After a series of complicated and risky surgeries, China’s “folded man” is finally able to stand upright for the first time in 28 years. Li Hua suffers from ankylosing spondylitis which can cause bones to fuse and the spine curve forward. In the case of 47-year-old Li, his upper body folded forward completely. After enduring four surgeries which involved breaking and reconstructing some of his bones, he is gradually adjusting to a far more normal life than he had before.

Really admire this mother. Society should honor women like her. More than the rich and power.
I agree! She’s precious and there are so many kind, loving souls like her that deserve recognition!
What about men like her?
@@Matagu1 anyone. ANYONE deserving! Kindness doesn’t have gender.
Agreed !
Agree
"But my biggest worry was about who would take care of him after I die." That line broke me 💔
😭😭😭
That defines true LOVE, that and Christ!
SAME
Couldn't stop crying
man me too
Her saying it wasn't his fault that he got sick is so important to me. She refused to abandon him, stayed by his side through it all and got to see him heal and get better. And even after all this time, he worries about being a burden...
I hope she and Li get to do and have the things they want. They deserve it, and much more.
I love ur comment bless these two and u
It is! She is an awesome mom.
@@Starsk25 nothing awesome about this mom at all.....she is just a “mom,” in the biggest sense of the word possible!
Mothers would lay down their lives for their kids, and will never abandon them.
A Mother’s love is so deep, I cannot find the words to describe it.
@@wazz1154 Tell that to all the kids who got abandoned by their parents or die due to negligence. Sometimes, even murdered by them. Can't take a caring family for granted.
Disabled people are more than burdens, and seeing her (and several commenters) talk about him as a whole person was really wonderful.
I have been following this story for some time. His mom is an extraordinary lady. She literally went to the ends of China to find a solution for her son to get better because she was genuinely worried about what would happen to him after she died. She didn't want him to have a horrible life after her. Thanks to the Doctor and Li for taking the risk and moving forward with the operation so that he can walk now and be able to support himself with things he wasn't able to do at all before. I love that he plays the song for his mom and how she says it brings her tears each time. It is a beautiful song and she has a beautiful voice.
And especially with the context behind the story.. this mom is a die hard, with unconditional love for his son.
A true mothers heart, Just like our mother earth, keeps on giving and giving until shes almost at the end of her own life..
Im amazed, these should be the inspiration for our next generation. Instead of the flashy rappers, money and those shallow subjects
We need more love in this world ❤
Hello dear
How are you doing today?
Please, I want to communicate with him or Dr. Do you have the contact with their events because I have my sister bedridden because of arthritis
This is a beautiful song that we have sung for generations, “有妈的孩子像个宝..” and truly illustrates a mother’s love
Part of what I find so sad is that, had someone provided medication sypport when first start searching, it would have cost less financially and had way way less of a toll on his and his mother's life.
But I so agree, his indomitable spirit and his mother's deep and action oriented love
I hope his life goes well after this, the mom deserves everything she wants and great wealth.
Agreed
True.
Yep
I’m so happy for him!!!❤️💜🎈💙💛😘🎁⭐️🥰
I'd donate if I could
Greatest respect to his mother. Such a wonderful woman. Full of care, compassion and selflessness. ❤️
Absolutely..and remarkable woman
She's pretty much everything I want to be like in the future❤️
I will much like it if he play "On the floor" by JLO
He could do what every other man has tried
I gotta agree, she's really kind
In case no one noticed, the song when he played on the harmonica is a classic lullaby many chinese kids grew up with called
"世 上 只 有 妈妈好" translated to "my mother is the best in all the world". They truly deserve happiness!
and the lycics
世上只有妈妈好，有妈的孩子像块宝，投进妈妈的怀抱，幸福享不了。
没有妈妈最苦恼，没妈的孩子像根草，离开妈妈的怀抱，幸福哪里找？
世上只有妈妈好，有妈的孩子不知道。要是他知道，梦里也会笑！
世上只有妈妈好，有妈的孩子不知道。要是他知道，梦里也会笑！
That's amazing
THANK you for that info. 👍🤝😊💎
Thank you for info 🙂
I remember hearing this song on one of Jet Li's film so I am glad that for this time that I know now the title of that song.
It's real sad because he looked healthy, handsome, and happy in old photos they show. He probably had a pretty decent life ahead of him. I can't imagine losing everything.
we all talk about the mother and doctors, but let's not forget Li. he was strong enaugh to live like this for 28 YEARS and accepted an operation that could had cost him life, made respect to everyone
what would you have done in his place? especially since I would play the last card, than such a life better to miss so he tried his last chance that came to him after 28 years you have no way of knowing what it means
I'm sure anybody would accept that operation after being stuck like that for 28 years
@@cctproductions6976 do this means he wasn't courageous still to handle it ? Why are people bashing over a comment that's positive

