I am an ordinary college graduate named Zheng Xiaoxiao, 23 years old this year. I have a younger brother who is 5 years younger than me, named Li Tianze. He has not been in good health since he was a child, and last year he was diagnosed with kidney disease and needed a kidney transplant as soon as possible. It hit my parents hard, and they put all their time and energy into finding organs for him.
Just last week, my mom called me out of the blue to tell me that they had been registering at major hospitals for a long time, but? Appropriate organs still do not appear. After thinking about it, my parents hoped that I could consider artificial insemination, and then beat the fetus and transplant the kidney to Tianze. I couldn't believe my ears when I heard the news.
"Mom, what are you talking about? Let me conceive and then get rid of the baby? How can this be!" I said excitedly.
"Xiaoxiao, Mom knows that this request is very difficult, but for the sake of your brother, we have no choice. Tianze is still so young, he can't just leave us. Mom, please, just help us. Mom cried.
"Mom, I can understand your anxiety, but I can't do it if I sacrifice my child like this." I said bitterly.
"Just help us this time, when Tianze's surgery is completed, we will give you everything you want." Mom pleaded.
I hung up the phone, my hands tightly over my mouth, and I couldn't believe that this was my life. In order to save my younger brother, my mother even asked me to give birth to a child just to donate organs. My heart felt like it was torn in half, painful and helpless.
I sent a message to my best friend, Xiaoyu, telling her what my mother had requested. Xiaoyu immediately called me to comfort me.
"Xiaoxiao, calm down, don't be in a hurry to agree to your mother's request. You can't be sloppy. Xiaoyu said.
"What should I do? I can't give up my brother, but I can't do without my own children. I said pleadingly.
"Well, I think you should go to the hospital to see the situation and ask the doctor's opinion. Don't just say yes. "Xiaoyu persuaded me.
The next day, I plucked up the courage to go to Tianze's attending doctor. After the doctor's examination, I told me that Tianze's condition had reached the stage where he needed to have a kidney replacement as soon as possible, and he was afraid that he would not live for a year without kidney replacement. However, the possibility of a kidney exchange cannot be entirely pinned on the internal kidney donation of a loved one. I listened to it even more hesitant and desperate.
I called my mom back and told her about the doctor's diagnosis. My mother was even more adamant that I should conceive and have a baby. Dad begged me again and again. I had a big fight with them and ran back to my dorm and cried all night. I understand that my parents are helpless, but I really can't make up my mind.
After a few days, after repeated pleas from my parents, I finally nodded my head and agreed to their request. My parents immediately took me to a hospital for IVF. I lay on the operating table, tears flowing, and my heart was like a knife. The doctor injected sperm into my uterus to complete the conception. I closed my eyes, and my mind was full of the child who was about to be killed by me before he was born.
The first child soon had a heartbeat. I began to have symptoms of morning sickness, and my mother called every day to ask me for warmth, telling me to take care of my body. My heart was heavier than ever, and sometimes I would cry uncontrollably suddenly. I started secretly going to the psychiatrist behind my parents' back, but all kinds of treatments couldn't really let me go.
When I was 3 months pregnant, I was scheduled to go to the hospital for an abortion. The thought of losing this child made my heart cut like a knife, and I couldn't cry.
I came to the hospital alone. Mom and Dad were not around, and they were afraid that I would regret it temporarily, so they deliberately did not accompany me. I was wheeled into the operating room by a nurse with mixed feelings.
"Sir, what you have to do is the right choice. Your child will appreciate yours. The doctor patted me on the shoulder and said. I knew he had misunderstood me for the purpose of donating my organs.
I lay numb on the operating table, a tear running down the corner of my eye. "I'm sorry," I whispered the last words to the baby in my belly.
With a "click", my world suddenly spun around. "Don't!" I sat up abruptly and shouted. The doctors and nurses were taken aback.
"Sir, calm down, we need surgery." The doctor advised.
"No, I've changed my mind. I can't hurt my kids!" I held my stomach and shook my head desperately.
"Have you thought it through? If you don't knock it out, your family will probably find it difficult to understand. The doctor said.
"I don't care! Children also have the right to live. I'm left to fend for myself!" I wiped away my tears and said firmly.
I rushed out of the hospital as if I were running away. Mom kept calling, but I didn't answer. I knew I had to run away from home at this point or they would force me to have an abortion again.
