今天在无意间看到了一张图片,让我震撼,让我感动。让我看到生命是如此的顽强,一线活着的力量是如此巨大。
        
       
        图片右侧孩子是Armas三岁的照片,一个可爱的孩子。但是他在母亲孕育他时,就经历了一次生与死的考验。
        在Samuel Armas只有14周时,孕检发现发现他患有先天的脊髓裂(spina bifida)。Samuel的父母勇敢的选择了积极治疗来面对,而没有象其他父母一样来选择流产。在Samuel Armas21 周大的时候。医生开刀为胎儿医治,没想到在手术的过程中,子宫竟然伸出了一只婴儿的小手,并且紧紧握住医生的大手!(就是图片左侧的图)。
        摄影师 Michael Clancy有这样的一段描述:
       
     As a doctor asked me what speed of film I was using, out of the corner of my eye I saw the uterus shake, but no one's hands were near it. It was shaking from within. Suddenly, an entire arm thrust out of the opening, then pulled back until just a little hand was showing. The doctor reached over and lifted the hand, which reacted and squeezed the doctor's finger. As if testing for strength, the doctor shook the tiny fist. Samuel held firm. I took the picture! Wow!
       
        手术很成功,1999年12月2日Samuel Armas出生。他勇敢的父母是这样说的(2003年9月25日):
 
     Today, Samuel is nearly four years old and has not had to endure the surgeries that are common for most children with spina bifida. He's walking with leg braces, is cognitively normal, and loves looking for bugs.

         人生有一个美好的开局确实让人兴奋不已,但是没有一个好的开局,并不意味着我们必须被整个生命历程所淘汰,勇敢面对,努力改变,不要轻易对自己说放弃。自己的生命自己努力,生命如此,人生亦如此。
