Im sure all of u should have heard the story of a baby surviving in her mother's arm in the China Earthquake by now. Myself have heard this story 2 times before & my tears rolled uncontrollably each time i heard this story... ...
I found a written version from a blog & decided to blog it for all who have not heard of it as yet...
& to urge all whom have not made a donation... pls. do so...
there are still many children/ babies whom have became orphans overnight who really need our help.
Touching StoryIt was the third day after the quake already. The rescue workers were still looking for survivors. They knew with each minute passing by, the chance to find someone alive gets slimmer. 'Come here, come here! There is a body!' Shouted a rescue worker. His fellow workers rushed to the spot. Under a big chunk of roof was a woman. She was lying with a strange pose - she kneeled on the ground with her upper body stretch forward. Her head was on the ground as well. As if she was praying for her survival. The nurse in the rescue team struggled to reach her through the debris. It was difficult. There was no space. The woman was not responsive to any call. However, just to make sure, the nurse still tried to test her breath, to see if she was still breathing. Not really. She was breathless, and her body was cold. She was dead. Praying or not, it did not help. The team moved on. There were other people buried. They could not afford to spend time in retrieving a dead body. When the team reached the next collapsed building, the captain suddenly ran back to the woman, as if he realized something. When he reached the spot, he lay down, put his head next to the roof, and stretched his arm to touch the space under her abdomen. Once, twice. His forehead was locked, just like he was solving a mystery. 'There is a baby! And he is alive!!!' He cried out to his team members. It was a newly-born. He was neatly wrapped in a red blanket decorated by yellow flowers. Miraculously, he did not even have a scratch in his body. When he was taken out from the rubble, he was sleeping, peacefully sleeping. The nurse took the baby from the rescue worker and started doing routine exams. When she unwrapped the blanket, she found a cell phone tucked between the baby and his diaper.
It had a text message written on the screen, read'孩子, 如果你还活着, 记得妈妈爱你'
The little baby can survive till now is because she drank her mum's breastmilk when trapped under the collasped building.
