From the Straits Times:
A CHINESE policewoman is contributing to the country's massive earthquake relief effort in a very personal way - by breast-feeding eight babies.
A newspaper in Chengdu, the capital of quake-hit Sichuan province, yesterday devoted a special page to 29-year-old Jiang Xiaojuan, calling her a 'hero' while Web users hailed her as 'the most beautiful mother' in the world.
....
Ms Jiang brushed off a reporter's questions about her deed by saying: 'All mothers love children. Nursing a few babies is no big deal.'
Read the story. It's a lovely thing she's doing. What a woman!
H/T to Doug. He's not simply a barrel of laughs.
What a wonderful act of compassion (and true giving of one's own self). More power to her!
ReplyDeleteMs Jiang may not know it, but it is a very big deal.
ReplyDeleteThank you. This is wonderful. What a good woman!
ReplyDeleteThis is the most basic and beautiful act of love and kindness.
ReplyDeleteSome people just astonish me.
I will try to think of her when I'm cynical about the state of humanity.
Eight! That is amazing. And it makes me feel a little more optimistic about the world.
