四川大地震:母亲临死前最后的哺乳

The great love of a young mum: Leaving the best for her baby before her death in the terrible quake in China, SiChuan.



This was what the rescuers saw when searching through the rubble near DuJianYan riverside:

When the young mother and her baby were discovered, the mum had curled up in a protective position cushioning her three/four month old baby from the fallen rubble. The baby was still suckling the mother's nipple; the mum had left the best that she had for the child to survive before she passed on. The young mum had also left a final message in her mobile phone for her child:

"Dear precious, if you ever live, remember that I love you".

Such sight had brought much tears to many witnesses.
