The following is the butterfly that I recommend for everyone to spread its wings and fly.
Just because the American doctoral crowd took one more look:
A promise as good as a promise,
Just because the crowd took one more look.
One day in June 5438 +2005 10, 36-year-old Chen Borui made an overseas call from his home in the United States. Her hoarse voice and trembling hands all reveal her inner excitement at the moment: "Hello, is this Wang Lin?" I found a hospital in the United States that is willing to operate on you for free. My little angel in China, you finally have a chance to stand up again ... "Chen Borui, who hung up the phone, still couldn't calm his excitement, and his thoughts went back to more than a year ago.
In 2004, Chen Borui, who was studying for a doctorate in communication at the University of Maryland, came to Beijing to finish his doctoral thesis. 65438+1at 4 o'clock on the afternoon of October 5, she hurried to CCTV to visit a director. Just as she passed the underground passage near the TV station, she found a girl. Her face was full of despair, but she was shocked by her big eyes as clear as a king.
Chen Borui, who is proficient in Chinese, stopped involuntarily. After talking, Chen Borui learned that the girl's name is Wang Lin, 12 years old, from Wusheng County, Sichuan Province. In the Spring Festival of 2003, Wang Lin and her sister Wang Ping were doing their homework under a kerosene lamp, which suddenly exploded and caught fire ... Wang Lin suffered 45% burns all over her body, especially her lower limbs, external genitalia and * * *. After being rescued by the hospital overnight, Wang Lin's life was saved, but she had to face amputation, skin grafting and other pains after burns, and the cost was huge. Wang Lin's mother is a farmer, and his father only gets 300 yuan's salary every month. Seeing this, Wang Lin's school and fellow villagers launched a donation activity for her, but the total * * * only received two or three thousand yuan. In order to treat his daughter, in just one year, Wang's father borrowed more than 10 million yuan. Finally, they sued the kerosene lamp seller to Wusheng County People's Court, and the lawsuit was won, but they couldn't get a penny of compensation.
After a year of conservative treatment, Wang Lin's injury began to deteriorate. Doctors at the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College said that Wang Lin's injury had affected organ function. Unless we find a hospital with higher medical standards, I'm afraid we can only watch this young life wither. However, Wang Lin's parents couldn't bear it. In August 2004, they pooled 20,000 yuan and took Wang Lin to Beijing for medical treatment. The family moved around major hospitals in Beijing, and almost all doctors shook their heads. An old expert in beijing jishuitan hospital said, "The only hope is to find the world's top burn experts abroad ... but the cost is quite expensive!" There is no money for treatment at home, let alone abroad. In desperation, when their family passed an underground passage near CCTV, they were destined to meet Chen Borui. ......
After listening to Wang Lin's experience, Chen Borui felt that his heart seemed to be gripped by one hand. But because I had an appointment to visit at that time, I had to ask Wang Lin's father's mobile phone number, leave a few hundred dollars, and write "Don't give up, I will help you" and left in a hurry. After returning to Sichuan, although Wang Lin's family was very grateful to Chen Borui, they didn't take her words too seriously. But for Chen Borui, since meeting Wang Lin, a strong inner impulse has been lingering in my heart: I must help this poor girl stand up again.
On June 5438+065438+ 10, 2004, Chen Borui received the letter of appointment from China Foreign Affairs University after completing his graduation thesis. This is undoubtedly a dream for Chen Borui, who yearned for teacher work since childhood and loved this magical country of China. However, she resolutely returned to the United States and began to run around to save Wang Lin. At the same time, in order to communicate with Wang Lin's family at any time, Chen Borui also instructed Wang Lin's father to find Xu Lan, an English teacher in Vu Thang Vocational Secondary School. Deeply moved, Xu Lan helped him set up a QQ where he could contact Chen Borui.
Although he hit a wall everywhere, Chen Borui did not give up. In June 2005, the opportunity finally came! In a social activity, Chen Borui learned that Trina, an American charity, is a charity that specializes in treating burns for poor children around the world free of charge. The organization has a well-equipped children's hospital in Boston-Boston Holy Brotherhood Hospital, and its burn plastic surgery technology is first-class in the United States and even the world. So, she immediately called Xie Lidan, a doctor at Boston Holy Brotherhood Hospital, and got a positive answer before she received the initial call in this article.
I heard that Chen Borui had helped Wang Lin to contact a hospital in the United States for free treatment, and Wang Lin's family burst into tears of joy. Xu Lan, infected by Chen Borui's loyalty, took the initiative to ask for leave and offered to be a nurse and translator for Wang Lin's American career. After getting the visa, Xiao Wang Lin and his mother Guo Chunmei flew to the United States on June 6, 2006.
