Is it okay to visit the orphans' group "broken-winged angels" again?

There is such a description full of goodwill and expectation-every orphan is a "broken-winged angel". 20 12 this edition pays attention to a group of special children-orphans. Behind each of them, there is a heart-wrenching story: some have congenital heart disease since childhood and were abandoned by their parents less than 7 days after birth; Some lost their parents in the Wenchuan earthquake and came to live in welfare homes; Some parents can only stay with their elderly and sick grandparents after their death ... Five years later, are these children okay? What changes have taken place in their lives? What else do you need? Around Children's Day, the reporter revisited some orphans.

■ "Xiangxiang Princess" Well, take care of my sister and get married.

What the reporter remembers most is the "Xiangxiang Princess" who was less than 1 year old at the time of the interview. Xiaoxiangxiang is the youngest child in the "365 Morning Baby Home" (hereinafter referred to as "Baby Home") of the Folk Children's Welfare Institute. She is very cute with heavy eyebrows and big eyes. However, he was abandoned by his parents in the hospital because of congenital heart disease. It was only seven days since I arrived at the "Baby House". Later, I was diagnosed with liver injury and needed to take medicine for a long time.

"Why do you call her Princess Xiangxiang? Because she was being treated at that time, she had to take a bath with Chinese medicine several times a day. She has always been very fragrant and is the most fragrant child in our family! " Zhao Liping, founder of Baby House, said with a smile.

"My name is not Xiangxiang, I have my own name!" Xiang Xiang, leaning against Zhao Liping, opened her eyes wide and took out her textbook to show her name to the reporter. Xiangxiang, more than 6 years old this year, is going to primary school. She is attending preschool in a private school with the support of public welfare people. After I came home from school in the afternoon, I read books and did my homework on the mat in my room. I call "Ma Zhao" from time to time, ask one or two questions, and then smile mischievously, just like the mode of mother and daughter getting along in ordinary families.

Zhao Liping told reporters calmly: "Before Xiangxiang was two years old, her liver disease was very serious. The hospital suggested changing the liver. But there was no money at that time, but no one could bear to give up treatment. They ask about Chinese medicine everywhere, and give her decoction and medicine every day. I didn't expect it to be cured! " Even more amazing is that Xiangxiang's congenital heart disease has also healed itself. The fragrance that once worried people has become the healthiest one among more than 20 babies in the family.

"Is the deaf-mute sister who takes care of Xiangxiang still there?" The reporter took out the photos taken before and asked.

"This is a willow tree, which has been" married "from us. Her husband is very kind to her and has a good life! " Zhao Liping said with relief.

Many children in the photo still live in the "nursery".

"Guess who this is?" Zhao Liping smiled and brought a chubby little girl. "I am Xiaomei, I can walk!" Looking at Xiaomei, who is lively and cheerful, the reporter was surprised. Xiaomei, who met five years ago, suffers from severe congenital clubfoot and can only crawl on the ground with both hands and feet. Now she stands up! Zhao Liping said that Xiaomei had undergone four or five corrective operations in recent years, and spent hundreds of thousands of yuan on donations before and after. Finally, she was able to stand up and walk.

Xiaoru, who loves singing, has grown into a big girl. Zhao Liping proudly said, "Xiaoru is now the boss of our family. She takes care of her younger brother and sister every day and is my big helper. "

Over the years, children in the "nursery" have come and gone. Some grow up like green willows and find their own home in life; Some recovered successfully and returned to their original welfare homes; Some people have left this world forever. Zhao Liping pointed to the child in Xiaoru's arms in the photo, feeling a little sad: "This is Mingming, suffering from congenital retinoblastoma, also called eye cancer, because the disease was abandoned by his parents. 20 13 I am very ill. After being treated in the hospital for 4 months, he was still not rescued. I was only 3 years old when I left. "

■ I have moved three times in five years, and I most hope to have a stable place.

"365 Morning Baby Home" is a non-governmental public welfare organization founded by Zhao Liping on 20 10. In recent years, it has helped many orphans with cerebral palsy or physical disabilities. Through cooperation with welfare homes, Zhao Liping took the children who needed rehabilitation treatment to the "Baby Home" and gave them good care. The children all regard this place as their home and affectionately call Zhao Liping "Ma Zhao".

The current "baby house" is no longer at its original address. In the past five years, Zhao Liping has moved three times with her children, and the farther away from the city.

"The earliest rented house in Gaobeidian, although small in size, is very close to the urban area, so it is very convenient to take children to see a doctor and go out to buy things." Zhao Liping said that after a long period of stability, in June 20 13 and 10, Gaobeidian's house was designated for demolition, so they had to move their home to Daniufang, Wang Zhen, northwest of Haidian District. It won't be long before it is demolished. In August of 20 14, Zhao Liping moved to Xiaoluyi, Tongzhou with her children.

