Heart Touching Story

A 13-year-old Chinese girl tried to commit suicide after she discovered a medical note in her mother's purse saying that her father was dying of liver cancer and had three months left to live she swallowed 200 sleeping pills. Why? because she wanted her family to donate her liver to her cancer-stricken father. Her mother returned home after visiting her husband husband in the hospital and found the front door locked she immediately climbed in through a back window and found two empty bottles of sleeping pills. "Mom, I'm sorry I couldn't stay with you any longer," read the note next to her. "Please give my liver to dad and save him after my death." This incident occurred in Jiangsu province in east China. She was taken to the same hospital as her father where she is in intensive care. Doctors say that even if she pulls through, she will need surgery for burns she suffered from an electric blanket on her bed when she lost consciousness, the China Daily newspaper said. That's pretty touching how much she loves her father Chinese people are pretty dedicated too bad she nearly killed herself for nothing =\.