On June 6, 2006 16, Wang Lin was admitted to Boston Holy Land Brotherhood Hospital. In order to make the most suitable treatment plan for her, doctors from the hospital and Boston General Hospital formed a world-class expert team. However, after examining Wang Lin's injury, Dr. De Varick, the world's top burn expert and medical director of the Holy Land Brotherhood Hospital, sighed lightly and said, "After the burn, the patient was not treated in time, and it was delayed for more than two years. From 1 1 to 14, it was the fastest period of physical development. Today, the patient's leg tissue is atrophied and the lower limbs are severely deformed. The best treatment is amputation! " Different from Chen Borui, Wang Lin was extremely calm and optimistic when she heard the bad news of amputation. With an angelic smile on her face, she said softly, "Butterflies can still fly lightly in the air without legs. Aunt Chen, I feel that as long as the "wings" in my heart are saved, everything has hope! " Wang Lin's optimism made Chen Borui feel even more pity. Finally, after careful study, the expert group determined the treatment plan: First, try to keep the lower limbs and only remove Wang Lin's feet and soles; If it goes well, the hospital will do * * * reconstruction and inguinal skin grafting for her; If all the above operations are successful, skin grafting will be performed on Wang Lin's legs, hands, back and lower abdomen. ......
After all the hardships,
China girl rocked Boston.
According to the arrangement of the hospital, all the operations are carried out one by one according to the principle of urgency first, then slowing down, and easy first, then difficult. On June 27th, 2006, Trina Solar Children's Hospital performed the first operation for Wang Lin. The operation process is quite complicated. If there is a problem in any tiny link, the operation will not succeed. In order to relax Wang Lin, before entering the operating room, Chen Borui invited a volunteer pianist to play some cheerful songs for Wang Lin. From 9 am to noon 12, the door of the operating room finally opened. Chen Borui quickly touched Wang Lin's pale face, kept calling her and kissing her, and hot tears flowed on Wang Lin's face. But after the first operation, experts found that Wang Lin's injury was more serious than expected, and the wound could not heal because of infection. After another consultation, the expert decided to remove Wang Lin's lower limbs.
On July 4th, 2006, experts had to perform the second operation on Wang Lin. After the operation, Chen Borui has been unable to face Wang Lin. Unexpectedly, Wang Lin was not depressed. On the contrary, she pointed to a butterfly sitting on a branch outside the window and said playfully, "This is much better than I expected. Look, Aunt Chen, I feel like that butterfly. Although I am a caterpillar and ugly now, I will become beautiful as long as I get through the difficulties. " Chen Borui's eyes are moist.
After removing the most seriously infected lower limbs, Wang Lin's life has the most basic guarantee. Next, the hospital decided to perform * * * reconstruction surgery on her. On August 5, 2006, the operation was successfully completed. In a short period of one and a half months, Wang Lin has had three consecutive major operations. Although she is strong, she is only a child. After the anesthetic effect disappeared, Wang Lin couldn't sleep all night because of the pain and itching of the wound. She is tortured every time she urinates or urinates. How many times when struggling in extreme pain, tearful Wang Lin frantically squeezed Chen Borui's hand and cried piteously: "Aunt Chen, I will never have surgery again, never again." Although the back of hand and palm were stained with countless blood by Wang Lin, Chen Borui never called pain, and always had a calm smile on his face. After waking up, Wang Lin saw Chen Borui's scar and cried and said he was sorry. Instead, Chen Borui hugged Wang Lin lovingly and said softly, "Little angel, aren't you bent on being a butterfly?" Breaking a cocoon into a butterfly will definitely hurt, but aunt and people who love you will always be by your side and share your pain. Don't be afraid! "Looking at Chen Borui who has been kindly guarding himself, Wang Lin felt an indescribable excitement and nodded hard.
Since then, Wang Lin has done four skin grafting operations, each time under local anesthesia. She never shed a tear. The wound after skin grafting is numb and itchy, and I can't scratch it. In order to avoid touching the wound uncontrollably, Wang Lin tied his hands to the bed. Looking at Xiao Xiao's painful struggle in bed, her whole body was soaked with better sweat and her wrists were all bruised. Chen Borui was distressed and proposed to untie the binding rope several times. In order to resist that terrible itch, Wang Lin's lips have already been bitten to pieces by herself, but her faint smile is full of the stubbornness and perseverance of the orientals: "No, Aunt Chen, I promised you to become a butterfly. What is this test!" Seeing his angel tortured by illness, Chen Borui felt that he could no longer sit still and had to do something! From then on, Chen Borui kept playing Wang Lin's favorite English song "Butterfly" in the ward. Every time the loud song "I" mbutterfly "sounded in the ward, everyone shed tears for this little girl in China. ......
In just three months, Wang Lin has undergone eight operations, large and small. In order to make her fully recover, Chen Borui went to the hospital director and asked Wang Lin not to leave the hospital until she recovered. The dean was also moved by the strength of this China girl and agreed to her request. However, because of the visa problem, Wang Lin's mother and teacher Xu Lan had to return home early. When sending them back to China, Chen Borui took the hand of the Queen Mother and said, "Elder sister, are you at ease to leave your daughter in the United States?" Guo Chunmei choked: "American girl, you love Wang Lin more than I do. Why can't I rest assured? " Chen Borui smiled, and Wang Lin reluctantly smiled.
