At 4 o'clock in the morning, many people were still sleeping, and Xiaoshuo's mother was already on her way to the construction site. When she got home and didn't even have time to eat, she had to take her son to the hospital for treatment. She had been living this way for several years. "Some people ask me if it's hard? Is it tiring? I tell them, it's tiring, but not hard at all. When my boss gave me this job opportunity, I could continue to take my son to seek medical treatment. I have no other ability, but I believe that as long as I work hard, my son can always live a normal life." Xiaoshuo's mother said firmly. The picture shows the mother looking distressedly at Xiaoshuo on the hospital bed.
My mother has always been worried about her son suffering from such a serious illness. When she was pregnant, the doctor told her that the fetal position was abnormal and that she would need a caesarean section during delivery. But on the day of delivery, the hospital happened to have a power outage and was unable to perform the operation. By then, she had already started giving birth, and she had no way to transfer to the hospital, so she had to go to the operating table during the power outage. Xiaoshuo, who was born under such difficult conditions, was sent to the intensive care unit for rescue due to hypoxia as soon as he was born. The picture shows Xiao Shuo.
There is no way to visit her son in the intensive care unit. Although she is still in confinement, Xiaoshuo’s mother sits on the bench in the aisle every day. When a doctor comes out, she asks, “Is my son okay? "Is he breastfeeding?" But before her son was discharged safely, the doctor told her, "The child has congenital heart disease and other diseases." The doctor's words gave Xiaoshuo's mother a blow, and soon this worry became a reality. The picture shows mother taking care of Xiaoshuo.
One night in 2010, when he was just one year old, Xiaoshuo's body suddenly began to twitch. But it only happened once, and her mother took Xiaoshuo to the hospital and the cause was not found out. Slowly, my mother discovered that Xiaoshuo had been unable to walk and speak normally. Worried, her mother took Xiaoshuo to many hospitals to seek medical treatment. Finally, Xiaoshuo was diagnosed with cerebral palsy when he was 4 years old.
Xiaoshuo could only receive rehabilitation treatment, but at that time Xiaoshuo's congenital heart disease already required surgery. It was quite difficult for the family to even pay for Xiaoshuo's surgery. Xiaoshuo's mother had no choice but to save Xiaoshuo's life first. When Xiaoshuo was 6 years old, Xiaoshuo's mother performed heart surgery on Xiaoshuo with tens of thousands of yuan scraped together. After the successful operation, my mother began to consider Xiaoshuo's rehabilitation treatment. The picture shows the mother crying when talking about her son.
Due to the family’s meager income and a lot of accumulated debt, Xiaoshuo’s mother has been holding back Xiaoshuo’s progress. It wasn't until Xiaoshuo was 9 years old that Xiaoshuo's mother accidentally learned that a rehabilitation hospital in Qujing, Yunnan had a subsidy policy. She realized that this might be her son's last chance. After discussing with her husband, it was decided that she would take Xiaoshuo to the hospital for treatment with the money from the food she had just sold at home, while her husband would continue to work to raise money. The picture shows Xiaoshuo undergoing rehabilitation training.
After arriving at the hospital, my mother’s excited heart suddenly cooled down. She found that even with the subsidy, all the money she had was not enough to support Xiaoshuo's rehabilitation treatment for a month, and her family was already impoverished and could not afford another penny. Xiaoshuo's mother was unwilling to give in and rented a small house of less than 5 square meters near the hospital. Then she only left more than 200 yuan for food, and paid the rest for the treatment fee. Every day after Xiaoshuo finishes his rehabilitation treatment in the evening, his mother will put him at home and then go out to find a job. The picture shows Xiao Shuo massaging his mother’s legs.
Because he also had to take care of his son’s rehabilitation treatment, Xiaoshuo searched for a job for several days without success. Just when Xiaoshuo's mother was about to despair, the boss of a construction site learned about her experience and was so moved that he gave her a job in the construction site canteen and allowed her to bring her children with her. Xiaoshuo's mother cherishes this hard-won job opportunity. She gets up at 4 o'clock every day to buy vegetables at the vegetable market, prepares breakfast at the construction site, and prepares lunch dishes. Then she hurries back home, helps Xiaoshuo wash up, takes care of him to eat, and then sends him to the hospital for treatment. The picture shows that my mother is exhausted physically and mentally every day.
When Xiaoshuo finished his treatment at noon, Xiaoshuo's mother had to rush to the construction site to prepare lunch with Xiaoshuo. After treatment, Xiaoshuo's cognition has improved a lot. He never causes trouble and even helps his mother choose and wash vegetables. Mom only had time to take a quick bite at noon every day, and then she had to rush Xiaoshuo for afternoon treatment. The mother and son could not return to the rental house until dinner was over.
The years of persistence of Xiaoshuo’s mother paid off. Xiaoshuo’s condition gradually improved. He walked much more steadily and his cognition also improved. Seeing her son getting better and better, his mother felt that life was getting more and more promising. But on Xiaoshuo's road to hope, the high cost of treatment is still the biggest stumbling block. Xiaoshuo's treatment over the years has been continued with the help of Xiaoshuo's mother's hard work and the support of relatives and friends. The picture shows Xiao Shuo.
"As long as I still have breath, I will not give up my child." Xiaoshuo's mother said firmly. But the embarrassment of reality turned her belief into a fantasy. She is desperately trying to make money, but Xiaoshuo's expensive rehabilitation treatment fee is not enough. Her mother doesn't know what to do next. The picture shows the mother worrying about Xiaoshuo’s subsequent treatment.
