homeless, helpless, no source of life...... Such a "three no" old people who take welfare home as their home has made an amazing move -- donating the remains to return the society. His name is Lu Shijie, 19 o'clock at 1 o'clock in the morning, he died in his sleep, all the year round 89 years old. According to his wish, his cornea and body were donated to cure and research. Lu Shijie is the first "three noes" elderly who applied to donate the body (cornea) since the establishment of the Ji'nan Social Welfare Institute in 1948.
Chen Jinlan, chief of the medical and Nursing Department of Ji'nan Social Welfare Institute, the nursing staff gave the old man a needle in the daytime. At night, the nursing staff found that the old man was in a coma and cried out. More than 1 in the morning, confirm that the old man is leaving the world. At 8:50 this morning, the staff of Qilu Hospital of the body receiving unit took the remains of the elderly from the social welfare homes. According to the hospital, the body of the elderly and the cornea hospital will be properly disposed of, as soon as possible to find the right beneficiary, as soon as possible to allow the elderly to return to social wishes to achieve.
last July 25th, reporters first met Lu Shijie in the Ji'nan welfare home. On the same day, he signed the body commitment letter. The old man told reporters at that time that he had suffered a lot when he was young. He used to be a soldier and pull a car, and he was a popular actor in the late 80s of last century. But because no child, no fixed work, the body is not good, can only live in a district in the Tianqiao District, under the help of the street staff, in March 2009, he lived in the Ji'nan welfare home.
according to Chen Jinlan, Chen Jinlan recalls that when the old man had just entered a welfare home, his body was weak and his clothes were dilapidated. When he was admitted to the hospital, he found that he had high blood pressure and a cerebral thrombosis, so the old man had been in bed all the time after admission. Under the careful care of the staff of the welfare home, the physical condition of the elderly is much better than that when they first admitted to hospital. "After living for a while, Lu suddenly proposed to donate his remains." Chen Jinlan said that he was very moved to hear this. He worked in the welfare home for more than 20 years, and it was the first time that the old man took the initiative to donate the remains.
Lu Shijie told reporters that he was well taken care of in the welfare home, and there was nothing to repay the party and return to the country, hoping that the young people would be able to live well after they changed their "parts".
at present, the medical units in Ji'nan which are eligible to receive donor remains are the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University and Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. The scientific research colleges and universities have Shandong Liming Polytechnic Vocational College. And the medical units who are eligible to receive cornea of donation are Mountain Tai and Shandong Eye Hospital. The staff of the organ donation office in Qilu Hospital told reporters that because of the old age, the organs can not be used for clinical treatment, but the cornea may also benefit the people who need light, but it is also necessary for the ophthalmologists to further judge whether they can be used. "The remains of senior citizens are usually used for teaching and research." The staff member said.
it is reported that since the enactment of the "Shandong province remains donation Ordinance" in 2003, 4598 volunteers have been registered and registered in the whole province, and 541 cases have been donated. There were 1492 registered volunteers in Ji'nan, and 150 cases were donated. Shandong Red Cross staff said that influenced by traditional culture and ideas, there are still some resistance to donation. According to the introduction, some elderly people from the Red Cross led the application form, but to go home with their children, after being opposed, the table is "no return", a lot of regrets.
