1. Families struggling under the shackles of fate
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, we have stepped into the spring of March 2009. A farmer's family in a small village in Hunan Province is burning with hope for the future of a family of three, that is, the second daughter of Liang Zhongnan and his wife.
The two worked silently for life, they were looking forward to the arrival of a new life, thinking that it would be the most beautiful scenery in their hearts, however, God played a merciless joke with them.
The red light on the delivery bed finally turned green, but the due date had passed for a full ten months. The nurses walked around worriedly, without the laughter they used to have.
Liu Xinglian was lying on the hospital bed, sweat dripping down, and her tired husband Liang Zhongnan was anxiously pacing in the ward, his heart full of anticipation for his newborn daughter.
"Congratulations, you're a lovely girl!" The doctor was holding the newborn with a complicated and regretful expression on his face, "But...... She was born weighing only two pounds and a tael, and suffered from an extremely rare condition called Zecker syndrome.
Hearing this bad news, Liu Xinglian's tears slipped down like beads of broken threads, and she held Liang Zhongnan's hand tightly, her heart full of despair and pain. Liang Zhongnan was also caught off guard by this sudden blow, and he began to question why life was so cruel.
He still clearly remembers the hardships of his wife's pregnancy, and now his efforts are in exchange for such an ending.
The doctor patiently explained to them that Zecker syndrome can seriously affect the child's brain and mental development, and that there is no cure for this congenital condition. Liang Zhongnan knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face, and said tremblingly: "Are we going to give up on her like this?" She's our own flesh and blood! Liu Xinglian nodded firmly, used all her strength, and decided to fight for her daughter to the end.
2. The trial of fate
In order to raise high medical expenses for his newborn daughter, Liang Zhongnan resolutely left his hometown and went to a city hundreds of kilometers away alone to find a job opportunity.
He gave up all his dignity and pride, and was willing to do menial work such as heavy manual labor and porterage, just to be able to earn more money.
At the same time, Liu Xinglian was alone at home taking care of the newborn child. The little body is much thinner than a normal baby, and the crying voice is so weak that it is distressing.
Her large, striking eyes, slightly open lips, and round, full-fledged oval head, resembled a lively and cute little monkey, which undoubtedly brought discussion and ridicule to the village.
Some people are even more cruel, directly calling the little existence "ugly and deformed".
The most cruel thing is that there are circus personnel who break into their doors, trying to buy Xiaoxiao at a high price and display it as a "monster show" to make a profit.
Liu Xinglian was like an angry lioness at that time, her whole body trembled, and she angrily rebuked the rude man.
She clenched her fists tightly and stared at her infant daughter, her eyes filled with deep love and endless pity.
Just as the family was in despair, a glimmer of light crept in. Some kind-hearted people posted their plight on the Internet, which aroused the sympathy of the majority of netizens and generously donated money to help.
Liang Zhongnan was finally able to stop and rest, receive treatment, and his body gradually recovered. And Liu Xinglian can finally temporarily put down the heavy responsibility on her shoulders and take care of her daughter wholeheartedly.
3. The fight against the disease
Although they have survived the disaster, there is still no improvement in the small condition. Her parents waited by her side day and night, looking forward to her healthy growth.
The little one grew at an unusually slow rate, and by the time she was four years old, she was only 54 centimeters tall and weighed far from normal.
Compared with children of the same age, Xiaoxiao seems to have become an "eternal baby". She was unable to talk, play, go to school and read freely like other children, and her whole being was bound by this rare disease.
Whenever her parents saw her immature face, they always couldn't help but shed tears.
Because of the distortion of her appearance, Xiaoxiao has not been able to have a close friend for a long time. Every time she goes out, Liu Xinglian always wraps her tightly with a wide scarf, lest the strange gaze from the outside world hurt her fragile self-esteem.
The whispers and whistles in the streets still pierce through the layers of obscure, piercing the hearts of mother and daughter like sharp knives.
In the face of the tricks of fate, this ordinary rural couple never gave up. For the sake of Xiaoxiao, they began to run around to seek medical help, and accumulated enough funds to travel thousands of miles to find famous doctors.
For a while, the parents had to leave their young children in the care of relatives and friends in the countryside because they needed to travel far away for treatment. However, each separation made Little Little cry incessantly, and she seemed deeply worried that she would never see her dear parents again.
Even so, under the selfless care and love of her parents, her little life is still full of sunshine, and her physical and mental condition is gradually improving. Despite the numerous difficulties and challenges she has experienced, as long as she can stay healthy, they should be immensely proud as parents.