it hurts so bad to see how his mom is crying because she doesn't wanna die and leave him behind
@Tom Johanson still tho She doesn’t wanna Die She Wanna be her son that’s the true definition of Love ❤️ that no one can’t have
😢😢
Where is his papa. If his condition could not get fixed. I thought he would die before his mama death, so his mama would not wonder who would take care of him, when his bad condition makes him die first.

Well, complaining isn't wrong either
It's natural for humans to complain about things, just try to avoid it
My ex-husband has this disease. He’s originally from Leeds, UK. He had to move to a dryer, warmer climate and ended up moving to Albuquerque, NM about 15 years ago. He’s 52 now and is thriving. I’m happy to see this other man’s recovery is going well and he’s able to have a more functional, happier life! His Mom, wow! What an extraordinary woman she is.💞
Does your ex-husband take any biological therapies? Humira or the like? I’m 26 living with this disease as well, glad to hear he is doing well!! Currently keeping active by rock climbing, hiking, chasing around my 3 year old and living life to my fullest extent... I am grateful I can still do the things I love because I know for some people suffering from this forsaken disease it is not always the story. Bless all of you AS Warriors out there!
Why’d you leave
Why you leave him tho is the question..
hope he s not become next Heisenberg
Hank Schrader moment
And I feel so embarassed of myself for crying about my life when this woman has been enduring all these hardships without any complains
do not feel embarrassed, everyone goes through different things. your pain and struggles are not invalid because someone else has it worse.
everyone needs to cry for different reasons, just remember to be grateful when you're done
@@GabToVi Thank you 💜
@@GabToVi people should always be grateful for their life no matter what happens. Gratitude is the most important thing because you cant be happy without it
@@snowlynx1585 it is important to be grateful, I never said it wasn’t.
Respect to the Chinese doctors, his assistants the nursing staff and his mother. Fantastic team effort and result.
I don't think it would have been possible to help him without being a brave doctor to take a risk. His patient could have died due to how weak he was.
must’ve cost mum a lot of money though
@@melissaharvey9387 A lot of these big ticket surgeries are performed free. The kind of status, publicity, and experience they get is worth the cost often
This comment says it all
Yes 👏
The man in his picture at 18 years old is so young, healthy and lively. Poor man, can’t imagine what he has gone through, the disease must be a nightmare upon everyone who has it
And it robbed him the best time of his life.
@@MonaHerSelfM at least he is ok rn
@@wolfmusic4955 Yeah, it is best to look at it optimistically right now ♡ I'm happy he can at least see the streets and his mother's face.
Yeah it is quite heart breaking. Appreciate your kind words. I have been living with it for around 7 years now. Doing okay!! I have taken biological therapies to slow and (to an extent) stop the damage being done to my bones.
@@jacobtumey2895 wishing you the best of luck! My hope for your fullest recovery is with you
This brought me to tears. I was raised without a mother. While parents in China dream of their child going to Harvard, this mother spent her days taking care of her son who couldn’t sit up straight. She never gave up on him. Her unconditional love and support speaks volumes. No amount of money can repay it. And we can see that he still struggles. His situation isn’t ideal, yet he is so grateful. He has dreams and goals in life.
I will never get tired of following this particular story, never!
Its so touching.
Same here. So glad to see this new video uploaded today!
Same
He should make his own channel (YT, bilibili, weibo, etc), and show the weekly progress in 3-4 minutes video.
(his relative could help filming and editing)
That way he could save some money
@@ETERNlTUS absolutely a brilliant idea! I only the current channel gives him a percentage of the revenue it generates here as support or maybe they sponsored the surgery in a way and this coverage is a way he pays back in bits. I support your idea that he creates a channel
The song he plays at the start with the harmonica is a chinese childrens song. A song dedicated to mothers, rough translation of the song name "Mothers are the best in the world".
@Don’t talk to me cause I probably hate u 世上只有妈妈好
Thankyou so much...
@@Flcmnc thx alot! I have been trying to find this song, and it sounded so familiar since i heard it a few years ago💜

