When rescuers found her,she was dead,a death caused by her falling house in the earthquake.Among the debris,rescuers could see her posture:kneeling with two arms supporting her body as if crawling.But looked strange because the heavy concrete slabs twisted her body.when rescuers cleared the debris around her,they found under her body~~~~~a baby,still alive,wrapped in small quilt of red color with yellow flowers.the baby is about three or four months old.Because her mom's protection he was safe and sound.The baby was sleeping when rescued,Everyone felt warm-hearted to see this.When doctors opened his quilt for a check-up,they found a cellphone inside the quilt.On the cellphone screen was a text message:
My dear baby,if you can survive,remember that I love you!
it really moved me,this happened in the rescue action of Wencuan earthquake in China.
Love is so great!

What a moving story. I hope they found a way to preserve the text message, or take a picture o the phone, or something, for the baby to have when she grows up.

Oh my gosh...that story just moved me to tears. It's stories like these that makes me believe that there are good parents out there. There are mothers out there who will protect their little one's with their own rather than just throw them away in the nearest river or trash.
