In 2010, this day should have been a plain and warm day for Gao Dejin's family. Gao Dejin drove an electric tricycle, carried his two-year-old daughter in his arms, and his wife Zhang Rongxiang sat next to him, and the family went to visit relatives at his mother-in-law's house.
However, who would have expected that at a busy intersection, a speeding sedan suddenly rushed out, and the violent collision caused the tricycle to roll over in an instant and fall far to the ground.
Gao Dejin and Zhang Rongxiang lost consciousness in an instant, and suffered multiple fractures all over their bodies. Fortunately, at the time of life and death, Zhang Rongxiang tried her best to throw her daughter into the grass on the side of the road, and although she was slightly injured, her daughter was able to save her life.
The unconscious couple were rushed to the hospital for treatment. When he woke up, he was in great pain, but what worried him more was his wife's condition. Doctors diagnosed Zhang Rongxiang with a variety of diseases such as primary brainstem injury, severe head injury, and brain contusion, and has fallen into a deep vegetative state, with a survival rate of only 7%.
Despite his despair, he was determined to treat his wife and protect the family with his own strength. He raised money from all over the place, and his body gradually recovered so that he could spend more time with his wife.
It turned out that a month before the car accident, Zhang Rongxiang was already pregnant. Due to the fact that he has been in a coma, this news has not been known. During the examination, the doctors were surprised to find that Zhang Rongxiang's weight had plummeted, her abdomen was slightly bulging, and it was calculated that she was exactly three months pregnant.
Faced with this shocking discovery, Gao Dejin was faced with a grim realistic choice. On one side is the fragile life of the wife, and on the other side is the unborn child. To hold on or to give up? Gao Dejin was caught in a difficult choice.
Faced with the astonishing fact that his wife was pregnant, the attending physician had a heated argument with the obstetrician. The attending doctor believes that Zhang Rongxiang is a vegetative person, and the fetus is very unlikely to survive in her body, and she will have to endure great physical pain during pregnancy, so he recommends that the pregnancy be terminated immediately.
However, obstetricians are adamantly opposed to this view. For special cases like Ms. Zhang's, he said, termination of pregnancy could be more risky. Even for ordinary pregnant women, there is a certain danger in terminating pregnancy, not to mention that Zhang Rongxiang is currently in a vegetative state, and the potential risks are difficult to estimate.
Siren is especially Mr. Gao Dejin, who is facing a difficult dilemma. As a husband, he naturally hoped that his wife, the weak and strong woman, would survive this crisis, but as a father, how could he be ruthless enough to kill the new life that was growing in the womb of a pregnant woman? After rational and painful deliberation and weighing, in the end, he resolutely chose to preserve the life of the fetus.
The road ahead will undoubtedly be very tortuous and difficult, but Mr. Goldkin is still full of hope. He is confident that his wife and children will be safe and sound, and that they will be able to get through this most difficult time.
When Mr. Gao Dejin informed his only daughter, Gao Yun, of his decision, Gao Yun, the only seedling in the family, did not hesitate to put aside his studies for the time being and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the care of his family.
"Father, please rest assured, our family will work together to get through this difficult time!" Gao Yun said firmly, her eyes shining with incomparable tenacity.
In the face of his daughter's courage and responsibility, Mr. Gao Dejin felt extremely proud, and at the same time, his heart was full of deep guilt. He felt that he owed something to his daughter, and that he should have let her study in peace, but now he had to let her take on the heavy housework.
"Father, I'm sorry for you!" said Mr. Goldkin, choking up, tears rolling in his eyes. Gao Yun stepped forward, gently stroked her father's arm, and expressed her determination with silent comfort.
Thus, a special family was formed. They held hands and took care of the unconscious Zhang Rongxiang and their unborn child, although their daily life was full of hardships, their hearts were filled with endless warmth.
With the cost of treatment depleting all their family savings, they had to look for a new place to live, sometimes spending long nights in a garage. However, no matter how difficult life may be, the father and daughter always hope for a miracle.
As Zhang Rongxiang's pregnancy progressed day by day, the whole family was also filled with hope. Mr. Gao Dejin and Miss Gao Yun sincerely hoped for a miracle to happen, and their prayers were finally answered on an ordinary day.
On that day, Miss Gao Yun unexpectedly discovered that her mother, Zhang Rongxiang, was suffering from urinary incontinence. At first, she was a little flustered, but soon realized that this might be a harbinger of childbirth! Gao Yun immediately dialed her father's phone, and the father and daughter quickly sent Zhang Rongxiang to the delivery room of the hospital.
When the nurses witnessed a pregnant woman in a vegetative state being rushed into the hospital, the whole scene instantly fell into consternation. There was a look of surprise on everyone's face, because there were only two or three cases of this extremely rare case in the whole country.
The attending doctors can only rely on their rich clinical practice experience to go all out to give birth to Zhang Rongxiang, a vegetative patient during pregnancy. The extremely high stakes of this operation made everyone present feel a heavy pressure.
