A poignant photograph of an elderly Chinese couple, married for nearly seventy years, has captured hearts worldwide. The image shows them holding hands in the intensive care unit, evoking deep emotions among millions.
The touching moment was shared by Wang Yanfang, the head nurse at the intensive care unit of Yinzhou Hospital in Zhejiang Province, eastern China.
Feng Ming, 92, was admitted to the ICU due to heart failure. Unfortunately, his health worsened, leading to multiple organ failures and a lung infection. He became unable to communicate and was placed on life support.
Understanding that time was running out, his family decided to discontinue treatment and bring him home. However, Feng had one last wish: to see his beloved wife, Zhang Ping, who is 95 years old and recovering from a fractured femur in a different part of the hospital.
Wang, the head nurse, explained: “Typically, visiting hours in the ICU are from 3:00 PM to 3:30 PM, but given Feng’s critical condition, we couldn’t wait”. She arranged for the couple to meet, fearing it could be their final goodbye.
With Wang’s assistance, Zhang was transported on a stretcher from the 14th floor to the ICU on the third floor. When they finally reunited, Zhang took Feng’s hand and reassured him in their native dialect, saying: “Don’t worry about me. I’ll take care of myself”.
Feng was moved to tears by her words and, just hours later, he passed away peacefully at home. Reflecting on the emotional encounter, Wang expressed her gratitude for being able to facilitate this last meeting, emphasizing its significance.
This heart-wrenching story serves as a reminder of the enduring love that Feng and Zhang shared through their many years together, exemplifying true love even in their final moments.
I Discovered My Husband Claims I’m His Child’s Caretaker Whom He Keeps Employed Due to Pity — I Enacted My Retribution Shortly Afterwards
When Megan visited her husband’s office with his favorite lunch to surprise him, she learned a startling secret from his receptionist. Megan found out that her husband had been telling everyone she’s merely his kid’s nanny, allowing him to act freely at work.
Recently, I discovered that my husband has been telling everyone that I am merely his child’s nanny, one he keeps out of pity.
What?
It was an ordinary day, and I decided to surprise my husband with lunch from his favorite fast food place. We had both been working long hours lately and had little time to connect.
This was my first visit to Ben’s new office, and I was excited about surprising him.
“Hi, honey,” he said, answering his phone as I parked the car. “I’m just on a call; I’ll be done soon.”
I didn’t really want to talk to him; I just wanted to make sure he was there.
I got out of the car, grabbed the takeout bag, feeling a thrill. When Ben and I were first married, we often surprised each other at work or met up spontaneously.
It was the spark that kept our marriage alive.
Ben’s office was sleek and modern. I walked in, and a friendly receptionist greeted me with a bright smile.
“Good afternoon!” she said. “You’re Mr. Link’s nanny, right? Is something wrong with the kids? Should I buzz him, or do you want to go straight up?”
I nearly dropped the bag of food.
“Excuse me?” I asked, my heart racing.
The receptionist looked puzzled, as if unsure if she’d misspoken or if I hadn’t heard her right.
“Aren’t you Mr. Link’s nanny?” she repeated, her smile fading.
I took a deep breath, trying to process her words.
“No, I’m not the nanny,” I said. “I’m his wife, Mrs. Megan Link.”
Her eyes widened in shock, and she quickly looked around to ensure no one else was listening.
“Oh my God,” she said. “I am so sorry! I had no idea! Please, come with me.”
