Cancer youth "lying" draws thousands of worlds
On November 11, Liu Li updated a circle of friends. He used cartoon fonts on his self-made postcards and copied the verse from Wang Guozhen’s "If You Are Not Happy", "If you are not happy enough, don’t lock your brows deeply, life It was short, why did you cultivate bitterness?" It was accompanied by the text "The hands are boring in a few days, and the nerve pressure feels so good."
In just a few lines, Liu Li wrote one stroke at a time for nearly half an hour. With multiple neurofibroma, his hands gradually lost muscle function, and he didn't even have the strength to hold chopsticks.
With a height of 1.8 meters, he weighs only 90 kilograms, his thighs are as thick as an arm, and there are many tumors all over his body.
When Liu Li was 12 years old, his father died of the same illness.
In the third grade, Liu Li's leg armpit was removed because of a tumor, and his legs could not walk normally after the nerve was cut.
At the age of 18, he had tumors on both hearing nerves, and Liu Li lost his hearing after removal.
Since then, Liu Li's condition has become more and more serious. The tumor rages on his body. His arms seem to be strong, but the actual "muscle" on the shoulder is a large tumor.
When Liu Li went to Beijing Tiantan Hospital for surgery in 2007, the doctor advised Liu Li's mother Liu Liqiu to adopt conservative treatment, and predicted that Liu Li would only live for four to five years at most.
Over the years, Liu Liqiu has been looking for various methods to try to curb the growth of the tumor and stabilize his son's condition.
She quit her job and devoted herself to taking care of her son at home. Liu Liqiu never thought of giving up, "I must live well. I still have children."
Both her husband and son were suffering from incurable diseases. Liu Liqiu decisively used all his family savings and borrowed money from relatives and friends for active treatment.
After the death of her husband, Liu Liqiu picked up the burden of taking care of his son alone, doing three meals a day in different ways; taking care of his son's daily life; when his son was depressed and discouraged, he encouraged him and encouraged him.
She firmly believes that there will always be advanced technology that can cure her son's condition.
"Liu Li is really strong and I am proud of my children." When interviewing Liu Liqiu, she always praised Liu Li for being smart and sensible.
Although Liu Li is deaf in both ears, there is no obstacle in communicating with her mother. Liu Li, who has never learned lip language, knows what she wants to say by looking at the shape of her mother's mouth.
Liu Liqiu was able to quickly understand what he wanted to express through his son's words.
"I can't live today without a mother." Liu Li has a special affection for his mother.
Liu Li described that his mother not only gave him life, but also made him reborn. If it were not for his mother's persistence and company, "I am afraid I would not have the courage to face all this."
After years of treatment and seeking medical treatment, the mother and son were heavily in debt.
Liu Liqiu said frankly that they never buy more clothes, and that the children can buy anything they want.
Many people also suggested that Liu Liqiu apply for online fundraising to alleviate their difficulties in life, but Liu Li refused.
Liu Liqiu said: "We don't have a suitable treatment plan now. Let's donate the money to people who need it more. It is not easy for everyone to make money."
A teenager who loved to exercise and play basketball in the past can only travel in a wheelchair. Turning over, going to the ground, and going to the toilet can't be taken care of by others.
When he first learned that he had only a few years of life, Liu Li also found it difficult to accept and felt depressed for a while, but he never felt desperate, nor was he afraid of facing death, "I am not afraid. Things experienced."
The precious life is so short, Liu Li decides to live more meaningfully.
He has liked painting since he was a child and has a certain talent for painting.
Liu Liqiu remembered that when his son was very young, he painted the cups and painted them very similarly.
In the spring of 2014, Liu Li started to teach himself painting, reading books and watching instructional videos on the Internet.
Due to nerve pressure, his hands were unable to exert any strength, and it was very difficult to even pick up a paper book.
Every time I read a book, my mother turned it over and put it aside, while Liu Li lay on his side and read it.
There was no way for self-study, and progress was slow. Liu Li signed up for a painting training course online, but when he heard that Liu Li was deaf in both ears, he rejected him because he was worried that he could not keep up with the teaching progress.
If it doesn't work once, Liu Li will look for it again.
In the end, a teacher Kang from Changchun was willing to teach Liu Li and deliberately added a voice translation function to the system. Liu Li relied on inaccurate subtitles and followed other students to learn, and he persisted for more than a year.
Whenever he wakes up and his body condition is better, Liu Li will paint for a few hours.
When I was tired, I lay on my side and painted.
When painting, Liu Li made a fist with his right hand and clamped the paintbrush tightly between his thumb and index finger.
Due to lack of energy, Liu Li needed to paint dozens of times to achieve the desired effect if he wanted to paint deeper colors with colored lead.
Sometimes Liu Li feels irritable if he can't use his energy.
Whenever he stopped, he would tell himself to last one more day, one week, one month, "Tell yourself what should be left to this world." Although it takes a week for each painting of color lead Time, but Liu Li has persisted and has painted more than 200 works so far.
Liu Li also wanted to use his own ability to earn some money by selling paintings, "let my mother work harder." Liu Li made his works into postcards and greeting cards for sale.
2018 is the year of the dog, and he drew a set of dog postcards.
The Ulanhot Municipal Committee of the Xing’an League of the Communist Youth League of Inner Mongolia made a WeChat tweet to help Liu Li promote his work. Many people expressed their touch and encouragement in the comments below the tweet.
"Your business has brought me a lot of feelings, like a lamp in the dark night." "I'm tired and tired. After watching your paintings, my heart will calm down." Some people bought this set of postcards as an imminent birth. Baby's first birthday gift.
This set of postcards sold more than 300 sets, and Liu Li earned nearly 10,000 yuan.
For Liu Li, painting is a kind of spiritual comfort and an expression of his emotions to the world.
Liu Li said that every time he paints, he feels like he has entered another world, forgetting the pain, "But when I finish painting, I'm'Ge You lying down', and I feel pain everywhere."
In the process of talking with reporters, Liu Li would joke from time to time and say some internet buzzwords.
Liu Li said that before, he was an introvert and didn't want to communicate with others.
After he was paralyzed, many caring people came to see him, and he didn't want to look sad and "stiff the atmosphere."
With the help of a voice translator, he tried his best to interact and communicate with everyone in stubborn language.
Therefore, Liu Li and some young volunteers became good friends.
October 30 this year is his birthday. Liu Li invited friends to his home. When everyone sang a happy birthday song for him, he deliberately took the lead in singing "Good morning to you", which caused everyone to laugh. Liu Li told reporters: "This It's a new joke on Douyin."
Du Tieyi, a young volunteer, often went to Liu Li's home to help with cooking and cleaning.
Du Tieyi said that he particularly likes Liu Li's character. There is no burden to get along with him, but it is easy.
Whenever he is tired from work, Du Tieyi will think of Liu Li, "Look at his paintings to recharge myself."
When asked about Liu Li's wishes, he suffered from a long illness and suffered from cold sweat almost every night and couldn't fall asleep. He hoped that he would "get a good night's sleep, so that he could lose some hair and be more handsome."
