As the sun shone softly in the spacious and comfortable living room like a mother's mother, Sang Lan sat quietly in her wheelchair, her eyes fixed on her husband Huang Jian and their lively and lovely children frolicking in the verdant garden.
An indescribable taste of happiness suddenly surged in my heart, like a clear spring flowing.
However, the smile on Sang Lan's face gradually eclipsed as she stared down at her flat abdomen. Deep down, she silently embraces an expectation - to add a new life to this loving and warm family.
However, after a thorough explanation and careful consideration by the doctor, she understood that it would not be easy to make this wish come true. As a high paraplegic, she will inevitably face great physical risks and pain during pregnancy and childbirth.
Even so, Sang Lan still firmly cherishes this beautiful vision, hoping that this dream will one day become a reality. She was secretly determined to ignite a new light of hope for the family, even if it cost her life.
Looking back on the past, how could the once heroic "Vaulting Queen" have predicted that she would one day face such a difficult choice in order to have children.
However, this is where the impermanence of fate lies, giving her endless hope, but also bringing many obstacles and challenges.
To understand Sang Lan's firm belief in her second child, we must trace her legendary life journey.
From an early age, Sunlan showed exceptional athletic talent. She is athletic and smooth, and she is familiar with any sport.
Soon, Sang Lan's parents recognized their daughter's extraordinary potential and decided to send her to a professional sports school for more systematic training.
In the harsh and arduous training environment, Sang Lan never showed the slightest weakness. She always faces every training session with a serious attitude, listens attentively to every word of guidance from the coach, and imprints it deeply in her heart.
In her spare time, she redoubled her efforts, repeatedly honed her basic movements, and constantly explored her infinite possibilities.
With her extraordinary talent and perseverance, Sang Lan quickly rose to prominence, and passed all the way to the provincial team and even the national team, becoming the core force of the national gymnastics team.
In that passionate and enthusiastic sports arena, Sang Lan refreshed countless proud and brilliant achievements with her outstanding skills and extraordinary talents, and even repeatedly held high the five-star red flag of the motherland and proudly stood at the top of the podium! Her superb performance made her win the famous praise of "Queen of Vaulting".
However, this achievement is not easy for idle people to achieve, but comes from Sang Lan's unwavering and persistent love for sports, as well as her indomitable fighting spirit.
She knows that if she wants to win more honors in this highly competitive arena, she must pay harder efforts and hard sweat than ordinary people.
However, just when her career was in full swing, the turning point of fate in 1998 quietly came, and a sudden accident completely overturned the trajectory of Sang Lan's life.
During a training session at the Friendship Games, Sang Lan suffered a serious injury, resulting in a permanent disability of high paraplegia, and there have been many controversies and speculations in all walks of life about the cause of this accident, which has also added endless difficulties and challenges to her long road of rights protection in the future.
Despite this, Sunlan eventually managed to secure a huge compensation of up to $1.8 billion, and it seems that he can completely shake off the shadow of the past and start a new life.
However, fate once again ruthlessly dealt her a heavy blow.
While undergoing rehabilitation in the United States, Sunlan had to live in a guardian's home for treatment. However, what is surprising is that this safe haven, which should have been warm and safe, turned out to be the place where she was subjected to the most brutal abuse.
One day, Sang Lan was immersed in a sweet dreamland, but was awakened by a noisy sound. It turned out that Xue Weisen's father, Sang Lan's guardian, had also participated in and connived at this heinous crime.
Fortunately, Sang Lan's personal doctor, Lu Ping, arrived in time to prevent the tragedy from worsening and avoid even more horrific consequences.
However, for Sang Lan, who was paralyzed in bed and lacked basic physiological knowledge, this was undoubtedly an even worse blow. When Lu Ping explained to her everything that had happened in the gentlest way possible, Sang Lan's eyes gradually changed from initial confusion to shock, and finally to despair and pain.
This once innocent and immaculate girl experienced the darkest day of her life. Her body and mind were once again ruthlessly devastated, as if all her previous efforts and struggles had come to naught.
Even the only glimmer of hope left in life seems to be facing the fate of being completely destroyed by this disaster!
After returning to China, Sang Lan fell into extreme isolation and pain, as if she had come to the end of her life. The pain she has endured is far beyond the limits of what ordinary people can bear!
However, to get rid of this shadow and restore faith in life is a difficult test for her!
When Sang Lan was physically and mentally exhausted, and was at the most bleak and hopeless moment, a warm dawn illuminated her dark life path.
This ray of light came from her close friend, who was also her later husband Huang Jian.
Huang Jianben was a brilliant fencer who later turned into Sang Lan's agent. At first, they were just an ordinary partnership, but as time passed, Huang Jian developed a deep sympathy and pity for the woman who had suffered the misfortune.
