After being shot, a 3-year-old girl lived with 23 shrapnel for 8 years
A 3-year-old girl in Yunnan was ** and spent eight years with 23 shrapnel.
In a quiet village in Yunnan Province, a sudden ** event changed the trajectory of a 3-year-old girl's life. Xiaotong, a once lively and lovely girl, became an innocent victim of gun violence in the summer of 2016. Now, eight years later, Xiaotong still coexists with 23 shrapnel in her body, facing both physical and mental torture.
Recalling that bloody day, Xiaotong's brother still has palpitations. "At that time we saw two people coming, one of them carrying a gun," he said. Several of our friends were scared and hurried home. I was crouching next to the ditch and saw the man pointing a gun at my sister, and the gun went off, and my sister was hit by a bullet. This gunshot not only hit Xiaotong's body, but also shattered the happiness of her childhood and family.
After emergency rescue, doctors removed 4 shrapnel from Xiaotong's body, but 23 remained in her lungs, back and other parts. These shrapnel are like time bombs, which can cause new injuries and pain at any time. Xiaotong's family ran around to raise money for follow-up surgeries and was in debt. And Xiaotong often burst into tears because of the pain of the wound and the discomfort during the change of seasons.
Over the past eight years, Xiaotong's life has been full of hardships and challenges. Not only did she have to endure physical pain, but she also had to face psychological trauma. Li Da, vice president of the Yunnan Provincial Association of Psychologists, said: "The existence of such foreign 'cohabitants' will seriously affect the mental health of victims. "As she grew up, Xiaotong not only had to learn how to live with these shrapnel, but also struggled to overcome the effects of negative emotions such as fear and anxiety.
However, despite the difficulties, Xiaotong remains optimistic and strong. She loves to learn, has excellent grades, and is deeply loved by her teachers and classmates. In her spare time, she also likes to draw, sing and dance, expressing her love and yearning for life in her own way.
Xiaotong's story has sparked a deep reflection on the issue of gun control from all walks of life. As a very dangerous **, guns will bring great harm to society once they get out of control. In this case, Zhou's illegal possession and use of a gunpowder gun not only caused Xiaotong's physical injury, but also brought irreparable damage to her family and society.
Therefore, strengthening gun control and severely cracking down on illegal gun possession are necessary measures to maintain social security and ensure the safety of people's lives and property. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the long-term impact of gun violence on victims and families, and provide them with necessary psychological and social support.
In these challenging and hopeful times, let us work together to build a safer and more harmonious society. At the same time, we also look forward to Xiaotong being able to overcome all difficulties, bloom a brighter smile, and meet the challenges and opportunities in the future.
