Strong and optimistic, facing the challenges of fate
Comrade Lin Shuangying fell ill at the age of 4 , he often fell when walking, and he sought medical treatment everywhere and was diagnosed with "progressive muscular dystrophy". For a little girl who is full of longing for the future, this is like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. This is an incurable disease considered by Western medicine to be more terrifying than cancer, with an incidence rate of only one in 300,000. This disease damages the internal organs and spreads to the limbs. It first makes the muscles of the whole body atrophy and becomes weak, and then controls the internal organs. Finally, the patient will die of respiratory failure. Children with this disease usually have only a few years from onset, paralysis, and death. But this "usually" did not happen to her, which cannot but be said to be a miracle. Rather than saying it is a miracle, it is better to say it is the result of her fighting against fate, fighting against the disease, and actively cooperating with the treatment. She has always faced her disability head on, never felt inferior, and has always remained strong and confident.
When she reached school age, she did not choose to enter a school for the disabled, but instead entered an ordinary school. This is looking for trouble for herself, but she feels that only by putting herself on the same starting line as healthy children, she will not find reasons to retreat, and she can also feel more happiness. From elementary school to high school, her academic performance has always been among the best in her class, and she has initially shown her talent in writing. She has won the first prize in the Guangzhou Essay Competition, the Guangdong Provincial Essay Competition, and the Commendation Award. After graduating from high school, she lost the opportunity to enter university due to physical reasons. However, she did not give up studying, but began a difficult self-study process. After four winters and summers, she finally obtained her college diploma in 1997 after enduring hardships many times greater than those of ordinary people. Obsessed with literature, she also participated in a one-year poetry correspondence course offered by the Poetry Publishing House.
Comrade Lin Shuangying is a girl with a strong desire for knowledge and full of modern consciousness. When computers were still an unattainable symbol of high technology for ordinary home users, she used royalties to buy back a 586 computer, mastered computer knowledge, and later upgraded it to a Ben III and laptop computer.
When the Internet age first emerged, she went online and studied Internet knowledge assiduously. Not only did she create a personal website, she also participated in a web page production competition organized by the Guangzhou Disabled Persons' Federation on behalf of disabled people in Zengcheng City and won fourth place. . She also expanded her writing field to the Internet and became a columnist for several well-known websites in just one year.
During this period, Comrade Lin Shuangying also started her writing career. The writing skills that she has worked hard on for several years have brought her another income. Many newspapers and magazines have asked her to write articles. She can easily support herself just by writing articles and translating. With her high income, she did not change her simple and frugal living habits. What makes her most proud is that she has become a taxpayer. Because she never told the editor that she was disabled, newspapers and periodicals would withhold personal income tax when there was a large amount of royalties. The hard work made her physical condition worse and worse, and she was a workaholic who already had health problems. Teaching students takes an average of five or six hours a day, and even up to twelve or three hours during holidays. Writing also consumes a lot of her energy and time every day, and there are no days off for these two tasks. According to incomplete statistics, her workload in a year is nearly twice that of ordinary workers. Whether she is teaching students or writing, she has to support her body while working, so she must wear a girdle. The pile of worn girdle is enough to prove her hard work. She could only sleep four or five hours a day. She couldn't bear to sleep and felt that it was a waste of life. She wants to emit the greatest light and heat in her limited life.
The work directly threatened her life, and her parents advised her not to work too hard. But at this time, she no longer worked to support herself. Money was no longer the motivation for her work. Her motivation for work came from a strong sense of social responsibility. "If you don't teach students, what will happen to the students who are looking forward to letting her teach? If you don't write, what will happen to the readers who are used to reading her columns?"
In order to work longer, she gave up Although I have done some writing that can bring me high royalties, I always insist on writing columns for "Zengcheng Daily".
Selfless dedication, willing to be a red candle to illuminate others
Based on her own circumstances, Comrade Lin Shuangying chose to be a full-time tutor. She has a very strong professionalism and charming personality, and her students regard her as a close friend. Soon, the tutor in a wheelchair became famous, and students who came to her for tutoring had to wait in line. Not only is it no problem to support herself, she has also become an enviable "high-paying class". In the process of tutoring, she always puts educating people first, and has reduced or exempted tuition fees for some students from poor families, totaling more than 6,000 yuan.
In addition to imparting knowledge, she pays more attention to teaching students the principles of life and guiding them to follow the right path and be good people through precepts and deeds. Over the past few years, she has tutored more than a hundred students, and more than a dozen of them have been admitted to key universities at home and abroad, including Guangdong University of Foreign Studies, University of Toronto in Canada, etc. Some students who were originally tired of studying or even had bad behaviors have undergone great changes under her guidance.