you’re right!! i guess i wasn’t paying attention, but yeah, and it’s so sweet because his mom took care of him for all this time and he’s playing this song about how mothers are the best in the world ❤️
She said, "I won't complain about my life, no matter how hard things are." She is so amazing.
She is beyond honour in fact she EXCEEDS Humanity

He was drinking too much coca cola.
i have seen the video about his story before months ago
and my tears came out right after the seconds he played his harmonica.
I don't know the lyrics about that song but i knew this song is about how big mom's love is..
and i have been familiar with this song since my childhood.

To think that there are parents out there who dump their children because they may be slightly Autistic or something, just give up on the child, and then there is this Mother, who stuck by her son for nearly 30 YEARS, Took out a massive loan and helped her son out so much, I have massive respect for her, she deserves so much respect.
not only that but they rather their kids die from a preventable desease instead of them becoming autistic (which isn't even how autism works, you don't develop it, you're either born autistic or you're not born autistic and that's it) (yes anti-vaxxers i'm talking about you)
I have autism, my mom take care me better with extra help until I can pursue high education
@@zuko803 great to hear that you are fine and that your mom isnt a Karen
yes bless her soul
My mother seriously told me to die just because I am physically weak. Nice thing to say to a suicidal person.
My relationship with my mother is dangling on a thread.
He is happy that he can now lie flat on bed, stand up straight..
We physically stable human beings don't appreciate what we have
Its a RARE condition. Why would anyone appreciate something that we are born to do? Its normal to stand up straight.

he just has bad rng so he was born with that condition

"A child without a mother is like a lone blade of grass." What a powerful quote! Salute to all the mothers out there. I love you all. and also to Dr. Tao's team of experts who made the impossible, possible. Thank you all for helping this man. The 27 years of being a burden to his mom are finally gone.
They totally need to do an update💗
its actually the lyrics of the song hes playing
Some mothers killed their children 😢😓😰😥😱
Can you not call him a burden for something he couldn’t control please and thank you !! She loves him enough to do this that should be all that matters
i love that song. my mother used to sing it to me all the time
Dr Tao deserves a medal. such an honorable doctor Being the only one who wanted to fix Li’s life
Yes!! President Xi should honor him and his team for this unbelievable operation!!!
I agree！
The others probably did not believe in themselves Dr Tao did and I’m glad he saved this man’s life

