We have previously reported that Lu ZiKuan, an 11 year old boy from Henan Province, began a three-month 'overeating' to gain weight in order to donate bone marrow and hematopoietic stem cells to his father. Now, Lu ZiKuan's weight finally met the doctor's requirements. On September 9 and 10, he donated bone marrow and hematopoietic stem cells to his father respectively. The wish to save my father, which had been waiting for half a year, was finally realized.
'I'll make myself fat!'
Lu yanheng, Lu ZiKuan's father, unfortunately suffered from leukemia seven years ago. Over the past few years, Lu yanheng has been maintained by drugs, but since August last year, Lu yanheng's health has deteriorated. His condition can not be alleviated by taking drugs. He can only be maintained by blood transfusion. The doctor suggested that bone marrow transplantation be carried out as soon as possible. After inspection, only Lu ZiKuan and Lu yanheng were successfully matched in the whole family.

In the face of such a result, Lu yanheng resolutely disagreed and kept saying that he would give up treatment. " The child's life has just begun. We can't drag him down! "
But Lu ZiKuan's attitude was just the opposite of his father's. He was very firm from the beginning. When he heard that he had to reach a certain standard to be a donor, he patted his chest and said, 'I will make myself fat!'
At that time, Lu ZiKuan's weight was only 60 kg, which was at least 30 kg higher than the requirement of bone marrow donation. So from March this year, Lu ZiKuan 'fattened and saved his father' to prepare for bone marrow transplantation.
-A large pot of braised meat, fried eggs and a large glass of milk are the amount of a meal. It's a wide way to eat in a big mouth. I'm often full. I have to put a few more mouthfuls of meat in order to gain weight quickly.

Eat three meals a day until you have a bloated stomach, and eat another bowl of instant noodles before going to bed. Eating too hard, he put down his chopsticks for a while & hellip& hellip;' I can't count a few meals every day. As long as I feel I can eat them, I'll eat them. " When Lu ZiKuan's mother saw that her son was suffering from eating, she was also sad, but there was nothing she could do.
Lu ZiKuan's motivation for "overeating" every day is to weigh in the morning. Every kilogram or two of weight gain is one step closer to saving his father.
His father Lu yanheng's microblog recorded the process of his son's getting fat - his weight grew so that he couldn't wear clothes, and then the meat at the root of his thigh was worn out when he walked.
Finally, the weight of the road width met the requirements. When Lu ZiKuan was hospitalized waiting for surgery, the family members of the patients in the corridor of the hematological ward would see him and say, 'this donor is really in good shape'.

