This is a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses of Mixed Chinese and Vietnamese races: twin sister Ah Ting, unfortunately suffering from leukemia. When the family was desperate, 14-year-old brother Ah Gui stepped forward and did not hesitate: Save my sister, I come!
However, when the young Ah Gui donated the marrow, it was found that he also suffered from leukemia. The two sisters and brothers who have the same disease and pity each other have their lives hanging in the balance. At this time, the uncle who was far away in London, England, brought a helpless and cruel choice: two brothers and sisters, only one can be saved! Obviously, it is hope, but it is also despair! In the end, what kind of magnificent life answer will this pair of weeping blood brothers and sisters give us?
Dongxing, a small border town in Guangxi, is only across the river from Mong Cai in Vietnam. Ah Ting and Ah Gui's home is on the Beilun River at the junction of China and Vietnam. Ah Ting and Ah Gui were born on June 2, 2001, a pair of chinese and Vietnamese mixed dragon and phoenix fetuses. Their father is Chinese Pan Xuejun, and his mother is The Vietnamese Wang Feng, and they have a touching love that transcends worldly and national boundaries. His father, Pan Xuejun, loved literature and was a member of the Chengdu Poetry Society, and published the poetry collection "The Poetry Collection of Chu Zhi Jia". Later, because of the bankruptcy of the advertising company, his wife proposed a divorce and abandoned him. Pan Xuejun wandered to Mong Cai on the border between China and Vietnam, and when he was down, Pan Xuejun met Wang Feng, a Vietnamese girl who was 9 years younger than him. Despite her family's objections, Wang Feng fell in love with Pan Xuejun and soon gave birth to the pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses- sister Ah Ting and younger brother Ah Gui. However, the love between Pan Xuejun and Wang Feng has never been blessed by the families of both sides, so the two have not received a marriage license. Wang Fengyuan's older brother Wang Yuliang in England, especially opposed to the union of the two, and broke off contact with his sister in desperation.
In the past five years, Pan Xuejun took his wife and children from the Vietnamese border to Dongxing and Nanning in Guangxi, and went around to make a living. Forced to make a living, in 2005, Pan Xuejun asked Wang Feng to bring his two children back to Hanoi, Vietnam to live, while he stayed in China alone to support his family. After returning to Hanoi, wang Feng, who worked hard to run the family, did not idle, working day and night to save money, so most of the time, it was her sister Ah Ting who took care of her younger brother Ah Gui alone. All of Ah Gui's childhood was accompanied by his sister.
One day in May 2006, the siblings were playing in the fields when a disheveled neighbor man, frustrated by his feelings, grabbed a kitchen knife and threw himself at Ah Ting. Ah Ting couldn't dodge it, and was slashed three times in a row on the head, and blood spurted out instantly. It was bloody. Ah Gui, who was usually shy and timid and only promised, suddenly rushed over and shouted: "Bad guy! But did not stop the man, seeing that the machete was about to fall on Ah Ting's head again, this 5-year-old child did not know where the courage came from, an arrow step blocked in front of his sister, with a young shoulder to help Ah Ting carry three knives, and the blood flowed immediately. Fortunately, at this time, the nearby villagers arrived in time, and the man, like a frightened bird, turned around and ran.
The two children were immediately taken to the local hospital for emergency treatment. The slashing incident left three long scars on both children, and also left a heavy shadow on Ah Gui's young mind. Ah Gui became more and more silent, afraid to stay alone. One night, the sisters and brothers were asleep, when suddenly there was a thunderclap, and Ah Gui woke up from his sleep, curled up in the corner of the bed in fear, trembling. Ah Ting also woke up, seeing her brother's frightened look, Ah Ting hugged him tightly and said, "Ah Di don't be afraid, the bad guy will not come again, there will be a sister to protect you in the future!" "In the middle of the night when lightning and thunder were thundering, the sisters and brothers snuggled up to each other and became more and more inseparable from each other.
Since childhood, Ah Gui has shown a sense of understanding beyond his age. Every day, before dawn, the sisters and brothers get up early to go to school. There is a 5-kilometer mountain road from their home to the school, and it only takes 2,000 Vietnamese dong (about 6 yuan or less) by car, but in order to save money, the sisters and brothers are walking. In the morning, there were few black people, and in order to give her sister courage, Ah Gui sang loudly while walking. After the second grade, her mother Wang Feng called the sisters and brothers sadly, and said in a serious tone: "Next year's school will only be for one of you, my mother is sorry for you, you cherish this last school time." Ah Ting heard her mother's words and secretly decided not to read it herself next year and let her brother read it. When Ah Gui heard her mother's words, she thought to herself, "I have to earn money to study for my sister!" ”
Don't look at Ah Gui's young age, he really has a lot of ideas! There is a famous specialty in Vietnam, "Saigon Cockfighting", which is particularly valuable. It just so happened that a family in the village was raising this chicken, but this chicken was particularly difficult to raise, and it had to be fed wine every day. How much money you can sell after raising up depends on the "combat effectiveness", if it is good, you can sell more than 3.4 million Vietnamese dong (about 1,000 yuan), Ah Gui spent 10 yuan to buy a chicken, every day after school to go to a small commissary in the village to help people work, sweep the floor to wash dishes and pick up garbage, and exchange two mouthfuls of wine. It is not easy to "pour" wine on chickens, and he is always pecked blue and purple. One summer vacation later, when Ah Gui brought up cockfighting cocks to the market, he won the first prize and sold for 3.2 million Vietnamese dong. Ah Gui is excited: he and his sister can finally continue to school together.
