Recently, the story of Xing Yifan, an undergraduate freshman at Beijing University of Astronautics, has aroused public attention, and netizens have been impressed by his perseverance and persistence, calling it a model of "fate by me".
On September 6, Xing Yifan's father issued a dynamic response to public concerns, saying that the child was the pride of his family.
Mr. Xing Yifan's father, Mr. Xing, said that he was very grateful to Dr. Xiong Hui and his team at Peking University Hospital, although his son suffered from a rare disease, fortunately, Dr. Xiong Hui and his team have been treating their son and have been following up for many years. Three years ago, my son made a promise with Dr. Xiong Hui that he would be admitted to a university in Beijing and would see each other often in the future, and now this wish has finally come true.
On September 2, Xing Yifan reported to Beihang Airlines, and he was also the first student among the new undergraduate students in the class of 2021 to report. On the same day, a number of experts from Peking University Hospital jointly conducted a free consultation for Xing Yifan, and 6 teachers of Beihang Airlines also participated in the consultation, and worked with doctors to study ways to enable Xing Yifan to learn and live on campus with quality.
After the free clinic, Xing Yifan, accompanied by his parents, checked into the dormitory in advance. The room is located on the first floor of the dormitory, with easy access, two beds inside, and separate bathroom and air conditioning.
In the future, Xing Yifan's mother will accompany him here through the rest of his university life. In addition, the room is also equipped with mobile table cabinets, storage boxes and other items, and the college also coordinates the access control, dormitory electricity and the use of electrical appliances in advance.
Mr. Xing once said that he was grateful to Beihang for accepting them, and when the school's admissions teacher said on the phone that the rest was left to them, he identified Beihang.
Since Xing Yifan went to school, his path to study has been more difficult than that of ordinary people. Because he had suffered from LAMA2-related congenital muscular dystrophy since childhood, his muscles could hardly grow, and his biggest exercise was to sit. This disease is a kind of frostbite, looking at the whole country, there are less than 100 people with diseases.
But fortunately, Xing Yifan met good teachers in the process of studying, and they helped and took care of him to complete his studies. There are also his former tablemates, because of their company, Xing Yifan can learn and live in a happy atmosphere.
Xing Yifan's parents have been accompanying him to study and support him to complete his dreams. They earn money while taking care of the children, and when they go to bed at night, they also get up every two hours to help their son turn over.
Because of the illness, Xing Yifan weighs only 18 kilograms, and he can only sit and listen to a class for 30 minutes at most, and the rest of the time can only lie down. Even turning the pages was difficult for him to complete with one hand. His head was also atrophied by the neck muscles, and he could hardly turn it independently, and he could only prop his head on the table with his chin, and his eyes could only see half of the book.
Even so, Xing Yifan was still insisting on studying, and he wanted to go further and see where he could go. With only a little muscle in his hands, he brushed one test paper after another, and at most he had to do more than 20 a day, often staying up until one or two o'clock in the night, tired enough to dip the pillow.
Emperor Tian did not pay off, and Xing Yifan finally realized his dream of Beihang with a score of 645 points.
Some netizens recalled that they accompanied the admissions teacher to Jilin No. 1 Middle School on behalf of the Beihang Jilin Alumni Association, where they met Xing Yifan's parents. The netizen also remembered that Xing Yifan's father introduced the child's condition in detail, and the teacher answered his doubts one by one. Finally, Xing Yifan's father wore a mask and kept wiping his tears by the playground guardrail. At that moment, netizens felt the difficulty of the couple.
Xing Yifan said that he is determined to become China's "Hawking" and complete his "space dream". Because in the absence of gravity in space, he can soar as freely as others.
