Bao's mother was about to go into labor, and the family was full of expectations and happily sent her pregnant mother to the hospital. When the mother performed the delivery operation in the delivery room, the family members outside the delivery room were full of excitement, excitement and nervousness.
The child's grandfather and grandmother sighed on the sidelines, and the grandmother was even more at a loss, not knowing how to face this matter.
However, the birth of the baby was not as expected, and the doctor's expression was uneasy, and he looked at the baby with a little regret. Bao's mother's heart clicked, because the baby was not as cute as expected. The baby looks very fragile, his eyes have lost the radiance that a little baby should have, only humming moans, and every breath of the baby can see the rise and fall of the high span of the chest, which is obviously a big problem. The doctor told Baoma that her child was a "malformed" fetus with tetralogy of congenital heart disease.
But Bao's mother did not have mood swings, because she already knew it as early as 5 months in the second trimester.
It turned out that Bao's mother had a test in the second trimester, and the result was that this deformity was detected at that time. She almost fainted at the time, but she decided to stick with it because it was her child and she wasn't willing to give up easily. The doctor recommended ending the pregnancy early, but the mother refused, she felt that there was a possibility of misdetection in the prenatal examination, and she wanted to fight for a chance for the child.
In the months that followed, the mother did not undergo any prenatal check-ups and did not tell her family about this fact. She didn't want to experience that terrible feeling again, afraid that she would be overwhelmed by bad news.
The families waiting outside were very happy when they heard that the baby was born, and they all wanted to see the cute baby they imagined.
However, when they actually saw the baby, their expressions were completely different: the mother-in-law almost fainted, crying out sadly: "This child is 'wasted'", and tears could not stop flowing. Dad looked dazed, and the expression on his face changed instantly, mixed with various emotions. The child's grandfather and grandmother sighed. Seeing the performance of the family, Bao's mother said with a smile: "No matter what happens in the future, I will always accompany the baby." ”
The family finally slowly accepted this reality, and the mother-in-law also regretted her gaffe.
The eyes of the family looking at the baby are gradually full of love, as if the baby does not have any deformities and diseases, but is a healthy angel baby.
When the mood calmed down, the family asked the doctor some questions about tetralogy of Fallot. Dad wondered why the child was like this. The doctor explained that the formation of tetralogy of Fallot is related to genetics, environment, age of pregnant women and other factors, and age may be a factor. The doctor also details how to care for the child, especially during the treatment phase.
Although Dad knew that the days ahead would be full of challenges, he did not complain.
After all, Bao's mother is pregnant in October, and he must be strong as a husband. Eventually, the family slowly accepted this reality and understood that the life of the fetus is priceless.
This story sparked a discussion about the right to life of the fetus. Some people believe that the mother should end the pregnancy when she knows that the child is deformed, while others firmly believe that every life has the value of existence and has no right to deprive the fetus of life. This topic has sparked widespread social discussion, reflecting different views on people's right to life.
In a fast-paced life, we should pay more attention to the timing of childbearing and avoid advanced pregnancy at an advanced age to reduce it
Less risk of fetal malformations.