Oh..
Yes... Malaysian chinese sing this song too... Tribute to our moms
I dont think it was only from Malaysia or Singapore
@@BytzDrawz This song is mostly sang in Asian Countries, like China, Malaysia, Singapore etc+.
@@BytzDrawz no one ever said it was
Let's appreciate the doctor's hard work also.
Thanks for the likes.
as a wise man once said , the best helper is the one who will do everything that's possible to help someone else
All the doctors, and countless other medical professionals such as xray techs, nurses, surgery assistants, all the admin personnel, etc. I’m sure these operations were successful by the efforts of hundreds of people.
Surely
Many will call his mother admirable, but in her own eyes she is just doing what she believes is expected of her as his mother. The thought of it being another way does not even cross her mind. That's what is truly admirable.
From his youth picture, you can tell he was a handsome fellow with potentials in his life. It's hard to imagine someone going thru this for 28 years. Life is full of challenges, his story reminds me to stay humble and grateful for what I have.
Also a tremendous amount of awe for his mother and the medical team for making miracles happen.
Ikr!!! He was so cuteee
He was the handsomest of them all in the pic
Someone start a go fund me. I know he already went through the surgery, but they deserve more than a small business and an old house.
You could be that someone 😊
how does one get their contact info?
Try through the person who made the video
I would donate for sure
He could definitely benefit from REAL rehabilitation & therapy!!!
This is so promising. I wish him a fast recovery
Yes
same
@@kitchfacepalm yes
I remember seeing a video about Li years ago where he had yet to get the surgeries. Seeing this one now where Li can stand and do the little things he couldn't do on his own before is heartwarming. The relationship he has with his mom is beautiful and I wish the family all the best.
This Mother must be accorded with some international award.
Society is only interested to give awards and accolades to the rich n famous even if what they do is hideous.
@@eunicetan3367 this is sadly true :(
The mother got what she wanted. Peace of mind that her child would no longer suffer and to be able to take care of himself when she is gone. That is worth more than any wealth or accolades.
@@kareny5438 absolutely correct. Peace of mind indeed she got.
This poor guy is 46... it's a shame that it takes seeing a poor man and his mom suffering so long to realize how much we take for granted. We scurry from one room to another on a different floor and chase after dogs and children and here's a guy thankful he can *even* cross a room or brush his teeth or go to the bathroom normally. I complain about how much overtime I have to work when li is happy he can work at all. I know everyone has problems and they are all valid but when put in perspective like this? Jeezz😑
Amen
great comment
Really thought my issues were bad till I saw this
It really makes me more appreciative of being able bodied. Like I have so many insecurities about my appearance but now I've realized it doesn't matter. My body takes me from point A to point B without even having to think which is all that matters.
Yes, when you just become adult as 18 years old. Then your back goes down that you cant live properly unitil your 46 years old where you have already lived past all your young adulthood years you could have enjoyed. What kind of feeling you must then have? I hope he will have better next life and not be so unlucky in next life then, when big unluck can turn peoples life around to make life bad.
The doctors recently diagnosed my brother, who is 27 years old, with this disease. He has been in pain for about 5 years, and after going to many different doctors, finally we were able to find out what’s causing it all. I’m happy to find this video. It give me hope that my brother one day will be able to walk again. So sad to see them struggle due to something they have no control of 😢
Val B ask him to do exercises even if he could do only little movement. Tell him to move his body parts as much as he can on daily basis
I am so sorry.
I saw a comment above from someone with the same diagnose, he told he kept running everyday even feeling like knives, he beat the disease
@@dc.pentrumesteri4893 My thoughts & prayers are with you & her brother. I pray that science continues to advance so that a better treatment is found for your condition & any other one that is cruel & with so much unknown. Sending you the most positive energy ever!!! Hugs & Blessings soon!
Hoping and praying for you and your brotha! Everything will be ok, don't worry!! One step at a time!!
Being a parent myself, my admiration for the mother is limitless, her love and devotion could only come from a parent
I’ve seen mothers who are stuck like this do it begrudgingly. This woman does it with a smile.
I’ll never understand mothers who resent their kid cause they have to take care of them. If you’re not ready for every scenario possible that could happen to your child than you shouldn’t have kids
@@witchmoonstone444 she shouldn't have had to be like this just because they didn't have enough money for treatment before. Isn't it ironic that this is in China but could actually be in the USA.
Yes. Such a wonderful human :"")
and what about the fathers?... Why always mothers take the burden?
@@Nebulousss Because the fathers are usually the ones who have to work and bring in the income. Sometimes that ain't the case.
Mother is always a mother. Very happy to see him walking.
Every one isnt the same though sadly some psychopaths exist who torture their kids
@@mysyntax1311 that's the case for me
True.. 🤔
He is unfortunate to have this disease, but he is also fortunate to have such a wonderful mom. Hope he gets well
I hope he can have a family and his mom will be happy if she gets to become a grandma. (Most Chinese parents like it)
His mother looked so happy when walking with him after his recovery, I can only imagine the happiness she feels to finally bring some relief to her son after so long. What a strong woman!
The greatest crime in this story is how poverty kept him suffering for 28 years. It’s absolutely unacceptable that his condition got to the level that it did and no one helped him until now.
That’s not even poverty. I have no idea the cost for all of this. Millions for sure.
It's the skill, no doctor dared to operate those series of surgeries until recently, he and his mom were facing this since twenty years ago. They are all great people and heroes.
It's remarkable the huge cost not only to him but the hospital that he could not receive effective treatment until recently when the disease became so severe. However, we don't know entirely what the situation was more than 28 years ago.
the greatest crime in this story is the lack of a well founded public health system.
i also think 20 years they didnt do such surgeries coz they didnt have enough knowledge about it
I pray the mom will go to heaven. She makes me cry.
No need to pray, natural phenomenon...
@Xevalain Zera THIS MOTHER, IS AN ANGEL ON EARTH, NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. FANTASTIC STORY.
If she isn't then noone is
Mum shall be given award for dedication
My heart breaks for that mother. She deserves the same love and support she so selflessly gives.
"I won't complain about my life, no matter how hard it gets"
Li Hua is absolutely awesome for fighting for so long. I absolutely love him. I love how he plays that song for his mum to show his appreciation and to encourage her. I love how the two interact with each other. The mum keeps the child fighting for himself, the child keeps the mum strong. They're both absolutely amazing.
Keep fighting, Li Hua! You're doing great!

