“I heard that pretty words and songs can make a baby happy and healthy,” she explains.
The Cui’s named their daughter LingWei, or ‘beautiful flower’, but as she got older, they worried about her because even when she ate, she couldn’t absorb nutrients.
“Her mouth was always purple and her face was pale,” Mrs. Cui recalls. “And she groaned in pain when she slept.”
She ended up at the hospital with pneumonia and a fever of over 102.
Mrs. Cui reports, “The doctor said there was a hole in her heart and pressure in her arteries.”
She needed heart surgery, but the Cui’s are poor. They had a small amount of a new government medical insurance for farmers, but even with that, it would take10 years to save enough to pay their portion of LingWei’s operation. By then, they feared their baby wouldn’t be alive.