Phoenix,
You are an angel from heaven.
After three months together, Chen Borui was deeply moved by Xiao Wang Lin's strength and courage in treatment. If Xiao Wang Lin wants to get a better recovery, she must stay in America. Chen Borui thought of adoption. Worried that the idea of adoption would spread to Wang Lin, Chen Borui didn't tell the truth at the beginning. For Chen Borui, being with Wang Lin silently and taking care of her everything is happiness.
Although Wang Lin's operation was successful, due to the serious vascular injury and poor blood circulation after deep burn of the leg, some muscles in the leg began to turn black, and there was nothing Western medicine could do about it. The doctor advised her to adopt Chinese medicine. But in America, where can I find a Chinese medicine teacher? Chen Borui asked around. Soon, an overseas Chinese who has studied Chinese medicine is willing to provide free * * * for small villagers in China. After more than half a month's treatment, the blood circulation of Wang Lin's leg muscles has indeed improved. However, overseas Chinese are too busy to be on call. In order to help Wang Lin at any time, Chen Borui humbly asked overseas Chinese for advice. Besides, she also entrusted her friends in China to send her many books about TCM and taught herself how to do it. Since then, she has insisted on giving Wang Lin two hours a day.
During the period of rehabilitation, Chen Borui taught Wang Lin a kind of upper limb dance, which is a kind of rehabilitation dance specialized in exercising upper limbs. Chen Borui filmed her daily performances and uploaded them to the Internet. Watching Wang Lin recover day by day, Chen Borui is more and more reluctant to leave her. Seeing that the day when the visa expires is getting closer and closer, Chen Borui's heart is becoming more and more reluctant. One day, Chen Borui opened the video page of Wang Lin performing upper limb dance, and Wang Lin was shocked by the number of replies from netizens. What surprised her even more was that she was full of praise for her dance, and some even expressed their willingness to shoot special effects MV for her. Chen Borui strike while the iron is hot: "Would you like to give a live performance to netizens today? They have been waiting for a long time. "
If it was the former Wang Lin, she would be ashamed to say it, but with her previous confidence, she hesitated for a long time and finally agreed to try. As her body became more flexible from bondage, she became more and more excited when dancing, and even created several movements of her own. After the "live broadcast", Wang Lin's little face was flushed with excitement and kept shouting: "Mom, I did it, I really did it." Hearing Wang Lin's "mother", Chen Borui suddenly froze, and then could no longer control himself. He hugged Wang Lin excitedly and repeatedly said, "My little angel, did you call me mom?" Do you know how much I want to hear you call me that, my daughter? " Wang Lin was a little shy, but she replied firmly, "OK, Mom! You will be my second mother in the future. "
When Wang Lin heard Chen Borui's request for adoption, her mood was beyond description. What about parents who really live in a foreign country and are far away from home? Language, study and future work and life are all problems. After understanding Wang Lin's concerns, Chen Borui did not reluctantly say, "Well, let's go back to China together and listen to your parents' opinions. "June 65438+10/October 65438+July 2007, Chen Borui came back with Wang Lin. Although Wang Lin was reluctant to leave her, for the sake of her daughter's early recovery and a better life in the future, the China couple agreed to Chen Borui's request with tears in their eyes.
On February 2, 2007, Wang Lin and Chen Borui returned to the United States. In order to make Wang Lin adapt to American life as soon as possible, Chen Borui specially asked someone to help her study. With the English context surrounded at any time, Wang Lin's English has made rapid progress, and he will soon be able to conduct simple English conversation and writing. At first, Wang Lin's oral English could not be improved, so Chen Borui encouraged her to talk more and communicate more with others. Whether going out to the supermarket to buy things, going to the movies or eating, Chen Borui always puts Wang Lin in charge of talking to people. Although she has experienced a lot of embarrassment, Wang Lin's oral English has miraculously improved rapidly.
Before dropping out of school to go to the United States for treatment, Wang Lin had already read the first grade of junior high school. After one year's oral training, in March 2008, under the arrangement of Chen Borui, Wang Lin successfully entered EleanorRoosevelt High School in Prince George's District (grade nine, equivalent to grade two of junior high school in China) through secondary school admission test. In the face of Wang Lin's growth, Chen Borui and his wife are extremely proud. Although she is in the United States, Wang Lin has never forgotten China's parents. Every weekend, Chen Borui will accompany Wang Lin and watch her daughter have a video call with her father and sister who are far away in China through "Skybe".
On 20 10 1 1, Wang Lin successfully finished EleanorRoosevelt high school and began to face college exams. 20 1 1 in may, 2008, Wang Lin successfully got the admission notice of architectural design major of Stanford university in the United States with the results of GPA second and SAT first in EleanorRoosevelt high school.
These are butterflies that spread their wings and fly.
