My name is Cheng Xiong, born in a rural area of Jianli City, Hubei Province, the family living conditions are general, after marriage, the family has two children, the eldest is the daughter, the younger is the son, many people envy us, the family has children and daughters. Since becoming parents, my daughter-in-law and I have worked hard, and through hard work, we have finally left the remote countryside and bought a house in the small county town of Jianli. Although we still rely on part-time work to survive, the family of four is still very warm and happy together!
This kind of warm life, on November 3, 2020, was shattered by a vicious disease. My son Cheng Yuxuan, due to swollen lymph nodes in his neck, was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia T-series in Wuhan Tongji Hospital. Knowing that his son was suffering from this serious illness, it was really a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and he couldn't accept it at all, and the whole person was blinded at once. On the morning of the same day, when I went to the toilet in the middle of the night at Tongji Hospital, I lost consciousness and fell on the cold floor. I don't know how long it took, I vaguely felt a headache, touched the back of my head with my hand a lump the size of an egg, and the back of my back was cold, and I realized that I had fallen.
Although we cannot accept that our son is suffering from evil diseases, we must face reality. Doctors say there is an 80% cure rate for the disease, and if you give up, your child's life will only be 3 to 5 months left. In despair, we wiped away the tears in our eyes, and secretly resolved in our hearts that even if we lost our family, we would accompany our son to overcome the disease.
Since his son fell ill for more than half a year, the family has long been in debt. The commercial house purchased by the down payment was also sold to my niece, and the money from the sale of the house was all used in the treatment of my son.
The cost of the son's treatment, after being reimbursed by medical insurance, costs up to 400,000 yuan, and it also needs to be treated for 3 years, and the follow-up cost is about 300,000 yuan. We don't want to see the fire of our son's life extinguished because he had no money to heal. My elderly mother, 71 years old, dragged her heavy footsteps through the city to save her seriously ill grandson, picking up garbage and waste, and selling money to fuel her grandson's life.
Once, my son was drugged to go to the laminar flow room, and the next day after he went in, he had a fever. At that time, 24 hours a day, almost 22 hours were dripping. When I saw such a thing, I was very afraid, and I did not dare to sleep, and in about half an hour, I had to take my temperature once. The son was so uncomfortable that he had no appetite, basically could not eat every day, and relied on infusions every day to maintain.
During treatment, once my son had a fever of 38.9 degrees. He kept shaking, and when I touched his feet I found it was cold, and it was cold to touch his hand. The doctor prescribed him two antipyretic embolism butts, and the next morning he took his temperature, which was only 34.5 degrees, and his son's heart rate began to weaken. The doctor said that I should prepare in advance and let my son go to the ICU ward. My legs were shaking and tears were rolling in my eyes.
My son asked us, "What's wrong with Mom and Dad?" Why did the doctor talk to you again? Am I dangerous? Does our family have no money to treat me? "Listening to my son say this, I was so sad! I felt so incompetent, I didn't dare to say anything in front of my son, so I told him that it was okay, there was mom and dad, and I didn't have to be afraid of anything!
In the laminar flow room, my son had a fever for 15 days, did not eat a single grain of rice, and relied on infusion of nutrient solution to maintain his life. Watching my son not eat much for more than ten days, people are dizzy, let's not mention how painful it is! Until now, my son still has that fear and does not dare to enter the strato-stream room. For more than half a year, my son has suffered from diseases and has experienced countless bone and waist wear. Every time I watched the long needle plunge into my son's body, and watched him sweat and grit his teeth in pain, I hated that I couldn't bear it for him, and I could only encourage him to bravely overcome the disease.
Through radiotherapy, chemotherapy and symptomatic treatment, especially after the injection of pemenxase, the son did not think about eating, plus could not eat greasy food, and his weight was reduced from 102 pounds to 73 pounds now. Watching my son's skinny skin and bones make people feel heartache. Since my son fell ill, I realized the preciousness of life, so I volunteered to participate in the activity of organ donation, and my family and I have already said that at the end of my life, I will voluntarily donate my own organs to rekindle the hope of life for others. At the moment, my son's resistance is very poor, and special care is needed in order to prevent accidents. To this end, my daughter-in-law and I are both accompanying our children to treatment, and there is no way to go to work to earn money to continue treatment for our son.
