I have a rare congenital disease, the scientific name is epidermolysis bullosa. How painful this disease is, students can go to Baidu. That year, my wife was in Kunming. She bought me a plane ticket and invited me to play. It was my first time to fly. Before I went, I was so excited that I even thought about which scenic spots to visit.
But at the graduation dinner before departure, I drank too much beer and threw up because of emotional excitement. It's okay for most people to vomit, but when I vomit, the mucosa in the esophagus is torn open, that is, the epidermis in the esophagus is pulled out by the force of vomiting, and the long white one protrudes from the throat. It is necessary to cut off the mucosa hanging outside with scissors and swallow the rest into the throat.
The consequences of mucosal damage are very serious. If you don't eat or drink for half a month, you need to rely on nutrient solution to maintain your life. But I couldn't bear to part with the plane ticket and never flew, so the next day, I set off dragging my sick body.
I stayed in Kunming for four days. My wife, a woman who is not related to me by blood, took care of me in the hospital for four days. Before her, no one had taken care of me like this except my relatives. When I left the airport that day, I held her in my arms. I made up my mind to marry you home, although I don't know if it will succeed.
Half a year later, when I told my parents that I was going to marry her, my mother ran away in a rage. My father, a big man who was over 50 in 18 and never cried when he was a soldier, pointed at my nose and cried loudly. I really cried at that time!
My father threatened to kick me out of the house and disown my son. I'm going to leave home and live with her in Yunnan. At that time, I had only one belief in my heart. I must not be discouraged, I must not give in, I must not shrink back, and once I am discouraged and can't stand the pressure, I will completely miss her and miss my happiness.
I don't blame them. My parents are from the countryside, and their ideas are very old and conservative. They can't accept such a woman who is seven years older than me with a child. They think I humiliated them. But I know that I am a disabled person. Now I can have a woman who is physically and mentally sound and sincere to me. Should I give up my happiness? Although they are my parents, they don't know what happiness I really need. My happiness is only known to me.
Similarly, her parents and relatives are against her and me, and the reason is even clearer. No one wants his daughter to find a disabled person, seven years younger. In order to prevent her from talking to me, my mother-in-law even called a witch to her house to exorcise demons, thinking that she was possessed by demons before she wanted to talk to me. Her sister's brother-in-law was so angry that she wanted to break up with her. Although I haven't experienced the storm she faced, I know she must be under greater pressure than I am.
After a week of stalemate in the war that decided my fate, my parents finally compromised. After all, I can't bear to leave them and bring up a child with physical defects. They put too much effort into me.
Now our family of three has lived together for seven years (the fourth year after marriage). My parents agreed to hold the wedding three years after my wife came. No new house (my parents' old house), no car, no bride price, no wedding car, no wedding, no emcee, no video. I got a video camera to record the video and edited it myself. At the wedding, my speech made all my relatives and friends cry.
