A woman holding a bunch of roses proposed for the eighth time to a seriously
ill man, promising to fight the disease with him, which moved the entire medical
staff of the No.2 hospital affiliated to Lanzhou University.

Bai Chongming who receives treatment in hospital for his aplastic
anaemia.[xbsb.com] |
Bai Chongming, the hospitalized man, was formerly a rural teacher in the
suburb of Lanzhou, capital of Northwest China's Gansu Province, until 1997, when
he was diagnosed with aplastic anaemia, a rare blood stem-cell disorder.
In 2004, after nine year of treatment, and after his family had spent up
their entire savings on him, Bai painfully said goodbye to his girlfriend of two
years, wishing not to become a burden for her.
But to Bai's great surprise, another girl who said she had loved him secretly
for several years came to his sickbed and expressed her affection to him,
promising that she would take care him for life.
Du liked the girl very much and wanted to live with her, but was fraught with
conflict and struggle, and so at last refused the girl.
The girl said this was her eighth time proposing to Du, only to be refused
yet again.
According to a doctor, a stem-cell operation could possibly cure Bai.
