the rest of his life, and everything in the future will need to be taken care of." Ding Xiaomao heard the doctor say this, his brain roared, and his tears, which had been strong all his life, could not stop. The picture shows Ding Xiaomao looking at his grandson's X-ray.
Xiaochuan's mother is Ding Xiaomao's daughter, because she is an only child, and eventually the family chooses to let her son-in-law enter the family, and the only grandson, Xiaochuan, is Ding Xiaomao's only hope. Ding Xiaomao couldn't watch such a lovely grandson slumped on the bed for the rest of his life, and he made up his mind that he must operate on his grandson.
But Xiaochuan's condition developed much faster than Ding Xiaomao imagined, and after returning home, he could not walk on the ground in a very short period of time. "Grandpa, am I broken, why can't I walk?" The naïve Xiaochuan didn't know why he was like this, and he looked at Ding Xiaomao with tears in his eyes. Listening to the child say this, Ding Xiaomao's heart was sour, he really couldn't just watch his grandson's condition develop like this. The picture shows Ding Xiaomao taking care of his grandson drinking water.
Ding Xiaomao went around asking for medical advice, he learned that massage will alleviate the development of his grandson's condition, so he massaged his grandson every day when he had time. Hearing which herbs had a therapeutic effect on Ogawa's condition, he went to more than a dozen mountains to dig up medicine for his grandson. "I don't have much ability, and I'm old, so I want to do something for my grandson before I die, otherwise I won't be able to rest assured of this child when I die."
After Ogawa fell ill, everyone in the family worked hard. In order to make more money, Ogawa's father chose to go out to work. And her mother Ding Limei not only takes care of the family's land, but also takes time to go to the neighbor's house to help with some odd jobs. After a period of time, after the family's thrifty use of enough to make up thousands of pieces, Ding Xiaomao rushed to an orthopedic hospital in Sichuan with his grandson, he thought that his grandson's surgery would be able to do it at that time, but reality gave him a heavy blow. A few thousand pieces made Ogawa not even enter the door of the operating room, and it was spent during the examination. The picture shows Ogawa exercising himself to take medicine.
This incident let the Ding Xiaomao family know that it was still far from treating Xiaochuan, and they only had the opportunity to undergo surgery if they worked harder. However, bad luck came to the door again, and when Xiaochuan was 8 years old, under the long-term pressure of his mother Ding Limei's body, he could not bear it. The picture shows Ding Xiaomao wiping his grandson's face.
That day, Ogawa, who was doing his homework in the house, suddenly heard a muffled noise in the kitchen. He shouted "Mother", but no one responded, and when Ogawa rushed to the kitchen to see, his mother's body was straightened, her eyes were constantly turning up, and her mouth was spitting white foam. Ogawa was frightened and cried out "Mommy". After 5 minutes, Ogawa's mother regained consciousness.
Since her son fell ill, Ogawa's mother has been more anxious than anyone else, she is busy every day, and a woman is doing heavy and tiring work like a man. "My son, I have to fight desperately to save him." She used to talk to herself like this. Because of long-term exertion and anxiety, she developed epilepsy. Diseases such as epilepsy require long-term medication, otherwise the frequency of onset will increase and the probability of fatality will increase. The picture shows Ogawa taking medicine.
"I'm so useless, my son is still waiting for surgery, how can I fall down first, I can't fall, and I can't use my son's life-saving money to continue my life." Knowing that she not only spent the money that Ogawa saved for the operation, but also needed to take medicine for a long time to maintain the disease, Ogawa's mother made cruel remarks, resolutely did not take medicine, and left all the money to her son for surgery.
"Mom, I can't live without you." However, just when Ding Limei decided to give up on herself, Xiaochuan's words made her mother burst into tears. "I don't want to leave with regrets, but my mother really can't do it, my mother is guilty." Ding Limei looked at her son whose legs were getting more and more bent, and Xiaochuan looked at her mother who was seriously ill for herself, and it was very uncomfortable, and the suffering made the mother and son in the ward cry with headaches. The picture shows the grandchildren in the ward.
The grandson's surgery is still far away, the daughter is sick again, and in desperation, Ding Xiaomao, who is seventy years old, can only carry the family beam with his son-in-law. Every morning and evening, he returned to odd jobs, but even so, the family's meager monthly income was still a dime a dozen in front of Ogawa's surgery fees. Such days lasted until Ogawa was a teenager, and the pain that had not been cured for many years made Ogawa develop from a disease that had developed from a disease such as high arch foot, Achilles tendon contracture, acquired calf shortening deformity and so on. Ding Xiaomao became more and more anxious, but he could not see hope at all.
Until October 2021, Ding Xiaomao heard that a hospital in Kunming was able to perform surgery on his grandson's illness and had policy subsidies that could reduce some fees. Ding Xiaomao sold what the family could sell, borrowed some money from relatives and friends, and rushed there with his grandson, and this time Xiaochuan was finally able to operate. Pictured is Ogawa.
Corrective surgery was done for several hours, and Ding Xiaomao stood guard at the door of the operating room step by step. After the operation, after seeing his grandson's legs full of cold steel nails, Ding Xiaomao was both distressed and helpless, and he kept saying in his mouth: "If only I could do it for you." ”
After the operation, Ding Xiaomao took care of his grandson in the hospital, and he did not know anything, and he had to run several times more than others every time he went through the formalities, and he also had to carry his grandson who was taller than him to go to the examination and take care of his grandson to go to the toilet. The picture shows Ogawa walking during exercise.
In the hospital, Ding Xiaomao took good care of his grandson, but he was very harsh on himself. Eat only cornmeal and dried vegetables brought at home, it is really not possible to pour a little salt in the rice and mix it. At night, he was reluctant to rent an extra bed, and in order not to squeeze his grandson, he laid paper shells and clothes on the ground, and it would be one night. Listening to grandpa sigh because of the soreness of his body after lying down, Xiao Chuan felt as uncomfortable as a pinprick.
"Grandpa is old, I want to get better quickly, and I will take care of Grandpa in the future." Xiao Chuan said, but such a hard work Ding Xiaomao never put it in his heart, what worried him was that Xiao Chuan's treatment was only the beginning, because the past delay was too long, and there would be several surgeries in the future, and rehabilitation treatment would be needed to get better. At this moment, Xiaochuan's mother's illness has become more and more serious because she is reluctant to take medicine, and she often convulses without warning. Ding Xiaomao suddenly fell into despair. The picture shows Ogawa and Grandpa looking at the outside world.
Approaching the New Year, Ogawa talked about his New Year's resolution. "Grandpa, I know that the family is difficult, and I know that you hurt me, but I really can't bear to see my mother so sick, and you work so hard for me every day." Your wish to forgive me is that I am more seriously ill, and it is better to have no cure, so that I will no longer have to drag you down. Ogawa took grandpa's hand tightly and said these words. Ding Xiaomao wanted to blame his grandson, but at this moment he couldn't say a word, and he was already in tears. The picture shows Ogawa standing and reading a book.
