Little Girl Does Her Best To Take Care Of Her Paralyzed Father After Her Mother Left Them
When tragedy strikes, family members need to stick together. But after Tian Haicheng from China got paralyzed in a car crash, his wife of 7 years abandoned him. Luckily, not everyone turned from him.
According to Chinese media, Tian was left paralyzed from the chest down after a taxi he took crashed into a ditch in March 2016. His wife left just two months later, taking their eldest on with her. “She told me on the day that she was going to stay in her mother’s home for a few days. But she never returned, and she took our son with her,” Tian said. Only his little girl, Jia Jia, stayed with him. And she’s been taking complete care of him ever since.
Jia Jia gets up every day at 6 am and massages her father’s muscles for half an hour. Before the little caretaker goes to school, she also brushes his teeth and washes his face.
While she’s out studying, her elderly grandparents, both farmers, look after her father. After she comes back, Jia Jia feeds her single parent his dinner and helps him move around the house using a DIY mobility device.
Jia Jia even shaves her father’s beard. “At the beginning, I didn’t know how to shave, and I cut dad’s face, and it bled,” she said. “But dad said it wasn’t painful. Now, I’m very good at shaving his beard. My grandmother says I shave it very clean.”
When asked about her mother, Jia Jia said she doesn’t miss her at all because “she doesn’t look after dad.” She misses her older brother, though. “I used to be very close to him.”
To document his daughter’s selfless work, the family man has set up an account on China’s live-streaming app Kuaishou. As of this article, as many as 480,000 people are following their daily struggles.

And taking the older son with her... I hope when her time comes, the son will turn his back on her just as she did on her husband and little girl.

Is there a crowdfunding campaign for the little family? I'd gladly donate for them.

That's just unbelievably beautiful and tragic in equal measure. Good luck to both of them and a big f**k you to the mother
