Posted Oct 11, 2009 by Lindsay Britney
A Chinese man whose legs and the upper body were almost clapped together due to the dextroscoliosis had a tough life far away his hometown. Accounts from a witness:
Strolling on the Heshan Pedestrian Street [at Yiyang, Hunan Province], I ran across a scoliosis man whose spine was highly deformed and extremely curved. His motion was inconvenient in the extreme. When he stood up, his Cobb angle was almost zero (should be called zero). This was really the first time for me to see a man with such extent one’s spine deformed and curved.
After giving him several Yuan, I asked what happened to him. He said he was 42 years old and from Yuping, Guizhou Province. During his 20’s, the rheumatoids distorted his body joint to the present appearance. He revealed he had a child, as as well as his parents, in the hometown. He introduced that he could earn 30-60 Yuan [through begging] every day. He spent 10-20 Yuan on food a day and 10 Yuan a night in sleeping in the motel. [Within the surplus], he remitted 300+ Yuan to his family.
Good luck to him!
