A wheelchair dream open to the sky

When she was very young, she had many beautiful dreams like other children. Among them, her biggest dream is to go to school, but she has never had a chance to enter the school gate.

Why? It turned out that at the age of 5, she became a disabled child because of high paraplegia caused by spinal hemangioma. However, in the face of the cruel fate challenge, she did not feel depressed and sink, but fought against the disease with tenacious perseverance and perseverance, and withstood the severe test.

She is Zhang Haidi. Although she didn't have the opportunity to go to school, she was able to study hard, finished all the courses in primary and secondary schools, taught herself English, Japanese, German and Esperanto, and also took university and postgraduate courses. Later, she began to engage in literary creation, and successively translated English works such as seaside clinic, and created works such as a window open to the sky, a questioning of life, and a dream in a wheelchair.

44-year-old illness has been tormenting Zhang Haidi. But she has always insisted that this spirit alone can write a touching book!

If it were you, would you feel very painful and even want to cry? However, in pursuit of her dream, Zhang Haidi never cried. She said: "I have never cried for my illness in these years. What makes me cry are those who care about me enthusiastically! " "

So, how did Zhang Haidi persist and become a self-taught student? Next, I will tell you.

Who is Lingling?

You don't know, do you? I tell you, Lingling is Zhang Haidi's nickname.

1955, Zhang Haidi was born in Jinan, Shandong. Before the age of 5, Zhang Haidi had a happy childhood, happy and lively, skipping all day.

Unfortunately, the skipping time is so short.

Less than 6 years old, Xiao Lingling suddenly fell ill. Mother is holding Lingling, sitting in a chair in the hospital corridor, waiting for the doctor's examination. After seeing the illness, Lingling felt her mother's legs shaking, but she didn't know why.

What's wrong with Lingling, so terrible? She suffers from spinal hemangioma, which is a recurrent disease and very difficult to treat. In five years, she had three major operations, removed six spinal plates, and finally was paraplegic. In this way, Lingling, once naive and lively, can only lie in bed all day.

Watching her friends happily jump rubber bands and go to school with their schoolbags on their backs, Lingling's young and fragile heart was crushed by pain. Fortunately, after hearing about Lingling's misfortune, her old friends often came to see her and told her about the school.

Lingling lives in a red three-story building. How envious she was when she sat by the window and looked at the children passing by! When it's school age, Lingling can only stay at home. She wants to go to school too!

Lingling heard from the window, "How did I forget to bring my umbrella? ..... Alas, how could I forget my schoolbag! " I feel very sad. She really wants to feel the happiness of going to school with them and the coolness of running in the rain ... However, all this is a dream. For Lingling, it can only be a dream of sitting in a wheelchair. One day, Lingling finally couldn't hold back her desire and said to her mother, "Mom, I'm going to school!" " "

Although Lingling is determined, her conditions are ruthless. Whenever illness afflicts her, the strong Lingling doesn't cry. When the pain was really severe, in order to distract her attention, she yanked her hair and planned to replace another pain with one. Gradually, her pulled hair can be braided. How much pain she endured!

For Lingling, home is a special school. In this school, Lingling, who is smart and eager to learn, has learned a lot of knowledge. Of all the classes, Lingling likes learning Chinese best. She 10 can still read novels. Although she studies hard, she is not discouraged. She likes reading the stories of Zoya and Shula very much.

In addition to Chinese, Lingling is also very attentive to other classes and doesn't waste time at all. Throughout her childhood, she studied hard with tenacious will, always treated every word and sentence attentively, taught herself all the courses in primary and secondary schools, and realized her dream of sitting in a wheelchair. In Lingling's own words, she is not ashamed of her childhood or those wonderful times.

There, Zhang Haidi spent 15 years. The love of parents, friends and friends also makes Zhang Haidi more confident to face the future.

1April, 970, Zhang Haidi followed his parents and took a big truck to Shilipu Shanglou Village in Shenxian County, and began his rural life.

At first, Zhang Haidi felt that the countryside was strange. Life is very difficult without electric lights and running water. However, in those simple villagers, Zhang Haidi felt more true and simple love.

The day I first arrived in Shenxian, the sky was clear and the white clouds in the sky were like big cotton. Soon, a group of eleven or twelve-year-old children ran around Zhang Haidi, scrambling to ask, "Sister Lingling, are you from the city? Why is your face so white! What happened to your leg? " Looking at the smiling faces of the children, Zhang Haidi smiled and slowly told her story to the children.

After only half a month, Zhang Haidi got along well with the villagers. Neighbors scrambled to send sweet potatoes, pickles and other things to Lingling's house, and made a wooden wheelchair for her.

The children are willing to push Zhang Haidi out for a walk. The boy said, "Sister Lingling, I'll push you!" " The boy grabbed it and said, "I push, I push!" " ! ""After several arguments, the children took turns pushing them to the field.

In return for these simple loves, Zhang Haidi also wants to do something for everyone. So, she began to study medical books under the dim oil lamp, and asked her father to buy her a thermometer, a stethoscope and a silver needle for acupuncture, and became a rural doctor who treated people in a wheelchair.

Zhang Haidi treated more than 10,000 people during his life in Shenxian county, and acupuncture technology was also a successor? Pure bed > that temple? s？ ? Loyal and confused? Silk bed? Hey? What's the point of arrogance? Are you embarrassed? Flash forgiveness "type, but, in order to cure the villagers' illness, return their love, Zhang Haidi has been insisting.

Knowledge is wealth. Suffering from illness and studying hard, Zhang Haidi finally had his own wealth. With this wealth, she finally taught herself and achieved success.

198 1 65438+February, People's Daily first reported Zhang Haidi's deeds; 1February, 983, Zhang Haidi was awarded the title of "model worker" by the Shandong provincial government and "outstanding Communist Youth League member" by the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League. He has also won the title of national "March 8" red flag bearer and national self-improvement model.

From 65438 to 0983, Zhang Haidi began to engage in literary creation, and successively translated English works such as The Beach Clinic, Little Miller's Travels, Rebecca's New School, and created works such as Pursuing Life, Dreams in Wheelchairs, and Extremely Top, among which Dreams in Wheelchairs have been published in Japan and South Korea.

1In April, 1993, Zhang Haidi obtained a master's degree in philosophy from Jilin University.

1997, Zhang Haidi was selected as "Five Outstanding Disabled Persons in the World" by Japanese NHK, and her deeds were spread all over the world. ...

Faced with these honors, Zhang Haidi did not stop pursuing them. Although she has lived in a wheelchair for 44 years, during these 44 years, she has never been knocked down by illness, has been struggling upward, has never given up every minute of her efforts, and has not wasted every journey of her life.

Today, when we read the books written by Zhang Haidi, we see a healthy soul and feel the love hidden in it for 44 years. Compared with normal people who don't cherish life, Zhang Haidi loves life more, is more tenacious and more diligent. For Zhang Haidi, knowledge is a kind of wealth, but self-improvement is a more precious wealth. With it, we can overcome all difficulties and spread love all over the world.