This made me cry uncontrollably. His mother is so beautiful, and so is he for knowing the patience that his mother had to have. A mother's love is like no other. ❤
She doesn't need anything from her son, all she need is seeing his smile. That itself makes them happy. So thanks to the doctor for offering some help. I'm happy that they are happy.
I cried seeing how pure a mom like her. Heaven will acknowledge an angel like her, In God's Will.
Thank you , to the only doctor who considered even taking his case on!
It has changed everything.
It is a story with a very happy outcome. The mom, the Doctor and the patient himself, all deserve so much respect and love. Yet I can't stop my tears from flowing, when heard this man at least in his 40s played the song "mom is the best in the world".
It is astonishing to see what technology can provide us these days. Imagine all those years not being able to stand up right and basically being “glued” to the lower half of your body, then in a year, make it towards recovery. Absolutely amazing!

Watching Li's mother cry breaks my heart. She is amazing and so is he. I am so happy to see the progress he is making. I can't even imagine the pain he was in after all of those surgeries, but obviously it was worth it all. Hoping there are more updates in the future!
As a mom with special needs son, I cried too when she said she worries about who will care for her son when she dies. It is such a fear I share. In America there are loads of anti abortion groups...yet many of the same people do not believe in helping people who are struggling. Wth is that about?! People should help each other. Fortunately we are not in need, but millions of other people are.
Why are you bringing up abortion? Do you regret not having one or not being one?
@@natc1008 Read the text again. She means that there're so many of anti-abortion people who condemn other women for their abortion. They want the mother to keep the baby even though if they couldn't take care (because of money, time, their own health etc) of a child with disabilities. But when a mother then listens to these people, because she thinks she is getting help from them, they leave her alone.

His mother should be given recognition and awarded a special place in history. This is what life, love and hard work is all about. A mother's unwavering commitment day in day out! Nothing compares to this mother. I applaud you and other mother's around the globe.
But instead our society goes Gaga over spurious empty headed glitterati from Hollywood !
It is people like this man and his Mother who should be placed on a pedestal and regarded as true role models for all of us.
I second his opinion.. He has the greatest mum in the world.. Im a mother myself and would like to think I would do the same, but in truth I just don't know because it would take an enormous amount of strength mentally and physically to care for her son the way she has.. I deeply admire them both
I love the honesty
So happy to see that Li Hua is able to stand straight and is doing better!! His mom is amazing. Much love and blessings to them both and anyone who makes their lives better.
I'm very glad for you my friend. I live everyday in horrible pain from losing my legs as a baby. So I know what it's like 2 not have Mobility like you would like to have so no, I'm smiling because the last video I seen you were still bent over and now you're standing up straight. I pray that your condition will continue to improve.

