Wish of No. 12

Affection File:

Name: Yan Guojin

Age: 40

Add: Hongwei community at Shiwan Street

Case: His wife died of disease last year, and he is now raising a pair of 10-year-old twins on pension and his motor job.

“We used to have a computer at home, but then we sold it for mom’s healing fee.” “We will be in Grade 6 next year, and then we can go to school alone by bike. Dad doesn’t need to send us to school so hard everyday.”

Older brother Du Ying wishes to have a computer, and younger brother Du Xiong wants a bike.

40-year-old Yan Guojin lives a hard life with his twin sons. Sending sons to school, he rides passengers with his motorcycle everyday. Behind him, the twin brothers Du Ying and Du Xiong were playing happily. Compared with their father, their faces are full of sunshine, wishing for a computer and a bike.

Having sold truck for healing wife.

Yan Guojin had a happy family: he drove a truck, his wife worked in a factory, and their twin sons were born in 2000. However, the older son Du Ying was lame with damaged muscle on the left leg because of oxygen deficiency caused by pre-mature delivery. “Diagnosed by many doctors, and he still didn’t recover.” Yan Guojin sighed. The younger Du Xiong has suffered from asthma since born and needs injection once a week. “Each check costs at least two hundred Yuan.”

The misfortune continues. After delivery, Yan Guojin’s wife suffered from Cazenave's lupus. One of her eyes was nearly blind in 2003. She was diagnosed with uremia in the next year. In order to take care of his wife, Yan Guojin sold his truck, and lived on motorcycle riding. Soon, tens of thousands of Yuan drained the family for the treatment, but his wife wasn’t saved yet.

Children started cooking at age 7

At present, Yan Guojin gets up at six o’clock, and sends children for school after breakfast. He rides passengers nearby then. He does the riding again after dinner. “Usually, I stop at 11 pm.” Considering the children are still young, he can’t go home late.

Since 2007, the brother has learned to cook and bathe by themselves. “We are good at cooking pork and egg.” The younger brother Du Xiong says. When their dad is not home, he is definitely a good housekeeper, cooking for the family.

Compared with the depressed father, the brothers are obviously more optimistic. The older brother Du Ying wants to have a computer for studying. “We had one, but it was sold for mom’s healing fee.”The younger brother Du Xiong wants a bike. “I will be in Grade 6 next year, and I can go to school by bike. My father doesn’t need to send me so hard everyday.”
