On October 23, the emergency department of the People's Hospital of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region received a child with trauma, Xiaoyu, who was critically ill and was immediately admitted to the hospital ICU. The child's injuries were so severe that despite the full rescue efforts of hospital specialists, his condition deteriorated further and he was judged to be brain dead on 26 October.

When the doctor announced the death of Xiao Yu Brain, the family learned from the medical staff about China's human organ donation policy, related knowledge and donation process. Despite the pain, they made the difficult decision to sign an organ donation consent form.