3 months finally eat more than 30 pounds of fat! The 11-year-old boy was very excited: he could save his father soon
In July 2019, it was reported that the way of "fattening and saving the father" was widely searched, and the reading volume of relevant topics was as high as 9.85 million times. In order to reach the required weight, the teenager under the age of 11 donated hematopoietic stem cells to his father. Over the past three months, he drank and ate too much, and his weight soared from more than 60 kg to nearly 100 kg. According to the latest interview with Ziniu news reporter of Yangtze Evening News, Lu ZiKuan's weight has basically met the requirements of surgery. He has accompanied his father Lu yanheng from his hometown in Henan to Beijing for treatment.
However, Lu yanheng's examinations should last until August 4, and then the operation can be carried out according to the results of various indicators. At present, Lu ZiKuan is in good health and is very happy about the upcoming operation. " The child wants me to recover as soon as possible and is eager to have a healthy father. " Lu yanheng said.
More than seven years ago, he suddenly suffered from a 'strange disease'
When Lu yanheng, Lu ZiKuan's father, was contacted by Ziniu news reporter of Yangzi Evening News on the afternoon of July 25, he was queuing up in a hospital in Beijing for treatment. " When the child's weight reached the standard, we hurried over. After all, there were a lot of tests. It is preliminarily estimated that there will be no results until August 4. " Lu yanheng felt very weak when he spoke. He admitted that his physical condition is not very good now. However, Lu yanheng was also filled with emotion when he mentioned what had happened in the past.
It turned out that Lu yanheng, 34, was from Huixian City, Henan Province. He married in 2008 and gave birth to his son Lu ZiKuan at the end of the year. In early 2011, the couple welcomed a pair of twins. Immersed in joy, accidents came one after another. In May that year, Lu yanheng's brother and brother-in-law were killed in a car accident. The accident hit Lu yanheng especially hard. He ran around for more than half a year to arrange for his relatives.
At the end of 2011, Lu yanheng suddenly found that his body was not working. He had a fever and general weakness, and a series of symptoms came out. " From the end of that year to the beginning of 2012, I went to Beijing for an examination. The doctor said it was myelodysplastic syndrome. At that time, I suggested bone marrow transplantation. " But Lu yanheng thought about it and decided to treat conservatively first. In this way, he kept taking medicine in hospital and ran back and forth to Beijing. He went back and forth countless times in more than seven years.
The condition worsened and the doctor said it was necessary to have a 'bone marrow transplant'
Seven years have passed. In these seven years, Lu yanheng has endured it and hopes that one day his condition will suddenly ease. But the reality is cruel. At the end of July 2018, Lu yanheng's condition suddenly deteriorated. " At that time, lying at home, I felt that the whole person was dying and was going into shock, so I hurried to be hospitalized. " Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that after examination, the doctor suggested that bone marrow transplantation was necessary, but at that time, Lu yanheng still had a fantasy and took the medicine for five or six months, but it had almost no effect.
At the beginning of this year, Lu yanheng, who was suffering from illness, finally decided to have a bone marrow transplant. " He and his family have made matching, but in the end, only his son, Lu ZiKuan, succeeded in matching. " Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that he was very tangled at that time. " The child is still young. What if he hurts his body by doing a transplant? "
Eat five or six meals a day,
The child decided to 'fatten up and save his father'
It was learned from the doctor that donating hematopoietic stem cells would not have much impact on the body. In March this year, Lu yanheng weighed and repeatedly agreed to the operation, but new problems emerged again. At that time, the weight of Lu ZiKuan was only more than 60 kg, but the requirements for bone marrow transplantation were relatively strict, and the weight of donors was about 100 kg.
"The child is very sensible. Knowing that his weight can't meet the requirements, he says he has to eat hard. If he gets fat, he can save his father." Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that from late March, Lu ZiKuan began to overeat and eat five or six meals a day at most. " Braised meat, eggs, milk, steamed bread, what can grow meat, what to eat. " What makes Lu yanheng particularly worried is that because of the irregular diet, the child's gastrointestinal function has been greatly affected. " Now I can't eat it a few months ago. I still have stomachache and diarrhea from time to time. It's hard to eat too much. "
In this way, in more than three months, the road was wide and gained more than 30 kilograms. " Now it's about 96 kg, which has basically met the requirements of transplantation. "
Thank you for your donation. I owe too much to my children
Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that the most in his heart since this time is thanks.
"First, I thank my child for taking care of me and studying hard over the years. I owe him too much." Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that Lu ZiKuan was very sensible since he was a child. His father was ill for a long time, and his family was poor. He never mentioned buying toys and new clothes. He hardly asked his parents for pocket money. Not only that, Lu ZiKuan has always been a 'little adult' at home. He doesn't mention doing housework, but also undertakes the responsibility of carrying rice and water to his father. " I'm not in good health. I don't have time to take care of my children, but he never let me worry about his study. His grades are always stable in the top five. He is still the monitor in the school. " Lu yanheng told the Ziniu news reporter that his family lived on the edge of the mountain. In the past, when he was healthy, he often took his children to play in the mountains. That was the happiest time for children. " I really want to get better early and spend more time with my children. It's really not easy for him. "
Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that he had to thank the kind people in society for coming to Beijing for surgery this time. " Thank everyone for paying attention to Lu ZiKuan and my condition. So far, about 900000 donations have been made, and the initial operation cost is enough. "
Now there are only two 'biggest wishes' in my heart
Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that at present, the child accompanied him to Beijing and has lived near the hospital. After a series of preparatory work and physical examination, the doctor should be able to arrange the operation.
"At present, I have two biggest wishes. One is to have a smooth operation." Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that he had also learned about his condition from various channels. He felt that this disease could not be estimated. He didn't know how much it would cost in the end. " From two aspects, if the operation is very troublesome, more treatment costs may need to be invested next; But if the operation is particularly successful, 900000 is enough. If I am in good health, I am willing to donate it to other people who are in urgent need of money for treatment. "
"Another wish is that the child can take a good rest for a period of time after the transplant operation, and then exercise to lose weight." Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that what he cares about most right now is his children. " A few months of overeating and drinking have a great impact on the child's health. What I hope most now is that the child can return to normal life and normal child's weight. At the same time, the operation is smooth and will not affect the next school. "
Before the operation, the child was very excited and hoped to help his father as soon as possible
During the interview, the purple cow news reporter also heard the voice of the child calling his father on the other end of the phone, with a sense of joy. " The operation is coming soon. The child is not nervous at all and is very excited. " Lu yanheng said that when he first came to Beijing, he was acclimatized. Lu ZiKuan had diarrhea for two days. At that time, he was very worried, but now he has recovered.
Lu yanheng told Ziniu news that after coming to Beijing, Lu ZiKuan kept asking him when he could have an operation. The child was very simple and wanted him to recover as soon as possible. " This is also the reason why the child is excited, because he hopes to have a healthy father who can play with him. " Speaking of this, Lu yanheng's mood fluctuates greatly. After all, in his opinion, many people have paid too much for his treatment. " I hope I can get better. I can't lose a lot of things, especially my family. " Lu yanheng said.