Fourth, the great power of maternal love
In the long and combative growth process of her childhood, Liu Xinglian has undoubtedly become the closest and most important person in her life. This simple rural woman, with her endless gentleness and patience, took care of this poor "little life" and used her thin body to build an indestructible spiritual defense line for her daughter.
By the time he was seven years old, he could barely communicate with people, albeit with vague pronunciation and simple and clear phrasing. Liu Xinglian was always by her side, teaching her to learn words and leading her to explore the mysteries of this world.
She patiently corrected the movements of her little lips and tongue, and demonstrated the correct pronunciation over and over again until her daughter was able to express her thoughts clearly and fluently.
Despite the slow progress, Liu Xinglian never showed the slightest boredom or frustration. On the contrary, she is often moved to tears by her little progressive performance.
Whenever Xiaoxiao was able to recite a nursery rhyme or ancient poem fluently, she seemed to see the light of hope for her daughter to rekindle her life. And Xiaoxiao also seems to understand her mother's hard work, and has become extremely sensible and obedient, and will never let all her mother's efforts come to naught.
As time passed, the children in the same village began to accept Xiaoxiao and took the initiative to invite her to participate in various game activities. Despite her unusual appearance, she is pure and kind-hearted, considerate of the needs of others everywhere, and quickly won everyone's love and respect.
Watching her daughter gradually get rid of loneliness and step into the track of normal life, Liu Xinglian was relieved, feeling that the years were quiet, and the burden in her heart was lightened a lot.
Today, at the age of 14, although her height is still slightly lower than that of ordinary children, she is already able to take care of daily chores independently. She likes to set up a few small stalls at the entrance of the village to sell her own trinkets and handicrafts.
1. The Extraordinary Mother, deeply moving
Despite the difficulties in life, she is still fearless and shows the tenacity and perseverance of motherhood! With the power of maternal love, Liu Xinglian led the whole family to move forward bravely, in order to save the young girl Xiaoxiao who was suffering from rare diseases, she carried her bags, strode forward, and bravely met the challenges of life.
She weaves the happiness that belongs to the little one with her own hands, and uses her sweat and tears to water a beautiful flower Her efforts, her persistence, and her selfless dedication are touching and admirable!
Second, mother's love is boundless, and filial piety can be learned
Her daughter is a little one, the most precious gift that God has given her. Xiaoxiao used her own actions to interpret what filial piety is. She paid her respects to her by paying her deepest respect by using part of her hard-earned money to satisfy her own preferences and partly to buy her mother's beloved jewelry.
Whenever they see their daughter's growth bit by bit, Liu Xinglian and Liang Zhongnan will feel extremely proud, and they are convinced that this is the best reward from God.
3. The miracle of life, the power of love
Although Xiaoxiao has been different from ordinary people since birth, her physical functions have always been in a healthy state. Her neatly arranged, jade-white teeth glow like the sun every time she smiles, warming everyone around her.
Although she is petite in height compared to her peers, she does not suffer from any other physical disabilities, and because of this, her tenacious vitality brings endless hope and courage to her parents, who care for her wholeheartedly and pour all their love into this dear and beloved child.
Fourth, after the wind and rain, the rainbow appears
After 14 years of unremitting efforts and dedication, Liu Xinglian and Liang Zhongnan finally successfully defeated the tricks of fate with their great fatherly and maternal love. However, the pressure and pain they endured along the way was unimaginable.
Faced with the dilemma of not being able to afford the cost of treatment, they had to endure strange eyes and injuries from strangers every day, and even suffered from the covetousness of circus people, trying to buy Xiaoxiao and show it as a monster Whenever she recalled that desperate and helpless days, Liu Xinglian couldn't help but tremble all over her body and burst into tears, but, for Xiaoxiao, the couple never flinched at all, never gave up half a little, they used their hands and hearts to build an indestructible haven, Withstood the storm of the outside world for his daughter.
5. Be grateful for life and love life
Today, Xiaoxiao is 14 years old, and she has her own social circle and friends. Although she is slightly shorter than others, she has already become extremely strong inside. She learned how to be grateful for life and love life in her own unique way.
Xiaoxiao will quietly watch her father and mother for a long time, and convey endless gratitude to them with her eyes.
Indeed it is! This is where the true meaning of life lies. Therefore, despite the cynicism of others and even attempts to take advantage of the suffering she endured, she is still determined to fight for survival and try to love the world to the fullest.
Because she knows that her parents have always been with her with unparalleled purity and sincere love, facing every challenge with her.
