Preface
Illness is a scene that everyone does not want to face, but life and death are fate, many times when illness comes, it will not greet people, and illness comes like a mountain, and soon a person will lose the fighting spirit of life, and this is especially true for cancer.
Recently, there was such a case circulating, a girl because of cancer, almost spent all the money in the family to treat the disease, but the body has not improved, the girl's relatives found out, and came to persuade the girl to give up survival, so that her mother can live a better life.
Seven years of treatment costs a huge amount of money
Li Mingxin, this girl is only nineteen years old today, but the torture and pain she has experienced is definitely not proportional to her age, this little girl has now had seven years of anti-cancer experience, in this process, because her own will to survive is very strong, so she has been breaking the doctor's prediction.
When the cancer was first confirmed, the doctor said that her survival time was about five years, and it was difficult to cure, but Li Mingxin did not give up, and her mother did not give up, and even sold the family house and divorced her husband, and she had to treat Li Mingxin, even if she was in debt in the end, she felt that it didn't matter.
This may be the greatness of maternal love, but although Li Mingxin's mother can give for her without reservation, Li Mingxin's relatives don't think so, they once talked to Li Mingxin when she saw a doctor but never got better, and asked her to give up the chance to survive.
Li Mingxin was very angry about this, and her relatives kept saying that they were thinking about their mother, which was completely empty in her opinion, after all, the person her mother cared about the most was her, and if she really died, her mother would never be happy.
Li Mingxin was very angry at this kind of questioning by her relatives, and she even asked this relative that cancer was not what she hoped for, what she wanted was just to be able to live well, as a girl who was only nineteen years old, she had not experienced the beauty of the world, should she die.
Many people don't know that in fact, Li Mingxin's family is not very happy, her biological father has divorced her mother a long time ago and reorganized his family, so since she was a child, Li Mingxin has lacked her father's care.
Because she can only rely on her mother for her life, the relationship between mother and son is very good, Li Mingxin has been very sensible since she was a child, and she can understand her mother's hardships, and this mother has invested all her care and energy into her children.
At that time, some relatives saw that their mother and daughter were living so miserably, and they couldn't stand it anymore, and suggested to Li Mingxin's mother that they were looking for one to remarry, but the mother never agreed, and she thought about it relatively simply, mainly because she was worried that her stepfather would treat Li Mingxin badly.
But the development of things does not completely rely on human inhibition, slowly, Li Mingxin's mother found that in the growth environment without a father, Li Mingxin was bullied by a lot from classmates, and after she communicated with Li Mingxin, she decided to find her a stepfather.
Originally, at this time, the new family of three still had a happy home, and Li Mingxin's stepfather was also good to her, but no one expected that in 2012, Li Mingxin suddenly fell ill, and the disease developed very rapidly.
Rapid development of cancer
At first, Li Mingxin just felt that her leg hurt, but because she was growing at the time, most people thought she was growing pains, but as time went by, her pain became more and more severe, and there was no way, Li Mingxin's parents took her to the hospital for examination.
The results of the examination surprised the family, Li Mingxin not only had bone cancer, but also was already at an advanced stage, according to the doctor at the time, even if Li Mingxin was treated well from now on, she would only survive for five years.
Li Mingxin's parents refused to believe it, even Li Mingxin herself was blinded, why did she get cancer in a good way, they thought it was a misdiagnosis, and went to many hospitals for reexamination, but they got the same result, and now, the family finally believed the bad news.
In order to make Li Mingxin feel better, Li Mingxin's mother soon took her to start treatment, and since then, Li Mingxin has no way to go to school, she lives in the hospital all day long, losing her hair one by one, and her mental state has not become very good, and she has lost weight quickly.
Li Mingxin is a very sensible child, she will not cry because of the pain of her chemotherapy, but she will feel sorry that the cost of her chemotherapy is too expensive, will it cause a burden to her mother, whenever this time, Li Mingxin's mother will hold her and cry.
However, there is no way to hinder the development of the disease, even under the condition of active treatment, Li Mingxin's condition still deteriorated very seriously, and in the end, the doctor had to amputate his leg to save Li Mingxin's life.
Li Mingxin really wanted to go back to school, so after the amputation, she took the initiative to ask for a prosthetic leg for herself, and with the support of her mother, as long as her physical condition improved, she would start rehabilitation training, and even wear a wig all the time.
It was also at this time that Li Mingxin realized that he hadn't seen his father for a long time, and his mother's reply was that he was on a business trip, but Li Mingxin understood that his stepfather was not his biological father after all, and there was no need to be responsible for himself, he should have divorced his mother because of his own reasons.
Li Mingxin initially got some time to return to school after the amputation, but when she was in her third year of high school, her condition deteriorated again, this time so serious that there was no chance of buffering, and Li Mingxin was directly admitted to the ICU.
Seeing that her daughter's situation is getting more and more serious, Li Mingxin's mother sold the house in her hometown and paid for the child's treatment, but for Li Mingxin's relatives, they always feel that this practice is meaningless, after all, everyone knows that Li Mingxin can't get better, so the scene at the beginning of the article happened.
The curse of cancer
Li Mingxin was finally admitted to Peking University, and the doctor said that she could only live for five years, but now it is longer than five years, Li Mingxin is not alone in the struggle against death, at least by her side, there is a mother who wants to save her daughter even if she smashes the pot and sells iron.
Some time ago, there was a saying circulating on the Internet that the king of Hades came to the door and wanted to bring people back to the region, but at this time, the mother appeared and saved her child, and the mother can give the child the first life, and she can give the child a second life.
In fact, compared with the vast majority of cancer patients in China, Li Mingxin is already a very lucky person, she has spent almost two million dollars on treatment over the years, but many families may not even be able to afford one million in treatment costs.
This is a relatively common phenomenon in China, according to a study by Shandong University, in fact, many Chinese patients will give up treatment because they do not have the money, which accounts for as much as 10%.
In other words, one in ten cancer patients will have to give up treatment because of financial problems, and for cancer patients, if they can't solve this financial problem, they will only face death.
Even if she can barely borrow money, cancer is not a disease that can be stopped after a few years of treatment, and it will consume the money and energy of the cancer patient and her family for a long time, which is not something that ordinary people can imagine, and it is very difficult.
So where is the money spent by cancer patients, why can't they be reimbursed by medical insurance or the like, there are mainly four kinds of expenses, the first is the examination fee, which is different because of the different instruments used, the price will be different, but if there are more, it may cost tens of thousands of yuan for a single examination.
The second is the cost of surgery, many cancer patients need multiple surgeries, and the cost of each operation is around tens of thousands of yuan, and the third is the cost of chemotherapy and drugs.
But these costs, it is difficult to go through the normal medical insurance, and in addition to these expenses, often need to bear the cost of transportation, accommodation, etc., the key cancer is not to spend money to eliminate the disaster, the money can be taken out of the person, cancer also has a risk is that the money is spent, but the person is gone.
So once the poor have cancer, they can only wait for death, in fact, no, the first thing is to carefully check the scope of medical insurance, because of the improvement of the national system, there are now some cancer drugs, which are also within the scope of medical insurance reimbursement.
The second is to use various means of the Internet, such as publicizing their deeds, so as to participate in crowdfunding, which is also the most used method, there are still some well-wishers on the Internet, even if everyone gives ten yuan, the sum of this amount will not be less.
If you still don't have the money, the last way is to participate in clinical trials, although this sounds more risky, but it can be used in people, it must have been tested many times, which is the last way out.
