One June 18, an 8 years old girl Yu Yan wrote the following on behave of her step-father on her medical record using the limited Chinese characters she learned during the past two years: "Voluntarily give-up medical treatment for Yu Yan". On the same day, this giving-up life girl left Cheng Du with her step-father and aunt. They went back to Shuangliu County, San Xing, Woyun village of Sichuan province.

Yesterday, this girl wore her "last colorful cloth" and quietly waited her dealth. She asked her father and aunt to allow her to do house work. "In the future, when you think of me, you will think of a well-behaved girl." When we learned this story, we went to her hometown and took her back to Cheng Du. Now, she has been admitted to Cheng Du Children Hopsital.

Yu Yan started with a miserable life.

She was born at about midnight November 30, 1996 (Chinese calendar 10/20). She was abandoned by her blood-parents on birth. According to Yu Shiyou, early morning around 4 a.m. he and his mother was on the road when they heard a weak voice like a little cat. They felt something wrong and decided to do a search. Finally they found a new-born in the darkness. Because she was wrapped in a thin cloth, the baby was very cold and was almost died. on her body, there was a note: "born at 12 a.m. 10/20".

......

About a month ago, her nose started bleeding and couldn't stop. When she had shots at village clinic, the niddle spot showed blood too. Her doctor suggested that she go to a major hospital in Cheng Du and she was quickly diagnosed as blood cancer.

Yu Shiyou immediately went to borrow money and decided to sell his house. However, there is nobody interested in it because it is too ugly.

Meanwhil, Yu Yan realized what happend. She told her dad: "Don't sell the house. Otherwise, where can you live?". Yu Shiyan replied, "My sweetheart, Don't worry, I can handle." About 10 thoudand yuan was almost gone totally. On June 18, Yu Yan signed "Voluntarily give-up medical treatment for Yu Yan" for her illiteracy step-father.

The poor girl raised her last request to her step-father and aunt: "Before I die, I would like to wear a new cloth and then take a picture. I want to die in a good manner so that daddy can see my picture when daddy thinks me in the future."