Although the days were miserable, the childhood in Vietnam left the sisters and brothers with a lifetime of happiness. In early 2014, Pan Xuejun applied to the Experimental Primary School in Huangjiang Town, Dongguan, Guangdong Province, where he was given a house and brought his wife and children back to China from Vietnam. However, just when the family was getting better, Ah Ting, who was in junior high school, suddenly fainted in class. Ah Ting continued to have a low fever, and her face became more and more yellow, on April 29, Pan Xuejun took her child to Donghua Hospital for examination, and it turned out that Ah Ting was suffering from leukemia! Getting the diagnosis results, Pan Xuejun's head exploded, his heart was miserable, he tossed and turned for half a lifetime and settled down, thinking that he could make his wife and children live a good life from now on, but who ever thought that this disease would spread to his children? When Ah Ting learned of her illness, the cheerful little girl became autistic and did not want to see anyone. She knew that the family could not afford hundreds of thousands of people for surgery, so she said to her mother: "I don't want to be cured, the family still has to provide for my brother to study, how will I live in the future?" ”
My sister was sick, and Ah Gui's sky was dark. He was so afraid of losing his sister that when he saw his father, he cried and asked, "Will my sister die?" Pan Xuejun shook his head in sadness. On May 7, Ah Ting suddenly had a high fever of 41 degrees and began to talk nonsense. The doctor said that the best way to save Ah Ting was to have a bone marrow transplant immediately. Pan Xuejun immediately went to the match, only 3 points coincided, Wang Feng's physique was weak, and the doctor thought that she was not suitable for donation. They went to the Chinese Bone Marrow Bank to register, because of Ah Ting's special condition, belonging to the Chinese-Vietnamese mixed blood, has not found a suitable source of bone marrow. At this time, they thought of their son Ah Gui. When Ah Gui heard that he could save his sister, he was overjoyed. On June 9, when Ah Gui drew the pulp match, a surprising result completely destroyed the family. Ah Gui even suffered from leukemia. Pan Xuejun and his wife, who got the results, fell to the ground and cried with their headaches.
Just when Pan Xuejun and his wife were desperate and helpless, Wang Yuliang, who was far away in London, England, learned that his sister Wang Feng's family had suffered fatal blows one after another, and rushed to Dongguan to visit his unfortunate sister. From the beginning, Wang Yuliang opposed his sister's marriage to Pan Xuejun, who was 9 years older than her and divorced, and always regarded the pair of dragon and phoenix siblings as evil seeds. This time in Dongguan, he originally wanted to persuade his sister to give up this hopeless home and go to England with himself to start a new life. After a week of persuasion, my sister refused to go with him. The day before returning to England, Wang Yuliang came to the ward. The scene in front of him made him sad: the two young ladies and brothers were lying on the adjacent hospital bed.
At this time, the nurse came in and said that the medicine was only enough to give a child platelets, urging Wang Feng to renew the fee. Ah Ting, who was originally weak and weak, immediately squeezed out a smile and said, "Mom, look at me, is my spirit and temperament particularly good?" I don't need to 'suck blood' today! "After saying that, I also made a cute grimace." At this time, an anxious voice rushed out: "Mom, you don't listen to my sister, you look at my muscles, I'm strong, I don't need platelets, I don't need today, I don't need tomorrow the day after tomorrow!" "Pull up your sleeves while showing off your biceps." Wang Yuliang looked in his eyes, and in the blurred tears, the past seemed to be relieved. That day, after he made up his mind, he called Out to Pan Xuejun and Wang Feng to say his decision: "Although I want to save both sisters and brothers, my conditions can only afford one." Save your sister or brother, you decide! ”
This is clearly hope, but it is also despair! In terms of medical conditions, the one who can go to the UK for treatment means that the chances of having a child are greater. Calculating and calculating, Pan Xuejun and his wife were incomparably entangled. Those few nights, Pan Xuejun, who was guarding the hospital, had insomnia all night, and the palms of his hands and the backs of his hands were full of meat. One by one, he caressed the sleeping faces of the sisters and brothers, and they were not close enough, not enough love... Suddenly, several hot teardrops dripped on Ah Gui's face. Ah Gui woke up, and he hugged Pan Xuejun: "Dad, my sister's condition is worse than mine." If you can only live one, then save your sister first! Ah Gui's words made Pan Xuejun no longer be able to hold back his grief, and the father and son cried out for a while, and the tears flowed for one night.
