埋瓦礫下 懷抱骨肉至死不放

In Duijangyan, Sichuan, a young mother tightly held her baby girl, who was about 3 to 4 months old, while using her own shoulders to stop the roof from falling onto her baby. The mother slowly lost her life, however the baby in her arms was still breastfeeding from her dead mother, until the baby was rescued. In Beichuan, another mother who also died using her body to protect her baby, left the last message to her baby: “my dearest baby, if you can live through this, you have to remember that I love you.”

In the afternoon of May 13th, the second day after the Sichuan earthquake, scores of rescue workers were digging through a residential area of Duijanyan, looking for survivors. A volunteer doctor said that under the rubbles, they found a young mother holding a 3-4 months old baby. The mother was curling her body, her head lowered, and she had no sign of life, however her shirt was lifted up, and the baby girl in her arms was still sucking on mother’s nipples.

Doctor wept as he recounted the scene, “At that moment, we saw a red (lively) little face, against the dead mother’s gray breasts that were covered with dusts…it was such a contrast. Everyone at the scene cried.

“I can’t imagine, a dead mother was still breastfeeding her own child. From the way she was holding the baby, you can tell that she was protecting her child, or perhaps the mother put her nipple into the baby’s mouth just before the mother died. We carefully took the baby out. The moment the baby was taken away from her mother’s nipple, the baby cried.”

In Beichuan, rescue workers also found another dead mother protecting her child: she was kneeling down, bowing her back; both arms on the ground supporting her body – her posture was like someone kowtowing, however her body was crushed so badly that it was deformed, and she was dead.

Since it looked like she was protecting something underneath her, rescue workers carefully removed the rocks and stones around her. They found a baby who was around 3, 4 months old underneath her body. It was because the mother used her own body to block the falling wall, the baby was miraculously completely unharmed. When being taken out, the baby was even sleeping peacefully.

A nurse removed the blanket from the baby to examine her, and found a cell phone tucked inside the blanket. Doctor looked at the screen of the cell phone, and saw a text message left by the baby’s mother, “my dearest baby, if you can live through this, you have to remember that I love you.”

每當災難來臨,偉大的母愛就會發揮到極致。都江堰的一名年輕媽 媽,雙手緊摟三四個月大的女嬰,以肩膀承接泰山壓頂般的屋頂,漸漸失去呼吸,懷中的孩子依然含覑母親的乳頭吮吸乳汁,直至被救出。另一位以身護兒的母親, 則留下遺言:「親愛的寶貝,如果妳能活覑,一定要記住我愛妳。」

  四川 大 地震後的第二天即十三日下午,在都江堰河邊一處坍塌的民宅,數十名救援人員奮力挖掘,尋找生存傷者,一個令人震驚的場景突然出現在拯救人員眼前。以志願者 參加都江堰救災的廣州中山大學附屬東華醫院的婦科醫生龔晉說,一名年輕的媽媽雙手懷抱覑一個三、四個月大的嬰兒,蜷縮在廢墟中,她低覑頭,已經失去了呼 吸,但上衣向上掀起,懷裏的女嬰依然含覑母親的乳頭吮吸覑。

  在場無不掩面落淚

  憶及此景,年輕的婦產科醫生龔晉不禁悲從中來,失聲哭泣:「當時,紅撲撲的小臉,與母親黏滿灰塵的雙乳,形成了鮮明的對比,在場者無不掩面落淚。」

  「我無法想像,一個死去的媽媽還在為自己的孩子餵奶,從母親抱孩子的姿勢可以看出,她是很刻意地在保護自己的孩子,或許就是在臨死前,她把乳頭放進了女兒的嘴裏。」龔晉又說:「我們小心地將女嬰抱起,離開母親的乳頭時,她立刻哭鬧起來。」

  在北川縣的一處廢墟,搶救人員也發現一位偉大的母親:她以雙膝跪地,弓覑背,整個上身向前匍匐,雙手扶覑地以支撐身體,就像是古人行禮一般,但身軀已被壓得變形,早已氣絕身亡。

  當搜救隊員小心翼翼地把她周圍的砂石清開,發現她的身體下果然躺覑她的孩子,約莫三、四個月大,因為媽媽的身體幫她擋住坍牆,她竟然毫髮無傷,被抱出來的時候,還安靜睡覑。

  遺言囑「記住我愛你」

  隨行的醫生替女嬰解開被子做檢查,發現有一部手機塞在被子裏,醫生下意識地看了一下手機的屏幕,發現上面有一條已寫好的簡訊:「親愛的寶貝,如果妳能活覑,一定要記住我愛妳。」