I hid in a rented house and chatted with Xiaoyu every day for support. She is my most important spiritual pillar. I got a part-time job again, trying to save money to support myself and my unborn children.
"Xiaoxiao, you did a good job. It is right to choose to protect your child. Xiaoyu told me that every time.
I gradually felt better and began to look forward to the arrival of this child. I gently stroked my pregnant belly and poured out my love to the baby. I swear I will give him the best life.
In this way, 9 months passed quickly, and I gave birth to a lovely baby boy. I named him Li Tianxing. Tianxing has thick black hair and big watery eyes, which is really angelic and cute.
"Tianxing, mom will always protect you and won't let anyone hurt you." I hugged Tianxing and whispered.
At that moment, the door to the ward was suddenly opened. Mom and Dad came here.
"Xiaoxiao, it's really you!" Mom said in surprise.
I clung to Tianxing vigilantly, for fear that they would hurt my child.
"You cut off our ties, do you know how worried we are?" Mom said anxiously and angrily.
"I can't watch my children get killed by you." I said coldly.
"Xiaoxiao, you also gave birth to a baby, you must be able to understand the mood of being a parent." The mother smiled wryly and said, "We didn't really want to hurt you and your child, we were just desperate and didn't know what to do." ”
I listened to my mother's words, and my heart softened. I know they made that choice out of love for Tianze.
"Mom, I understand your difficulties, but life is just as precious. I can't sacrifice my children just because I love Tianze. Do you say?" I whispered.
"Yes, we were wrong." My mother said with tears in her eyes, "Seeing you holding Tianxing, I suddenly felt how cruel it was to do it at the beginning. The miracle of life is something that no one has the right to trample on. ”
"I'm really relieved to hear you say that." I also shed tears.
"Tianxing is so cute, my mother has been completely conquered. In the future, we will definitely treat him as our own. Mom laughed and teased Tianxing.
"So what are we going to do next? Tianze's illness still needs to be treated. I asked worriedly.
"We will continue to register in the hospital and consider other treatments as well. Even if we can't wait for the right organs, we can't blindly harm lives as we did in the past. Dad said firmly.
I reconciled with my parents and finally let go of my worries. Together, we tried to find a way to raise funds for Tianze's treatment, and at the same time, I did my best to take care of Tianxing.
We had a quiet time. However, the good times did not last long, and Tianze's condition suddenly deteriorated. The doctor said that if he couldn't find a suitable kidney source within a month, Tianze would really not be able to survive.
"No, I can't watch Tianze leave!" Mom cried. Dad clenched his fists as well, tears rolling in his eyes.
I was anxious, but I didn't know what to do. I can't think about giving Tianxing's kidneys to Tianze anymore, I have to protect my children.
"Mom, Dad, we can't rush it. Tianxing is still too young to donate a kidney. We can continue to wait for the matching organs, or we can consider kidney replacement surgery. There's always a way. I comforted.
"But we can't afford to wait, there's not much time left." Mom said desperately.
Even so, harming lives is not the answer. We have to think of something else. Perhaps the family could move to an area where the organs are more likely to be matched, or more avenues could be opened to find a donor. "I was desperately thinking about other possibilities.
We fell silent. The whole home was clouded. Yet I know that we will get through this and that nothing can take away our hope in life.
Just as we were in despair, a phone call broke the silence. It turned out to be a phone call from the hospital, telling us that a suitable kidney source had appeared!
"Really? There are eyes in the sky!" Mom shouted excitedly, tears welling up in her eyes.
We rushed to the hospital immediately, and the doctor said that this time the kidney source was very well matched, and the operation could be carried out directly. Tian Ze was quickly pushed into the operating room.
"Tianze, you must hold on." I clenched Tianze's delicate little hand, afraid that it would be the last one.
"Sister, I'm going to get better." Tian Ze smiled reluctantly, his eyes full of strength.
The long wait is finally over. The doctor told us that the surgery was a great success! The new kidney is adapting well, and Tianze is out of danger.
"Thank you so much, Heaven's favor." Mom kept burning incense on Tianze's hospital bed, and made a wish that she would do more good deeds to repay the society.
After a few days, Tianze's physical condition was getting better and better, and his spirit became very uplifted. The new kidney completely saved his life.
"Tianxing, thank you for letting me continue to live." Tianze happily hugged Tianxing. I saw that the two brothers were in a good relationship, and I also let go of the last worries.
My parents were very grateful for my persistence and did not make the wrong choice out of despair. They apologized to me again and again, saying that they would always support me and Tianxing.
