A young mother was found bending down in the debris and dirt, dead without any breath. In her arms she held a 3 to 4 month old baby girl, alive and still nursing her mother. She gave her life protecting her baby from the falling roof. When the baby was taken away from her mother’s dead body, the baby girl started to cry as she was separated from her mother. The young mother nursed her baby till her last breath. It’s obvious that she did this intending to keep her baby alive. Tears ran down the faces of everyone at the scene.

The moment that she dug out her daughter’s dead cold body, she fainted and fell down. “ I will put her favorite white T-shirt on her”, she said.“We named her YueXing (moon and stars) and hoped her life will be shining like moon and stars.” Tears flooded her face in deep sorrow…...
