"leprosy is highly infectious, bacterial erosion causes malformation of human body, It was a "talk of hemp color change". In the high period of the 50s and 60s of last century, our country adopted closed isolation to build the village in the wild forests far away from the city. The village of leprosy has lived an isolated life since then.
after half a century of comprehensive prevention and treatment, and the emergence of combined therapy in the 80s of the last century, leprosy is no longer a public health problem. However, the problems such as later treatment, psychological counseling, education, employment, pension and funeral are far from being solved. At present, half of the 12 million people who recover from the country can not live normally. 245 of the 657 leprosy villages in the year were listed in the poverty stricken counties of the national 87 poverty alleviation program. In the former high epidemic area of leprosy Guangxi, there were tens of thousands of people in the past, 9009 leprosy rehabilitation and 30 leprosy villages, about 500 people living in the village, and half of the two stump.
with the death of the villagers, there are only one villager in the leprosy village of Debao, Xilin, Duan and Yizhou in Guangxi. When the village was built several years ago, the last few villagers died. In addition, Pubei, Tian, Fusui, Hezhou, Wuzhou, Hengxian, Guiping, Ningming, Longan and other counties leprosy village, there are only four to five villagers.
maybe, in another ten years, the group of leprosy villagers will disappear. How to make these elders and old people safely finish their last life is still a problem to be solved.
a single person was "locked" in the village of
to Debao County leprosy village, to go from the county town right to the mountain, the car bumped over the mountain road after more than 10 kilometers, finally came to the village, but see a lock iron gate, a number of iron fence fence to block the way. "Oh!" Wu Zehao of the Han Da Kang Fu Association shouted several times in the door, and a man came to open the "iron general".
"is she still there?" Wu Zehao asked. "Still!" The other side promised to disappear from the enclosure marked by "Tong Qi villager committee" and "no stranger outside the cave".
as the head of the Guangxi Office of the Han Da Kang Fu Association of Guangdong, Wu Zehao has been here for more than ten times. Every time he comes, he doesn't know whether he can see the villagers who sent him away last time. As he was carrying Huang Apo's food and special protective rubber shoes, he gasped and said, "every time you leave a village, he will hear the villagers say, this time it's seen, and next time you come, you don't know how to see it!"
Wu Zehao told the Beijing Youth Daily that as the people in the leprosy village basically "go", the old lady of the yellowish mother has become the only villager living in the village of the German village of leprosy. See the North Green newspaper reporters on the elderly locked in the village of the behavior, he explained: "as the village gradually 'walk' light, the land has been contracted by private land, the people are locked in the security. After all, Huang Apo could not go out. "
eight or nine meters from Huang's hut, hearing the "ouch" sound of moaning inside the house, Wu Zehao explained that Huang Apo had bronchial asthma and had always been as thick as "Wu bull's moon." With the gasp, Huang Apo, less than a meter in height, appeared in the hospital - her waist folded to 90 degrees, and she couldn't straighten up.
with other leprosy patients, the 75 year old Huang has no mutilation, a barren right leg ankle, with a two inch scar and pink color. I asked her that she had fallen on the ground and stumble.
Wu Zehao told the Beiqing Bao reporter that a few years ago, Luo Youming, a vice mayor of Xilin leprosy village, accidentally fell and fell to death when he planted corn on the hill. "The mountain here is very steep, often twenty or thirty degrees of slope, normal people should be careful, not to mention the old and disabled."
Beiqing Bao learned that every leprosy village can receive hundreds of yuan of living expenses from the civil affairs every month. In Guangdong, it can be five hundred or six hundred yuan, while in Guangxi, there are only three hundred and two hundred yuan plus some food. According to Huang Apo, she can have more than 200 yuan and 30 Jin rice per month, and vegetables should be planted by herself. In front of Huang's house, there was a half plowing soil. "Her back is the age and the work of the camel." Wu Zehao said.
conversation, there is a "cluck" sound of hens nest. The old man said he had three chickens and another egg was laid today.
except for three chickens, the remaining "living thing" is a yellow and white cat. At first glance, the man came up to the roof beam and issued a "whining" warning. Wu Zehao explained that he had never seen anyone but Huang Apo.
in the old man's heart, they are their own "companions", and live in one room with themselves: the old house is the old man's kitchen, wooden box and dry sundries on the left, and the two chicken house on the right.
"leprosy village" "the retreat of" the life of
yhuang after marriage dyeing, had three sons and one woman, after the illness, her husband and she divorced, she was "rushed" out, in the village for more than thirty years.
"when my son got married, he came to the village to celebrate." But her daughter-in-law later realized that she was taken to leprosy village. Her mother-in-law was a leprosy patient and soon divorced. After that, the son did not come again. " Huang Apo said. Now, she doesn't know whether she has grandchildren or grandchildren.
with the gradual departure of the villagers, she later began to partner with Yuan Changjiang, another old man in the village.
Wu Zehao pointed to the door of the house, and a red background movie star told the Beiqing newspaper reporter that when he posted the picture, he was also joking with Huang 's "wife and wife": "let the handsome handsome young girl accompany you." Now, old Yuan Changjiang and his wife are separated from Yin and Yang.
the "husband and wife of Huang" was quoted as the reason, because they did not "lead the certificate", only two people in the same disease, "the last to warm up."
Wu Zehao remembered that the year when Yuan Lao Bo left was in 2008. "In the early spring, I took the volunteers to see her, only to know that Yuan Lao Po had left. Huang was crying at that time. I was worried that she would not live long enough to live alone."
Wu Zehao and Huang Po discussed that if she was so lonely, she would not like to move to other villages, so that she could take care of each other. Huang Apo looked frightened and shook his head vigorously, saying that he was getting old. He was used to it and didn't want to go anywhere. Again, she said, "if you want to die, forget it, but you will not die!"
Wu Zehao said, in fact, after the joint therapy came out in 80s, leprosy has a specific drug, which is completely within the controllable range. Unfortunately, because of the lack of publicity, many people still stay in the misunderstanding, let the less and less leprosy rehabilitation, in addition to the disability, material shortage, but also suffer from spiritual torture.
less than four square meters of yellow lady's bedroom, on the left side of the box is a kerosene lamp, a little distance, a bottle of kerosene. Because there was no electricity, the roof was made of three glass reflectors, projecting some light in the room.
under the front window of the old man, there is an iron pipe, and the tap is turned off, and there is no water in it. The seven or eight pots and boxes on the side were full of yellowed water, which is the rain that the old man butted under the eaves.
Wu Zehao said that when there were many people in the village, there was water. But with the village left behind, the water supply and other facilities are broken, and few people are concerned about the solution. The village of leprosy finally went back to life. When
left the village of Debao leprosy, there was light rain in the sky. Huang Po sat on the small stool in the courtyard, beating her chest, and said she felt uncomfortable. She allowed her tears and saliva to flow across her face. Her mouth kept mumbling, "just coming, why do I have to leave?" Wu Zehao bowed his head and said, "this is always the case. I don't know whether to come or not." Do not come, my heart is missing, came to see her like this, and have a sense of guilt, feel that what did not help.
