A young couple in a transnational marriage gave birth to twins, because premature birth put a heavy pressure on their family and changed their lives at once. Faced with great financial pressure and the pain of seeing her children, the wife tearfully recites a sentence all day, what is going on?
Transnational marriage
Things have to start from a few years ago, Hubei rural youth Zhong Dou, his parents are farmers, he has not read a lot of books, as a teenager left his hometown to go out to work, hoping to rely on his own hard work to live a good life.
In his hometown, he did not meet the girl he liked, he wanted to see if he could meet his other half in the outside world. He and his compatriots came to work in a hotel in a city in Shandong, he helped cook in the hotel kitchen, although the work was more tired, but he was still very happy, and he could earn a relatively high remuneration.
In the hotel, gathered in the south of the sea to work young people, once the hotel came a front desk girl, called Ma Aiyi, the name is very strange, a inquiry to know that she is from Myanmar girl. Zhong Dou and the Burmese girl seem to have a very good fate, and the two people have a common heart and minds, and soon become a couple.
In May 2019, Maeyi found out that she was pregnant, and went to the hospital to check and found that they were twins. This made the two young men very happy, and they considered getting married right away.
Zhong Dou took Ma Aiyi back to his hometown of Yingcheng, Hubei Province, where he held a wedding, and after getting married, it meant that he had his own small family and had to bear his own responsibilities. After they got married, they waited for the birth of their children.
Because considering that his wife is pregnant and twins and needs to be taken care of by the family, the work of the hotel is not suitable for their current rhythm of life, so Zhong Dou went to Zhumadian in Henan to work as a liquefied gas porter under the recommendation of his fellow villagers, which is a physical work, although it is very tired, but the income is not bad.
This working time is relatively fixed, if the wife has problems at home, there are fellow villagers who can help each other, and he has time to accompany his wife after work, after all, she lives in a foreign country, and the husband's care is very important.
After becoming pregnant, Ma Aiyi was very uncomfortable, but the two children in her stomach kept moving, bringing infinite joy to this mother.
Sudden production
One weekend on November 30, Maeyi was at home alone, and suddenly her stomach began to hurt, and she was very flustered and hurried to call her husband who was out of work. But Zhong Dou is sending liquefied gas to customers, this thing is dangerous, must be safely delivered to customers, there is no way to come back immediately.
Ma Aiyi really can't stand the pain at home, go to the hospital for examination, the twins are generally less than a month will be premature, the mother should try to let the child stay in the stomach for a while, so that they develop well.
Maeyi's due date was launched in February of the following year, on November 30, the situation of premature babies will be more dangerous, after examination, the doctor decided to operate immediately, and at 19:00 that night the two boys were successfully born, but in view of the premature birth, the two children had a series of symptoms.
On the doctor's critical illness notice, there are a bunch of disease names that Zhong Dou has never heard of, such as acute brain injury in premature infants, neonatal pneumonia, myocardial defects and so on.
Two premature babies entered the neonatal intensive care unit, and the mother, Maeyi, recovered quickly and was discharged three days later. The first time she wanted to see her child, outside the intensive care unit, through the glass window, looking at her child from a distance. Ma Aiyi washed her face with tears every day, and her mouth kept nagging, sorry for the child.
A few days later, with the doctor's permission, they went to see two children together, both of whom were particularly small, one 3.2 pounds, one in his early 3 pounds, and had tubes all over his body, and they were so weak and needed help. Seeing this scene, this young parent can't stand it.
Sky-high cost of treatment
The child's condition is one aspect, the most headache is the huge cost of children's treatment, after entering the hospital for surgery, two children enter the intensive care unit, the initial cost is 120,000, and the later child's treatment cost Doctor told them that they need about 200,000.
The young couple only had a total of 20,000 savings, and the initial cost of 120,000 yuan was borrowed from relatives and villagers, and they really couldn't afford the costs behind.
Zhong Dou is a manual laborer, earning thousands of yuan a month, and his life is so-so, but the huge amount of money for treating his illness is indeed like a mountain for him.
Because two children were born prematurely, many organs have not yet matured, and medical technology is needed to help children recover their health and live.
Some people suggested that if there was really no money, they would not be cured, go home and resign themselves to fate, and when they heard this advice, Ma Aiyi wept bitterly, but they also had no way, and the family also felt that the children were innocent, and they must find a way to save them.
After everyone's consultation, Zhong Dou and Ma Aiyi launched a fundraising campaign on the Internet, but the effect was average, they only raised 20,000 yuan, and the huge amount of 200,000 yuan is far behind.
In the days of fighting for donations, Zhong Dou did not give up his work, did not take a day off, and did his own thing in his post.
As a wife who did not sit for a day after giving birth, she also took care of her home and did her own thing. However, the money has not yet been solved, and the child's treatment costs have not yet been raised, and then some media have noticed the family.
In 2021, the media found the young couple, learned about their plight, and wrote about their experiences as news reports.
After media reports, many local people learned about this situation, they are willing to donate money and materials to the children, there are students, fathers, old people, some people have had similar experiences like Zhong Dou, have had their same psychological struggles, with the donations and encouragement of caring people, the couple has strengthened their belief in curing the child's disease.
With the efforts of everyone, the cost of treatment was finally raised, the children's illness could finally be successfully treated, and after a period of treatment, the premature baby of mixed Chinese and Burmese descent finally survived and was led home by their parents.
In 2022, the children have returned home, zhong dou and Ma Aiyi can finally rest assured, although the children do not know how to do it in the future, but at present they are very satisfied.
