November 09, 2023


She was suffering from cancer and snatched a glimmer of time from death, yet fearless. If cancer is an insurmountable mountain, then 8-year-old Little Marco not only climbed to the top of the mountain, but also planted flowers on the mountain. Having experienced illness at such a young age, he ultimately overcame the disease and allowed the flowering period of the flower of life to continue, reigniting its dazzling brilliance.

On June 30, 2013, Ma Ke, an 8-year-old girl from Sunying Township, Tongxu County, Henan Province, visited Zhonghai Traditional Chinese Medicine Oncology Hospital in Jiaozuo with her parents. Due to the invasion and metastasis of malignant lymphoma, the 8-year-old girl suffered from the pain of illness. Her slightly thin face was covered with fatigue, but she could still see her childlike innocence and curiosity towards the world at her age. In addition to the exhaustion on her face, what caught the attention was also Little Marco's wig. Over ten chemotherapy treatments in the past two years have caused Little Marco to lose all her hair.

Is Lymphoma Chemotherapy Useful?


Before coming here, Xiaoma Ke had been hospitalized at Henan Cancer Hospital for two years. Long term medication and more than ten times of chemotherapy have made this little life endure the pain and suffering that this age should not bear. Spending tens of thousands of yuan has also brought about a near collapse of previously affluent families. Parents can withstand all economic pressures, but they are helpless in dealing with the indiscriminate destruction of cancer on their daughters. Mothers can only secretly shed tears countless times to complain about the unfairness of fate. After every chemotherapy, Little Marco would feel nauseous, vomiting, and listless. However, the strong little Marco managed to survive, but her hair became less and less until she lost all her hair. Watching my daughter suffer and be strong again and again, the pain is in her body, but in her heart.


Let the temperature of life continue further


Dr. Zhang Zhonghai introduced that when she first arrived at Zhonghai Traditional Chinese Medicine Oncology Hospital in Jiaozuo, Little Ma Ke's parents were still worried, but they still held expectations and hope in despair. She was introduced by Li Zhenchuan (also known as Li Dan), an old comrade of Henan Cancer Hospital. Li Zhenchuan, like Xiao Ma Ke, is a malignant lymphoma. After one course of treatment in our hospital, she was cured. After that, she contacted Xiao Ma Ke and asked her to come and see me as soon as possible. Don't spend money and suffer in a big hospital anymore. They heard that Li Dan's illness had improved, so they came to see me.


Dr. Zhang has developed a special treatment plan based on Little Ma Ke's condition. My parents also pinned their hopes on Director Zhang's medicine. My mother cooked the medicine every day and coaxed Little Ma Ke to drink bitter Chinese medicine. Compared to the side effects of chemotherapy, traditional Chinese medicine may be a bit bitter, but seeing the child improve, I am very pleased. My parents tried their best to make Little Ma Ke drink medicine, and the strong child always cooperated. She hoped more than anyone to drive away cancer cells and actively cooperated with treatment every day. After two courses of treatment, the lump on Little Marco's body gradually disappeared, but what pleased her the most was that her hair had finally grown out of chemotherapy. She could also grow long hair and braid like other little girls, and no longer had to go out with a wig.

In September, under the guidance of her parents, Little Ma Ke lowered firecrackers and delivered the prepared banner to Dr. Zhang. Like her patient Li Dan, they also shared this good news with their own patient Wang Lin. Wang Lin, who finally came to Jiaozuo Zhonghai Traditional Chinese Medicine Oncology Hospital to seek treatment from Dr. Zhang, also recovered her health under Dr. Zhang's meticulous treatment. Learn to share and use love to extend the warmth of life.