On August 6, Ah Ting followed her uncle out of China. Before getting on the plane, Aguisse gave her sister a spongebob pillow, which Ah Gui picked up a drink bottle to save money for her sister to buy. Weak Ah Ting, tears rushing out, caressed her brother's face with her hand, and her heart was cut like a knife. Looking at her sister's distant back, Ah Gui cried with tears in her heart... Since then, the sisters and brothers have been separated by each other across the ocean, and Ah Gui's thoughts about his sister have flooded. No matter how Much Pan Xuejun and his wife comforted him, Ah Gui always looked like he had lost his soul, and his parents tried everything to coax him, but to no avail. One day, when Pan Xuejun took Ah Gui for a walk in the hospital, he suddenly saw a girl who looked like a sister walking in front. He was so happy that he shouted "Sister A" and ran up to hug her, only to find that it was a strange girl. One night they got up to cover Ah Gui with a quilt, and heard Ah Gui's sister in his sleep. At this time, Wang Yuliang also called from the United Kingdom, and at present, Ah Ting is treated at the Circle Bath Hospital (Bath Circular Hospital) in London, but Ah Ting is also overly missing her brother, and her condition is getting worse and she is in a severe coma.
In order to understand the pain of the love between the two young brothers, Pan Xuejun decided to let them video every day. One day, Ah Gui deliberately dressed up as her sister's favorite SpongeBob SquarePants and appeared in the video. Looking at her brother's cute appearance, Ah Ting felt a warm current rise from the bottom of her heart, and hot tears flowed out. She murmured, "Brother, my sister is so happy!" My sister is not afraid of death, she is afraid that she will never see you again! Ah Gui cried out, "Sister, you have to treat your illness well, I am waiting for your healthy return!" Finally, the daily video meeting brought strong life force to the sisters and brothers. In order to support her brother, "Rapunzel" Ah Ting cut off a black hair and actively and bravely faced the treatment with Ah Gui.
Encouraged and courageous, Ah Ting regained her strength and began cutting-edge and advanced treatment at Circle Bath Hospital in London. Dr. Tolu, Arting's attending physician, used a drug called Tenovin to increase the p53 protein content in Arting's cells, thereby intensifying the death of cancer cells. It turns out that in leukemia cells, this Tenovin drug can interfere with their self-phagocytic process, which cancer cells use to protect themselves during stress. After taking the medicine for a period of time, Ah Ting's condition began to be controlled, and her face gradually became rosy.
However, bone marrow transplantation is still urgent. The success of the match depends on HLA, the basis on which the immune system distinguishes between ontology and allogeneic substances. The lower the degree of HLA compatibility, the easier it is to cause rejection. The odds of matching between different nationalities and races are low. When Dr. Toru learned of the touching experience of Ah Ting's sister and brother, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said movingly: "You have such a good brother, I believe that God will be moved!" He began to actively help Ah Ting find the source of bone marrow. Two weeks later, the good news finally came that an Asian man named Cui Jun had successfully matched Ah Ting.
A Sino-British transnational foreign-related donation kicked off nervously. On May 2, 2015, the donor, Cui Jun, was admitted to the hospital. In addition to injecting mobilizers to increase the number of peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells, a blood routine was also done. After the examination, Cui Jun's physical state did not have any adverse reactions. On the same day, 200 ml of hematopoietic stem cells were collected from Cui Jun's peripheral blood, and the whole process lasted for four hours. At 4 p.m., the incubator containing the "seeds of life" was escorted by British medical staff into the Circle Bath Hospital laboratory for separation and dissolution. Two hours later, Cui Jun's hematopoietic stem cells slowly flowed into Ah Ting's body, and the transplant operation was successfully completed.
On May 23, After 21 days in the sterile cabin, after bone piercing, blood tests and other physical examination results showed that there was no rejection reaction, all her vital signs were no different from ordinary people, and in two months, she could get out of the cabin. The good news soon spread to China, and after Ah Gui learned that his sister's operation was successful, he danced happily: "My sister can be cured, and I also have hope to be cured!" ”
However, the more sensible the son, the more painful The Pan Xuejun and his wife. It turned out that Ah Gui's condition at this moment was not optimistic. Ah Gui's teeth and mouth began to bleed continuously, and even the whites of his eyes appeared blood red spots. The couple has gone on debt, and Ah Gui can only do conservative treatment, relying on the delivery of platelets and blood to maintain life. When Ah Ting learned that her brother was still suffering from illness and struggling with the disease, she said that she would quickly recover, raise her body and return to China, and firmly accompany her brother to fight!