I have this disease and it affects everyone differently. Some have it harder than others. What Ive learned so far which has helped me a lot is that you have to believe and help yourself first. Trust in yourself and dont give up. This disease maybe scary but the only way you get defeated is when you give up and stop trying. Try out something new everyday and soon I hope youll find yourself in a better place than you were before.
Hope you all get healed and my prayers to everyone suffering the same disease.
I wish all the best to you

When my uncle was dying from cancer, he was wailing for his mother. He didn't call out for his wife, or his children, but he called out for his mother who was 97 years old.
That's how powerful the bond of a mother and a child is.
As a hospice nurse, I have heard people asking for their mom and sometimes dad. It always tugs at my heart.
Brb gonna go hug my parents
Feels
Same with my paternal grandfather, when he was dying of lung cancer at 85. He was such a serious, dignified man and I’m not sure he’d even mentioned his mother (long gone of course, I believe she passed away young in their native India) for decades. When the end was fairly close and the pain escalated at a pace at which it briefly outran his pain-relieving medication, he suddenly started crying out for his mother. My father was very very shaken up.
When he plays harmonica, that song made me remember of my grandma who already passed away, she always love sang this song to me before sleep 😭
The song is about mothers...
@@hiimryan2388 a grandma is still a mother, though.
Mama hao..my grandma used to sing this song as a lullaby when I was a little boy. Ever since this pandemic started, i cannot visit her. I miss her a lot..
Im so sorry for ur loss🥺
I am really sorry for your loss . I also dont have my grand ma and grandpa 😢.
Take care.buddy
Li was lucky guy because he have "angel mom" from heaven . May Allah always bless both of them and protect them. 🤲🤲🤲🤲
She’s given up so much of her life so her son can have something. Not something you see happen today with humans. She’s truly a angel and I wish her many years to still come with her son.
The Chinese are an enduring people. Truly a story of strength in every sense.
The people are amazing but the goverment and some people destroying it
Look xu xiadong story
@@stressedbyamountainofbooks dude called out so many fakes and get attacked
@@stressedbyamountainofbooks That dude is a legend for what he is doing for the Chinese Martial Arts community. He has my full respect.
@@XxTHEKINGxX you don’t know anything about their government
This story had my eyes watering 😭. Li’s mother is an absolute angel, it was heartbreaking seeing her cry speaking about her worries for him after she passes :( I’m so happy his surgeries were a success!! 💛 They both deserve so much happiness
Big love to his mum for being there for her son. She deserves all the praises and respect as she never gave up on him. Well done to the doctors and the medical staff that helped him onto the road of recovery 🙏🏽💛💯
The word "Mother" can't be discribed in word. She is the real hero of her childrens.

