Compassion is not born of reluctance, it descends from heaven like nectar; it gives happiness not only to those who receive it, but also to those who give.

Every miracle of life will have its own warm story, if you can't believe in the power of love and gratitude, look at those who have survived the disaster, when life is restarted, only this noble quality will be deeply engraved in the heart.

As Shakespeare said, when a group of people work together to protect and witness the miracle of life, this is destined to be a journey that makes people yearn and extremely moving.

In South Africa, there was a vegetative boy named Martin who was bedridden for fourteen years. But just under the parents' non-abandonment and the care of heaven, the "ghost boy" waited for the day of awakening.

If Martin had not recovered as before, the inhuman treatment he had suffered on his sickbed would not have been known, but this boy who silently endured everything and attained nirvana in the fire of fate was destined to deserve the praise of the world!

The sky is falling, and the sunshine boy is sick

Martin was born in Johannesburg in 1975. Originally, Martin Jr. was a happy boy, and his father was an engineer in a large company with a good income. Martin grew up carefree in a solid family from birth, but this happiness suddenly ended when Martin was 12 years old.

In 1987, Martin attended classes at the school as usual. Suddenly, he felt particularly uncomfortable, as if his body was beginning to get out of control. There was no way, Martin could no longer stick to class, came to the hospital for examination, and unexpectedly, the nightmare began, and he never returned to school.

In the hospital, doctors performed a detailed examination for Martin and diagnosed cryptococcal meningitis and tuberculosis. Although the doctor tried his best to rescue Martin, Martin did not get better. After a period of treatment, Martin's condition completely deteriorated.

From the very beginning, martin was still able to live in a state of self-care, Martin began to gradually become weaker and weaker, and his physical functions gradually disappeared, and he could not even speak and completely lost his voice.

Since the cause could not be finally confirmed, the doctor simply said that Martin's symptoms were typical of frostbite and vegetative people. After another period of treatment, the doctor announced that Martin had become a vegetative person and would never wake up again.

But Martin's parents did not want to give up their son, as long as Martin could breathe normally and have a normal heartbeat, they did not want to give up, hoping that this line of life could create miracles.

Some time later, Martin was discharged from the hospital and was taken home by his parents to take care of him. Although every day was hard, they still persevered.

The unable to move body contains a beating soul

In the first few years of Martin's coma, he was indeed asleep, unable to move or conscious. However, as time went on, it was not known whether the lesions in Martin's brain had changed, or whether the parents' care had restored Martin's body. His brain gradually woke up, slowly able to perceive everything in the outside world, that is, the body could not move.

In this way, Martin became very miserable, and his predicament caused him to suffer greatly mentally.

There have been many changes in the life of the parents in order to take care of Martin, and the mother has become very anxious, sometimes even complaining to Martin: "How good it should be to end all this, we can be free." ”

The stress of life caused her mother's mental state to be in trouble, and she had also had suicidal tendencies. And this is even more cruel to Martin, whose brain has awakened, he can feel the despair and pain of his mother, but he can do nothing, and can only swallow all the pain alone.

Martin's father lost his position as an engineer to take care of him, but he still bathed Martin regularly, cleaned his body, massaged him, and maintained muscle function, and the father was confident that his son would get better. Martin felt his father's love, still could not say anything, could not do anything, could only do a silent cry in his heart.

In order to survive, the parents would occasionally go to work in the field for a while, and at this time the parents would send Martin to a nursing home, where the caregiver would take care of Martin.

If what Martin felt at home was the pain of not being able to communicate with his parents, the time spent waiting for his parents in a nursing home was a purgatory of pain. Because these caregivers are not all kind people, the hard work will make them crazy, and even often vent their dissatisfaction by abusing patients who cannot take care of themselves.

Martin, of course, is the safest venting object in their eyes. The nurses insulted Martin with the most ugly words, slapped Martin, and even shoved hot spoons into Martin's mouth. Some perverted caregivers also sexually harassed Martin.

In any case, Martin could not move or speak, and he could only choose to suffer all these atrocities silently like a plant. With a turbulent heart, Martin had no choice but to pray in his heart.

The reversal of fate in the face of nobles creates miracles

Perhaps God heard Martin's prayerful prayer and wanted to surprise the boy who had suffered so much. Martin met the noble man of his life at the age of 26, when Martin had been lying on his sickbed for 14 years.

She is a very kind female nurse named Wiener. She takes care of these patients every day, and her work is very careful and meticulous.

One day, Wiener noticed that Martin's expression was a little different from usual, or that Martin began to have a slight facial expression, and Wiener immediately informed Martin's parents, which was a big surprise for Martin's parents.

Without a moment's delay, they immediately sent Martin to a generational communication center and began testing martin. The test results were quite encouraging, and the doctor affirmatively told Martin's parents: "Martin is conscious, and his body is recovering." ”

Years of persistence finally waited for a miracle, Martin's parents were ecstatic, and the mother immediately quit her job and went home to take care of her son.

The effort paid off, and Martin recovered well and made rapid progress under the careful care of his parents. He first learned to communicate with the outside world with the help of computer programs, just like Hawking, transforming his thinking into computer language, communicating with others, and at the same time carrying out physical rehabilitation.

After several years of hard work, Martin, a 14-year-old vegetative person, has gradually recovered to no different from normal people.

In the process of rehabilitation, Martin did not forget to study, returned to school to complete the school, and finally Martin became a web designer through his own efforts.

Not only that, since waking up, Martin's life seems to be hanging. As his career progressed, he met the love of his life, Joanna, who fell in love with each other after marriage and gave birth to two lovely children.

It is said that the great difficulty does not die, there will be a blessing, and Martin's experience is a true portrayal. Martin, who has a successful career, has experienced great difficulties, and he is really blessed, but everything he has is also the result of countless love and gratitude.