The atmosphere in the entire delivery room was tense and solemn.
Thankfully, after more than an hour of long waiting and suffering, the exciting news finally came -- the operation was a complete success, and the mother and child were safe! Zhang Rongxiang, a vegetative person, miraculously gave birth to a healthy baby boy weighing as much as 5.6 pounds.
At this moment, all the medical staff and family members present could not help but burst into tears. Gao Dejin was even more excited, and all his hard work and firm belief finally paid off.
He was deeply grateful for his perseverance and firmly believed that his wife and children would be able to overcome all difficulties.
The hopes and expectations of the family were also rekindled with the birth of this new life.
According to the doctor's advice, in order to awaken Zhang Rongxiang's consciousness as soon as possible, Gao Dejin and Gao Yun would whisper in her ear every day, describing in detail the daily life and growth of their son Tianci (taking this allegorical name), hoping that she would wake up after hearing the call of her relatives.
Despite the daily efforts of the sea and no response, the father and daughter still persevered day after day, and never gave up hope for a happy life.
Like the Gao Dejin family, there are many families who are still persevering in the face of many difficulties. As the old saying goes: "The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds."
Gao Dejin and Gao Yun interpreted this firm belief with practical actions.
Day after day, year after year, they are busy like a spinning top every day, taking care of Zhang Rongxiang and the young Tianci son in a coma, but they have never lost faith in a better life.
Gao Dejin always meticulously delivers hearty meals to his beloved wife when meals come, while Gao Yun, a housewife, focuses on preparing nutritious food for his younger siblings so that children can feel warm at the table.
After the meal, Tianci, who is only a few years old, will also actively participate in the work of taking care of his mother, sometimes taking the initiative to pick up a towel to wipe off the sweat stains on his mother's body, and gently massage his mother's shoulders and back, as if praying for his mother in that childish and innocent way.
Every member of the family is so harmonious, and despite the challenges and hardships of life, the deep friendship between them fills the family with laughter.
Gao Dejin often silently said to his wife in his heart: "Honey, you see, our family is actually very happy" He looks forward to his wife waking up as soon as possible to make their lives better.
However, just when everyone thought that this happy day would continue forever, a miracle happened! One day, when Gao Dejin was by his wife's side as usual and gossiped with her, Zhang Rongxiang miraculously spoke: "I have been cured.
Although her voice was faint and even a little slurred, it was undoubtedly an important signal that she had woken up! Gao Dejin was so excited that he burst into tears, and he had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
As a former vegetative patient, Zhang Rongxiang was able to regain her life after two years, which is simply a miracle of fate. According to relevant statistics, nearly half of the cases in vegetative people can regain consciousness within half a year.
However, with the passage of time, this probability will gradually decrease, not to mention the rare case like Zhang Rongxiang, who can still wake up after two years of sleep, by that time, her son Tianci has grown to more than a year old.
Since then, Zhang Rongxiang has not only successfully recovered, but also his physical condition has soared. Gao Dejin is often full of emotion: "It was that child who woke up our whole family!" The deep relationship between the mother and son made the whole family feel endless happiness and warmth.
Looking back on this difficult journey, Gao Dejin's family has gone through countless hardships. It can be difficult for the average person to understand how they managed to persevere in the face of adversity.
However, because of this, they know how to cherish everything they have now.
In the depths of Gao Dejin's memory, the most unforgettable scene for him was the moment when his wife Zhang Rongxiang miraculously woke up. At that time, he was telling an anecdote about his son's gift, when suddenly his wife opened her mouth and said the shocking words, "I am healed."
Gao Dejin was like hearing the wonderful sound of heaven, and his mood was agitated, and tears couldn't help but burst out of his eyes. From that moment on, the family seemed to be rejuvenated and entered a new stage of life that was more happy and happy.
Although the economic conditions are not as good as before, the affection between family members makes the home as warm as the sun.
Whenever he witnesses the warm picture of his wife and son laughing and laughing, Gao Dejin will always have endless emotion in his heart. He deeply realized that the power of family affection was so powerful, and it was this strong cohesion that enabled their family to survive that difficult and difficult time.
Today, Zhang Rongxiang's health has not fully recovered to her pre-illness level, but at least she has regained her joy in life. Sometimes, she even takes care of her son's clothes in person, and the figure of the mother and son looks extremely harmonious and warm.
The son Tianci showed extreme dependence on his mother, often holding his mother's hands and taking her to admire the flowers and trees in the courtyard.
The family lived together in harmony. Gao Dejin is sincerely grateful to God for the protection of their family, so that they not only successfully survived the difficulties of life, but also regained happiness.
He knows that this happiness is not easy to come by, and he will cherish it even more.
Looking forward to the future, Gao Dejin is full of confidence. He firmly believes that as long as the family works together and shares adversity and hardship, they will be able to write an extraordinary chapter in life. After all, they have proved with practical actions that "there is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of those who have a heart".
