There was once a large-scale Korean movie Uncle that depicted the tragic life of a girl after being paralyzed. This film shows the evil of the world, and when people face the heroine who is paralyzed and incapacitated, they show not the kindness of the world, but the crime of the shadow of the city. Women will use the heroine as a punching bag, while men will use the heroine as a sex doll to solve their desires.
A boy in South Africa has a similar life experience to the heroine in the movie. He suffered from a strange illness at an early age, and during the more than ten years of illness, he was subjected to many inhuman abuses, but he was not unconscious during this period. After seeing the evil of the world, he gradually woke up, but the tragic life of more than ten years had exhausted him physically and mentally, so how could he reconcile with this unfriendly world? What kind of life will he have in the future?
His infancy
The boy, Martin Pistorius, was born in 1975 to an ordinary Family in South Africa. Although the conditions in his family were not the best, his father was an engineer and earned a good income every year. Although his mother is a stay-at-home mother who is responsible for taking care of the family's children, the family's financial conditions can still meet the family's daily expenses.
He is the eldest son of the family, the crystallization of his parents' love, and has been pampered since birth. When he was a child, his parents took good care of him, and his daily life can be said to be worry-free. Even after that, the couple had children again, but the love for him has not decreased. On the contrary, his parents' expectations of him are getting higher and higher, and his father cultivates hobbies for him at an early age in order to make him superior, so that he can become a talent earlier.
And he did not live up to the expectations of his parents, he has had a superior mind and hands-on ability since he was a child. At that time, he often studied the structure of toys in hidden places, and he would split and reassemble the toys. Younger siblings in the family often complained about their parents because they couldn't find toys, but their parents were very supportive of their eldest son, not only did not stop it, but also encouraged his invention.
Soon after, he became obsessed with Lego toys and often assembled some interesting houses. He once invented the alarm to protect his achievements from being destroyed by his younger siblings. Younger siblings will come to wreak havoc again, and the sound of the alarm will attract Martin.
At that time, my parents loved this smart eldest son very much, he was a gifted child, and life would surely be smooth after that. Originally, his life would have gotten better and better, but when he was twelve, fate gave him a heavy blow.
Unfortunately, he fell ill and his life entered a period of stagnation
In 1998, at the age of twelve, he felt unwell, and then he went to the hospital, where the doctor concluded that he had meningitis. After suffering from this disease, he will slowly lose the ability to move and communicate with people. He began to feel that his memory was weakening and his body began to feel unwell.
He gradually became an unimpressive vegetative person, and once a good future life, he can only lie in a hospital bed. At this time, his parents did not give up on treating him, although the results given by the doctors were not satisfactory. However, with the examination of a large number of doctors, his condition became more and more mysterious, and finally found the cause, which turned out to be atresia syndrome.
The parents who got the results were not happy, and the long-term medical treatment and medicine made the generally affluent family empty their savings. After taking care of him for a few years, his parents were forced by financial pressures, and considering the other children in the family, they finally had no choice but to stop his treatment and send him to a rehabilitation nursing home.
After more than ten years of miserable life, a lady saved his life
At the age of sixteen, he came to a nursing home. The caregivers saw his condition and learned that his parents would not come to see him very often and began torturing him every day. Not only did they physically punish him, but they also fed him too hot food and feces, and they took pleasure in torturing him. But what those people did not expect was that he could not move but had a clear understanding and knew everything around him.
But his miserable life was not over, and the nursing home recruited a middle-aged male nurse, and he began to have nasty ideas about Martin. He would often go to Martin's room when there was no one around, and take him to find a quiet room to satisfy his desires. After finding a quiet room, he takes off Martin's clothes and commits a q-breaker. When it was over, he would be brought back with a big wave, and when someone saw the nurse, he would say that he was taking the patient to the sun and walk.
After that, he thought that he could only spend his life in this small room, but he waited for his new life. Soon after, the masseuse Veena appeared in his life, treating Martin kindly and always thinking about him. Veena also tried to stir up his consciousness by various means, and finally experts also said that he was very likely to be sober.
Thanks to Veena's efforts, when he was twenty-five years old, he was finally able to make small physical reactions, after which his parents bought him a computer and gave him the conditions to communicate with people. He also adapted this tragic experience into a novel, hoping to use his experience to encourage those who are still struggling to get by to have hope. No matter how big the blow will eventually pass, as long as there is still hope in the heart, there will be a good life after all.