"Xiaoxiao, it was our mistake at the beginning, you are the angel who protects life." Mom's eyes were full of pride.
I let out a long sigh of relief. Our family was finally reunited and had a happy time that we had not seen for a long time.
However, just when we were immersed in joy, a sudden news broke us - it was Tianze's classmate Xiao Ming who donated a kidney!
It turned out that when he learned that Tianze was in critical condition, Xiao Ming took the initiative to contact the hospital and voluntarily donated a kidney. A child who is not yet 10 years old selflessly saves his friend in this way.
"Xiao Ming, thank you so much! We're sure to give it our all when you need it. "I hugged Xiao Ming and cried bitterly, and I was shocked by his kindness.
"Sister, it's right to save a friend, don't thank me too much." Xiao Ming said shyly.
From this incident, I realized that the power of life is infinite. As long as we don't give up hope, miracles will always happen. We have no control over the outcome, but we can choose to protect lives. This is also the faith we must hold on to in times of despair.
I also understand once again that hurting someone's life is never the solution to the problem. We must face the world with love and kindness in order to illuminate the value of life.
Through all this, I have seen the preciousness of life. Every life is a miracle and should be treated gently.
I decided to become a volunteer and joined an agency that specializes in helping with organ matching. I hope to help more patients who are waiting for their organs to get treatment.
"What happened to you is unfortunate, but it makes you loving." The head of the organization said to me.
There, I met many children like Tianze, as well as their anxious family members. I did my best to help and support them. I also encourage more people to sign up as organ donors.
One day, a very impatient mother came to the institution. Her child needed a heart transplant, but a suitable organ was not available.
"Help me find a heart, I can't wait!" She yelled unreasonably.
I calmly spoke to her, shared my experiences, and expressed the preciousness of life. Eventually, she calmed down and said she would be patient. A week later, her baby was successfully matched with a heart.
"Thank you for saving my child and for saving me." She held my hand tightly and burst into tears.
I'm very pleased. I know that there are always miracles in life, and the key is that we must keep hope.
Tianxing and Tianze also gradually grew up. They all became kind-hearted children. I always tell them to cherish the miracle of life and never hurt others.
"Mom, you have taught me the most precious thing in life." Tianxing said to me gratefully.
"You're the one who makes mom more loving." I hugged Tianxing and sighed at the cycle of life.
Through all those joys and sorrows, I became a better person. I know that with good intentions, the tree of life will bear fruit and the light of hope will reappear. This is also what I want to say to Tianxing and Tianze the most-
When faced with a life-and-death decision, when faced with a test of faith, please always believe in the power of life. The night will pass, and the dawn will come. As long as we protect the dignity of life in the name of love, miracles will continue to be staged.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Tianxing and Tianze have grown up and started their own work and life.
Tianxing learned to paint, and his paintings always captured the essence of life, depicting people's attachment and hope for life and love. He often said that it was inspired by the stories I told as a child.
Tian Ze became a doctor, working in a pediatric ward, specializing in treating children in distress. Tian Ze always told sick children that the power of life is stronger than any disease.
"I am alive today thanks to the selfless donation of a child. So I know that as long as we don't give up, miracles will happen. Tian Ze would say this to the little patient.
I am very relieved to see that both Tianxing and Tianze have become people who help others. My story has changed their lives and taught them to love life more.
Mom and Dad and I are in our twilight years, but we're still active. I'm still volunteering at the Organ Matching Agency, and my mom and dad often come to help.
"You taught us the meaning of life." Mom and Dad always thanked me like that.
I shook my head and said, "No, it's the beauty of life that changes each of us."
Our family had a simple and satisfying time. When I hugged my grandchildren and looked at their innocent smiling faces, I was even more convinced of the eternity of life.
I often think back to those difficult times many years ago. How vulnerable and desperate we were at that time, but we still did not give up on choosing to love and protect life. Now it seems that it was a turning point in life.
My only regret is that I didn't be able to express my gratitude to Xiao Ming in person. Many years ago, he died of illness at the age of fifteen. But his good deeds will live forever in our hearts.
At the end of my life, I told Tianxing and Tianze all this. This is the most precious spiritual wealth of our family.
"Always remember that the miracles of life are everywhere. With kindness and love in our hearts, we can work miracles. ”
With that, I passed away peacefully. I know that the river of life never ends, and that love and kindness will be passed on from generation to generation.
