On December 13, Li Wanyu's family, a resident of Jiangbei Teachers' Apartment, finally ushered in the day of housewarming. The block, which is almost in ruins, has been left empty by a project to expropriate state-owned land and housing. However, Li Wanyu's situation is very special. He has been suffering from ALS for 8 years, but now only 30% of his spontaneous breathing rate has not been downstairs for five years. In the afternoon of the same day, the sedan chair made by the staff of the demolition and relocation office successfully lifted him down the 6th floor and sent him to his new home. The family's relocation became a daunting challenge as they were facing the stress of ALS. Li Wanyu's family is from Hebei Province and has lived in Ningbo for more than 20 years. In 2015, 38-year-old Li Wanyu felt weakness and atrophy of his arm muscles, and was diagnosed with ALS. Also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, this condition causes the muscles in the limbs to atrophy and weaken over time, eventually leading to respiratory failure.
In May this year, Li Wanyu's condition deteriorated significantly, with only 30% of his spontaneous breathing rate, and he needed to use a ventilator every day and need oxygen. On the morning of December 12, when reporters followed the demolition and relocation office staff to the door, Li Wanyu's elderly parents were taking turns pressing on his abdomen. In the past few years, Li Wanyu's muscle weakness has made him unable to use chest breathing, so he can only switch to abdominal breathing, and he needs to rely on external force. Without the help of others, he had to constantly pitch himself to breathe. The situation was also investigated by a team from the Office of Demolition and Relocation and Demolition. At the beginning of March this year, when the Yonghong Block Reconstruction Project began, the staff of the Demolition and Relocation Office began to understand the special situation of residents in the community, with special attention to the elderly living alone and the disabled. Li Wanyu thus entered the field of vision of the working group. In mid-September, the demolition project entered the contract stage. At the time of signing the contract, Li Wanyu's wife expressed to the staff of the demolition and relocation office the difficulties her husband faced in the relocation.
The working group also learned that Li Wanyu's condition is not easy to solve, and that not only ambulances are needed, but also more resources are needed. The family's relocation challenge was a real test, but the Demolition and Relocation Office and other relevant organizations still helped in various ways. They hope to provide more support to help Li Wanyu's family settle into their new home. The courage and resilience of this family is admirable, and we need more attention and support to enable them to overcome this daunting challenge. The old man wanted his son to go out through the main entrance, but this requirement was a new challenge for the self-made sedan chair they designed. After much thought, the working group finally came up with a solution that was both safe and comfortable: install two iron wheels at the bottom of the sedan chair, so that Li Wanyu could go out with his face facing outward. At the same time, in order to ensure Li Wanyu's safety, the working group also specially selected a handling team composed of 7 people and told them to pay attention to strength, speed and stability.
In the end, with the efforts of this team, Li Wanyu and his self-made sedan chair were successfully transported to the new home. This seemingly ordinary thing contains the embodiment of respect and love for life. In the case that there is no elevator and no barrier-free facilities in the old community, the working group and the Li family have created this special vehicle with their own hands and hard work, so that patients with reduced mobility can also be relocated smoothly and enjoy their old age in peace. The design and production of the self-made sedan chair is not only a technical innovation, but also a manifestation of humanistic care. It conveys a profound message to us: whether it is a physical inconvenience or a spiritual dilemma, as long as it is accompanied by love, we can overcome all kinds of difficulties and usher in the hope of tomorrow. In the face of difficulties, we need not only technical support, but also humanistic care. As the members of the working group put it, "We need to do everything with our heart so that everyone who relocates can feel that we care about it."
This sentence not only applies to the production of this homemade sedan chair, but also applies to all aspects of our lives. Only by doing it with our hearts can we make love ubiquitous in every bit of life and become the most beautiful footnote in our lives. "96 steps, patient first aid successfully completed!"This is the good news from the Yonghong community recently. Li Wanyu is seriously ill and needs to be admitted to the hospital. However, his family lived on the 96th floor, which caused great difficulties for the family. Under the careful arrangement of the community, the fire brigade, the community doctor and the staff of the demolition and relocation office worked together to allow Li Wanyu to successfully walk out of the house. What are the touching stories behind this?Li Wanyu's family faced unparalleled pressure, but they did not give up. Compared to other residents, they did not choose to give up their new homes, but rose to the challenge without hesitation. With the help of the community, they embark on an adventure. In this adventure, the Yonghong community played an important role.
They not only contacted the Jiangbei Fire Brigade, but also arranged for community doctors to follow up on the patients throughout the process. In this process, the professionalism of the community staff has been fully reflected. In this process, the professional skills of firefighters are also fully utilized. They have developed detailed protocols to ensure that the patient's condition is fully considered. They lifted the patient out of the wheelchair and carefully transferred him to the chair. In the process of walking the 96 steps, they constantly check the patient's condition and adjust his sitting posture to ensure the patient's safety. In the process, the unity of family members is also fully demonstrated. Together, the family faced this extremely difficult challenge, encouraged and supported each other, and finally embarked on a difficult but successful path. In the process, the spirit of community is also fully developed. They are not simply concerned with one family, but with the development of the entire community. With their efforts, they have brought new hope to this community.
In this process, each person's story is unique. Some of them are family members, some are firefighters, and some are community workers. However, they all have one thing in common: they fight for a goal. Their efforts make the future of the community better. This story tells us that as long as we stick together and work hard, we will be able to overcome difficulties. The example Xi of the Yonghong community is a model worth learning from. Let's work together to make our community a better place!