"It is not easy to find a place suitable for children to live, but also the rent is cheap, and there must be activity space and rehabilitation room. The house area in Tongzhou is only 300 square meters. Without a yard, it is difficult to meet the needs of 25 children. " In order to make children live more comfortably, in August of 20 16, Zhao Liping moved his family to Dongba, outside the East Fifth Ring Road, and had an independent small courtyard.

Pushing open the courtyard door, behind the bungalow on the right is the child's bedroom and rehabilitation room, and the three rooms directly opposite are the kitchen and classroom. A big yard of one or two hundred square meters is enough for children to have fun. However, Zhao Liping's heart is still not steadfast. "I'm afraid of sudden demolition or other things. I won't rent this house, I have to move. "

Moving left a shadow on Zhao Liping and the children. Almost every time I move, I catch up with the dog days. More than 20 people's belongings, all beds, wardrobes, clothes and sundries need to be removed and packed. Although there are volunteers to help, it is still a huge project, and it takes a month to really move. "It's another month to clean up after moving." Zhao Liping said that every time after moving home, the adults get sick and the children get restless. "Moving means that children need to re-adapt to the new environment from many aspects such as diet and daily life, which is a great test for normal children's psychology and growth, not to mention orphans and disabled children who have higher requirements for environmental familiarity. In the first few weeks of my new home, the children cried every night, looking for their original home. " Zhao Liping said frankly that he is worried at the thought of the house now.

Moving also affected children's normal enrollment. In Gaobeidian, the home is next to the front and back yard of the school, and all three school-age children can go to school. After moving, it was far from school and the traffic was inconvenient, so Zhao Liping had to invite the teacher home to give lessons to the children.

"What I am looking forward to most is that the baby house can have a stable residence, so don't let us move often. We can find ways to overcome the difficulties of lack of funds and manpower, but there is nothing we can do about local problems. I hope the government can help us in this regard. " Zhao Liping said frankly.

■ "Sister, can you go to our show?" Walking into the hearts of these children requires love and professionalism.

On the eve of Children's Day, the small courtyard of the baby house was very lively. There are several groups of caring people who come here to visit the children, volunteer groups who come regularly every week, and representatives of enterprises and communities who come here for the first time to offer their love.

"Sister, we had a charity bazaar at the new Olympic Center in the Asian Games Village on June 1 day. We will perform programs, sing and dance. Can you come? " Seeing Sister Zhou Xiao, a volunteer who comes to see her every week, Xinyu, who has poor eyesight, happily hugs her, pulls her aside and whispers. When Sister Zhou Xiao heard the question of the heart, she hesitated. Before she could answer, Xinyu immediately smiled cunningly: "I can't go, can I?" It's okay. I understand. "Sister hurriedly coaxed Xinyu:" I didn't say I couldn't go. I wonder if there are any other plans for that day. "I really want to go!"

When talking with reporters, Zhou Xiao said that most of these children are lively and cheerful, and like to communicate with others, but they are also sensitive. It is not easy to really enter their hearts. Volunteer groups in Zhou Xiao are more professional. Every Thursday afternoon, she will come to the "baby house" to help the children bathe, clean and chat with them.

"Oh, please help me. The baby is too heavy for me to carry alone." Two volunteers joined forces to take Xiaomei, who is over 3 years old, out of the bathroom. Xiaomei is a child that Zhao Liping took over from Urumqi Children's Welfare Institute in Xinjiang. Because of severe cerebral palsy, she can't sit or talk, so she can only lie in bed. She needs someone to take care of her food and drink, Lazar, and she has a regular rehabilitation task every day.

"Thanks to the help of these volunteers, we can leave my aunt here. A child with cerebral palsy is not easy to bring, let alone more than 20. " Zhao Liping said that there is a lot of rehabilitation nursing work at ordinary times, and children need to be bathed one by one in summer, so the manpower has been very tight. Even teachers hired to teach children sometimes have "broken files". Most of the time, it is Zhao Liping who teaches children alone.

Besides, not all volunteers can help. There is a display board on the wall at the entrance of the "Baby House", which specifically reads "Instructions for Volunteers to Visit", including: you can't ask the child's illness and origin in person, you can't give the child snacks at will, and so on. However, it is still difficult for many first-time volunteers to abide by these regulations. They are more concerned about their children and less professional.

Three or four in the afternoon is the children's self-study time. The reporter found that some volunteers took popsicles and went directly into the classroom to distribute them to the children. There are also some volunteers who unconsciously say some sensitive words or show pity when facing some disabled children. Because most people lack the knowledge and skills of professional social workers, they don't know what to do when they get along with children. Zhao Liping is also very helpless. "We are all very grateful to the volunteers who came to offer their love. We will try our best to guide them where they can't go. I hope that with the progress of society, volunteer service can be more standardized and professional. "
