Zhang Jianping recuperated at home
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation refers to the infusion of hematopoietic stem cells of normal people into the patient's body through intravenous transfusion to rebuild the patient's hematopoietic function and immune function. Therefore, hematopoietic stem cells are also called "seeds of life". Recently, Zhang Jianping, an employee of the State Grid Anyue County Power Supply Company, saved a leukemia patient thousands of miles away by donating hematopoietic stem cells.
Paired into a function to save people, he considers himself "very lucky"
On October 29, the reporter met Zhang Jianping at his home. For the donation of "hematopoietic stem cells" some time ago, he seemed very flat. "In layman's terms, it's like donating blood once, and I think it's a very ordinary thing, really."
Zhang Jianping recalled that in December 2019, during the hospital physical examination, he accidentally saw a public service advertisement about donating "hematopoietic stem cells", and out of kindness, he took the initiative to join the database of Chinese hematopoietic stem cell donors. On the evening of June 24, 2021, Zhang Jianping received the first call from the staff of the Sichuan Provincial Red Cross Society, who informed him that his hematopoietic stem cells had been successfully matched with a leukemia patient in Guangxi, and asked him if he would like to donate. In this regard, Zhang Jianping replied without hesitation, "Yes!" ”
At that time, he said, he only felt that he was lucky to be selected among so many people and have a chance to save people.
In this regard, Liu Ying, a staff member of the Sichuan Provincial Red Cross Society, also said, "The probability of this matching is one hundredth to one in hundreds of thousands, and the probability is still very small." ”
According to reports, with the development of modern medicine, donating hematopoietic stem cells has not been much different from ordinary blood donations, and does not produce pain. In order to reassure his family, Zhang Jianping consulted a large number of medical materials and learned that donating hematopoietic stem cells would not cause any impact on the body, and his family also relaxed their hearts and expressed their support.
"Whatever he does, as long as he's right, I support him." Wife Zhao Huanhuan told reporters that the success of the match gives the other party hope, but also saves a family, she is willing to support her husband's decision.
Exercise every day to provide only the best hematopoietic stem cells
In the nearly 4 months of preparing to donate, Zhang Jianping's life has become very self-disciplined, insisting on going to bed early and getting up early, eating a healthy diet every day, and strengthening exercise through running, playing basketball, etc., hoping to donate the most energetic and healthy hematopoietic stem cells to patients.
Since it was the first time to donate, he was actually very scared in his heart, not knowing what difficulties or pains would be during the collection.
On October 21, 2021, the first day of collecting hematopoietic stem cells, he received a thank-you letter from a donor. The letter reads, "In this season of depression, I lay on my sickbed, not feeling the loneliness of autumn at all, but I saw the hope of spring in my heart. Because of you, the light of life shines back into my darkest life. "It was your great act of love and kindness that donated bone marrow (hematopoietic stem cells) to me, which made me see the brilliance of human nature, made me firmly believe that there is warmth in the human world, and added me with firm confidence and infinite strength to overcome the disease."
The recipient's words gave Zhang Jianping strength and completely eliminated the fear in his heart.
Thank-you letters from donated patients
On the morning of October 22, 2021, Zhang Jianping successfully completed the collection of 246 ml of hematopoietic stem cells at the Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital, and a bag of hematopoietic stem cell suspension condensed with love and expectation was sent to a hospital in Guangxi for treatment for patients for the first time.
Zhang Jianping said that since then, there has been one more stranger in the world who is related to him by blood. Although the two never knew each other, and even did not know each other's names, he sincerely hoped that this patient thousands of miles away could recover as soon as possible and live strongly.
Zhang Jianping donated hematopoietic stem cells to the Provincial People's Hospital
According to the relevant regulations of charity donations, Zhang Jianping can continue to recuperate at home for a week, but he has returned to work early, and his story has also spread in the unit, inspiring more people to help people with difficulties and needs.
"His spirit is worth learning from in all aspects of life and work." Yang Bing, an employee of the State Grid Anyue County Power Supply Company, said that in Zhang Jianping's body, he saw full of positive energy.
