Seventeen-year-old boy has vascular malformations in his brain, saving 4 people with his own organs at the last minute of his life.


Two months after his coma, he left, only 17 years old.

At the last moment of his life, the organ he donated successfully saved the lives of four strangers. His parents said that this made them feel that "the son is still alive."

All of this happened in just 10 hours last night.

The doctor said

This is a particularly sensible child.

The 17-year-old Ai Xin family is in Jingzhou City. Like many local middle school students, his parents work hard outside, and he studies hard at home.

In 2019, Ai Xin’s body suddenly appeared abnormal. When walking, the whole person swayed and often fell. The local hospital found that he had vascular malformations in his brain and needed craniotomy. The sudden loss of life has completely changed the life of Ai Xin, and the parents gnawed their teeth to sell the house and raised money to treat him. In 2019 and 2019, he underwent craniotomy twice, but the results were not satisfactory. In May of this year, his condition deteriorated further and he was sent to Wuhan People's Hospital by his family.

According to the doctor who treated Ai Xin, he is a very strong and sensible child. "As long as you wake up, you always look very sunny. Every time you call me 'Doctor Uncle', you will comfort your parents and say that he will Well, he has to give them a pension."

However, the disease is ruthless, and Ai Xin quickly falls into a state of continuous coma. The doctor regrets that his chances of surviving are extremely small.

Ai Xin is the only child in the family, and parents can't bear such grief. On July 10th, Ai Xin's situation became more and more critical. His father suddenly came to the office of Professor Zhou Jiangqiao, an organ transplant specialist in the hospital, and expressed his wish to donate the child's organs. He said that he had seen reports of organ donation in the newspaper. If his son really couldn't do it and could keep his organs in the world, he would feel that his son was still alive.

The Yi family’s righteous move touched the medical staff, and the hospital made an exception to arrange for his parents to visit the intensive care unit. They whispered the name of their son and stroking his son's face with his hands. Over and over again, all the people present could not help but burst into tears.

Red will say

This is a very rustic family

“Ai Xin’s parents are one of the strongest and most determined donors I have ever met.” Yesterday, Luo Gangqiang, head of the Wuhan Red Cross Organ Donation Management Center, said, “They are very quiet, very few words, I Asked if they are sure to make a donation on behalf of their son, they endured tears and nodded. I asked them again, are there any difficulties, there are no requirements, can tell me, I will do everything to help them, they listened Then just shook his head."

After learning that 10 days later, Ai Xin’s name will be engraved on the Shimen Peak Donor Monument. Every year, when volunteers go to worship, Ai Xin’s father said softly: “Okay, we will go.”

It is understood that Ai Xin's grandmother still has no knowledge of her grandson's death, fearing that she can't stand it, and her family will try their best to hide her.

"Ai Xin's family is particularly sincere, simple, and very strong. Such a big thing, they also repeatedly asked us to confirm in the grief, know that the child's function is used, can save people, they are assured." Wuhan University people Associate Professor Chen Zhiyuan from the hospital organ transplant doctor recalled.

Transplant doctor said

Four people because he was born again overnight

On July 10, a medical expert determined that Ai Xin had entered a state of brain death. Subsequently, a series of procedures for donation began, and the expert group conducted a comprehensive evaluation of his organ function. The results showed that Aixin's heart, liver and kidney were in line with the donation requirements. Four patients were identified as recipients through tissue organ matching.

Under the witness of the Red Cross staff, at 10:30 on the evening of July 11, Ai Xin was sent to the operating room. Before the donation, all the medical staff collectively paid tribute to Ai Xin.

After the collaboration of more than 30 medical staff from Wuhan University People's Hospital, at 8 o'clock in the morning yesterday, the organs donated by Ai Xin were transplanted to four patients: his heart was donated to a 52-year-old dilated cardiomyopathy. The patient; his liver, working again on a 39-year-old liver cancer patient; his kidneys revived two 40-year-old uremic patients.

"At last, I did not live up to the trust of Aijia and helped them complete their wish." Professor Zhou Jiangqiao said yesterday that this is the most intimate operation in his nearly 20 years of organ transplantation. "Ai's family is just an ordinary farmer, out of his son." Deep love, they volunteered to donate organs to help those in need, really amazing!"