Seeing the once shining "Vaulting Queen" now move so hard and her life is in full trouble, Huang Jian deeply felt the loneliness and helplessness in her heart.
A strong desire gradually sprouted in his heart - he decided to use his companionship and love to warm and nourish this once vibrant, now on the verge of despair.
Therefore, from the beginning of his own work, Huang Jian did his best to take care of all the trivial matters of Sang Lan's life, and solved all kinds of troubles and problems in her daily life.
Whenever Sang Lan showed signs of exhaustion, he would always step up and take on more responsibility.
His thoughtfulness and meticulous care seeped into Sang Lan's inner world bit by bit, gradually filling the hole in her heart that was about to be broken.
In this way, the light ignited again in the dark life of Sang Lan. With the company of Huang Jian, her dear and beloved, she regained the courage and hope to survive, and was finally able to set off again and open a new chapter.
If Sang Lan's tenacity and positive attitude are the strong internal motivation of Sang Lan along the way, then these traits are also destined for her not to stop in the face of setbacks and tribulations.
After suffering such a fatal blow as high paraplegia, Sunlan also had to face a huge compensation of $1.8 billion and a shocking sexual assault incident in her guardian's home.
However, when the medical expert Dr. Lu Ping carefully revealed to her what had happened to her, we saw that her gaze was first confused, then gradually turned to deep shock, and finally filled with endless despair and pain.
However, just when everyone thought that she would completely collapse and fall into the abyss from which she could not extricate herself, Sang Lan gritted her teeth with amazing perseverance and always held on to her enthusiasm and hope for life.
It is this perseverance and perseverance that allowed her to finally get out of the predicament and regain the strength to live, and she is convinced that as long as life remains, there will always be the possibility of starting over.
When people ask her why she can face life so firmly and bravely, Sang Lan always replies passionately: "It stems from my love for sports, from my cherishing of the value of life, and from my firm belief in a better future."
"Life is amazing! When I feel the baby in my womb growing, I am fascinated by that sense of well-being. Whenever she saw her son's innocent smile, Sang Lan's eyes would always flash with tears of happiness.
It is this incomparable awe and love for life that gives her the courage and motivation to move forward.
Step by step, she finally gained Huang Jian, a lifelong trusted partner, and also had the precious gift of her son. It can be said that this is the whole meaning of what she is fighting for - even if she is in a desperate situation, she must fight for the dignity of life, never sink, never give up.
She perfectly interprets the life motto of "self-improvement and never give up" with practical actions.
The birth of her son brought Sang Lan an unprecedented sense of happiness and satisfaction. Whenever she stares at this innocent little life, a strong desire emerges in her heart - to add a new light of life to this happy family.
Today, Sang Lan has entered middle age and belongs to the ranks of elderly mothers. However, for her, it will undoubtedly be far more difficult to experience the difficult process of pregnancy and childbirth again.
As a disabled person with high paraplegia, she has lost all perception in her lower limbs, and she is unable to produce any movement effect from the waist down.
Faced with such a severe physical challenge, she will have to deal with both internal and external pressures during pregnancy and childbirth, and the level of risk is really unpredictable.
Sang Lan has always been determined to carry out various rehabilitation exercises, but despite many efforts, the spinal cord damage is still permanent and irreversible.
She was told by doctors that she would need to rely on certain therapeutic drugs for life to maintain her physiology, but these drugs must be used continuously during pregnancy.
Once she stops taking the medication, she is very vulnerable to various complications, such as high blood pressure, kidney dysfunction, etc., which will undoubtedly have a very adverse impact on the growth and development of the fetus.
In the face of such a harsh reality, ordinary people may have long been disheartened, but Sang Lan is determined to inject new life into the family. She secretly vowed that she would definitely give birth to the crystallization of love for herself and her husband Huang Jian, even if it required her life to risk for this.
"Although I know that this road will be extremely difficult, I am still willing to try and fight hard. Sang Lan's eyes were firm and her words were sonorous, "Becoming a mother is my greatest dream, and I will never choose to give up because of my physical defects."
Huang Jian stared at his wife's scrappy face, deeply moved by her courage. He stepped forward, hugged Sang Lan tightly, and whispered in her ear, "I will always support you and accompany you through any hardships and dangers."
So, with the help of relatives and friends and the careful care of the medical team, Sang Lan embarked on a nearly year-long journey to prepare for pregnancy, which was only the first step towards a more arduous and complicated journey to have a second child.
God of fate, have you ever foreseen that the tenacious and lively "Vaulting Queen" back then would now be desperate and life-or-death in order to have children?
This magnificent life course is full of endless twists and turns and legends, but it also highlights a woman's supreme pursuit of life and family.