Just a small grammar correction. Sorry if I am being rude.
@@ipsharoy7398 ohh no no you're not rude thank you for telling me my grammar is really bad i'll learn more to improve it and thanks again
@@calmingheart4047 no, your grammar is not bad. It is average, and I am sure that you will improve fast 😄 have a nice day!
The song he was playing on the harmonica is a famous nursery rhyme that every Chinese person knows. "Shi Shang Zhi You Mama Hao" can be roughly translated to "mom is the best in the world" and is equivalent to Rockabye Baby. It means alot to him because his mother took care of him for so long.
Wow! That’s so beautiful! The scene of them playing together towards the end was incredibly heartwarming 💜🥺
Thanks for the translation..truly appreciate it.
He's not only fighting for his own existent, he's representing countless of people who had lost hope. He inspired me to never give up. Thank you!
You are so right. He stopped me from giving up. What a beautiful mother he has.
i feel like this case have taught me so many things and I have so much respect for li, his mom and the doc. i wish more ppl can learn to appreciate what we hv regardless how small it is. i wish li will be able to recover soon and do everything he wants to do that he couldn't in the past.
Hi can you give me your contract
I’m so glad there was an update. I thought he was the gentlest-hearted person and I’ve been wondering about him since I saw the first video.
He looks so tired and old from the disease, i hope he will recover fully and be happy from there on. 🙏🙏
K Itch it is indeed a shame hundred of thousands get untreated from diseases or disorders mainly because of wealth
@@safayetahmedaraf293 Sometimes it's not just because of wealth. Some disease are just unable to be cured, which is really sad
Devon Christopher agreed we humans are really behind instead of spending in the military we should spend more on research and medicine
@@safayetahmedaraf293 rich people spending money on useless things and evil science while there is tons of things could be done with their money and knowledge
Desert Moon lee exactly theres no cure to death yet people spend millions upon millions on it
"A child without a mum is like a lone blade of grass." His mom sang as he played. 💔
The definition of a mother's love. What a wonderful pair these are. The sole comfort, outside of his miraculous improvement, despite the tragedy of this poor man living 30 years in this kind of physical ordeal, is that he had such an incredible mother with him the entire time. Bless these heroic doctors also. I would love to think of the new ground they can consider with the experience gained succeeding in such a ginormous test of their capability.
Poor guy, half of his life gone. I honestly hope there is an afterlife, so this guy can get to live out his best moments even after he dies.
There is and they will both have a wonderful afterlife with no pain or worry.
THIS THE GREATEST EXAMPLE OF WHAT A MOTHERS LOVE MEANS, NEVER,NEVER NEVER, EVER GIVE UP ON YOUR CHILDREN.
He and his mother has gone through lot of pain which is unimaginable. I wish them peace and happiness.
Respect to his mom, without mom life is empty. congrats to him for not giving up, he deserves happiness.
I felt that mother’s pain when she said she was so worried that no one would take care of her son if she died. My youngest daughter has very profound autism and needs help with every single daily thing for life. This mother has given me so much hope and courage and strength!! May they live wonderful lives 🥰
I salute this Man and even greater salute to his Mother who never gave up on him all throughout his life.
A Mother's Unconditional L❤VE is always and will be the GREATEST . . 😊🙇♂️🙏❤❤❤
Correction: this mother’s unconditional love. It doesn’t happen magically. This is a special woman.
This is so true ❤🙏
His mom is one of the most sincere people I've ever seen. Great woman.
Mom is indeed the best in the world. She is the example of the most selfless, unconditional kind of love in this world. When she cried due to her worries and fears of what would happen to her som when she died, it brought tears to my eyes.
He looks almost afraid to look down, and I don’t blame him.
@human bean oh okay that makes sense. Appreciate that
Yeah I don't think he can even move his head from side to side...but all in all it's a HUGE improvement!! Maybe with physical therapy and time he will be able to have more movement 😇
I don’t know exactly, but i think they would have put a metal rod in his neck and back to hold him up straight and so all the spine bones heal together into one long solid bone as opposed to separate vertebrate pieces like a regular spine (I think that’s what a spinal fusion is). So he can’t move his neck or back like a regular person, but at least he has a much better quality of life than before.
King👑 I would not say not afraid, more of I've looked down for 20yrs and I know that looks like so I am keeping this head up high💯
Yeah, his posture is so rigid now
I don't have the words to describe how much this man's dedication and his mother's love have inspired me, they've changed my perspective on life altogether. I'll start being grateful for the tiniest thing that I've taken for granted and not be dejected due to petty issues. Thank you Li Hua and your beautiful mother.
💯
I cried deeply when she was crying because she was worried he would be miserable if she had died. As a new mom I understand her pain. I am happy he his getting better
NB. Never have i had this many likes. Thanks everyone for feeling the same.
That part touched me deeply too.
mom love is so special nothing can replace it
My mum loves me
