Father donates organs of girl who died in Chinese school after tripping over a student
The child was nine years old.
After a girl accidentally died at a school in China, her father made the decision to donate his nine-year-old girl's organs.
The incident occurred in a corridor of a school located in Quizhou, southern China, when he accidentally stumbled, colliding with another student. This was reported by the newspaper "South China Morning Post".
Although the incident occurred three months ago, it was not until a week ago that Huang Qin, the girl's father, assured on social networks that the school apologized for what happened.
The girl's parent said the accident happened when the students were running in a disorderly manner, as children normally do to attend their physical education class. When her daughter collided with a classmate and then hit a wall, immediately passing out.
Tongtong, as the girl was known, lost consciousness at the time of the crash and according to the tragedy report, when she recovered, her teacher asked her if she felt bad, and she denied it by shaking her head.
"My daughter was too young to understand the seriousness of her injury," said the girl's mother.
It was learned that the father took his daughter to the nearest hospital a few hours after the injury occurred, because he noticed that the girl had a very large "lump" in her ear.
"Doctors said he had blood on his brain and nine days later, he died from brain damage," Qin reported.
Finally, Huang Qin has made the noble decision to donate some of his Tongtong's organs, including his heart, kidneys, and corneas.
"I do this not to be considered a hero, but to let my daughter's heart continue to beat," Huang said on social media.
"I am relieved that I was able to help other people and thus save their lives. I think my daughter supports my decision," he added.
