Some citizens who are physically fit but still beg on the streets and in public places should wake up and learn to overcome all obstacles. Perseverance and determination will bring success in the future, as in the case of a 37-year-old disabled Chinese man.
The South China Morning Post reported that Because of his determination, hard work and appreciation for education, Li Chuangye, who is only 80 centimeters tall, has struggled through life with cerebral palsy since the age of 1 until he became a doctor, despite being disabled and being born into a poor begging family.
Li Chuangye, now 37, is a doctor who runs a small private clinic in Yunnan Province, southwest China. The 37-year-old doctor was born in Henan Province and was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy, a condition that affects movement, balance and coordination, since the age of 1.
The doctor had an attempt to reverse his disability with surgery when he was 9 years old, but it failed and he was forced to become a beggar to support his family until he was 16, earning only 100 yuan, or about $14, a month. .
Because of his disability and later, the person who had cheated him was sorry and released him, the disabled young man Li Chung Ye was determined to go to school at the age of 16. Despite being the youngest to start school, Li Chung Ye, a young man who could barely read a newspaper, enrolled in a primary school and was determined to change his life through education. Despite being a late starter and having a disability, Li Chung Ye’s determination allowed him to succeed and progress in his studies until he had the opportunity to enter medical school.
Li Chung Ye claimed that during his high school years, kind-hearted classmates offered him help, but he rarely accepted it because, first, he felt embarrassed to rely on others. He said, “I know and believe that my classmates come to school, they just feel sorry for me, but they can’t come to help take care of me all the time.”
He shared that the reason he became a doctor like this is because he was born with a disease and his family was poor, so he dreamed of becoming a doctor to help others.
With such determination, Li Chung Yeh worked hard and entered medical school in 2013 at the age of 25. When he entered college, he volunteered to be the subject of a brain study for his classmates and promised to donate his body to medical research after his death.
After graduating in 2019 at the age of 31, Li Chung-ye had the opportunity to become a medical writer, but he gave up because he wanted to become a doctor and volunteered to work at a community clinic in Henan Province to obtain a medical license.
Despite his disability, Li Chung-ye has helped to engage in society by using TikTok to educate and post messages of encouragement to young people. In addition to his love for the medical profession, Li Chung-ye also loves mountaineering and has climbed six of China’s highest mountains. Li Chung-ye claimed that in 2016, he spent 17 days struggling to climb the summit of Huangshan Mountain, taking only 6 pairs of shoes, 12 socks, and 16 pairs of socks. This is a message to warn those who are desperate and take education lightly. In addition to this man, in Cambodia, there is also a blind Cambodian couple who are studying for a master’s degree in Australia.
In addition, there are many other Cambodian disabled people who have struggled with their own strength and sweat to earn a living and build a livelihood, while many people are discouraged and hopeless and are willing to beg on the streets.
