Most people could
forgive Guo Shijun if he gave up on his dream of a university education: because of his full time commitments
to caring for his paralysed father and sick mother, he is spread incredibly
thin.
but it is possible
Shijun wouldn't forgive himself, as instead of giving up his studies, he
persuaded university officials to let his father to stay in his dorm for the
full term, after he was paralysed in a building accident.
Shijun still managed
to get a place at a top university, and, impressed with his dedication in the
face of insurmountable odds, they let him bring his father to university with
him to lighten his load.
Shijun, now 20, came
from a poor family and had a tough childhood, as his mother was left mentally
disabled when he was younger following a battle with meningitis.
She was cared for
during his formative years by him and his father, and despite this responsibility,
he still managed to get top grades at school.
His already tough
workload got worse when his father was injured after falling 15 meters off of a
bridge he was working on in the city of Liuan in the Anhui province in the
centre of China, becoming paralysed from the waist down.
Shijun's grandparents
took over care duties for his mother, but they couldn't look after his father
as well, so he rented a small room near his university dormitory and moved his
father in, so that he didn't have to keep rushing to check up on him between
lessons and during lunch
To keep up his
studies he paid for university by borrowing money from friends and
relatives until he finished. These costs, amount to £2000 a year for tuition
alone, not accounting for food, bills and the cost of care for his
parents.
However, despite the
huge handicap to his studies, he managed to earn a scholarship to help him on
his way.
Talking about his
experiences, Shijun said: 'I can't say life is easy but the only way out of the
problem is through hard work so I'm not complaining.
'I think once I
graduate things will get much better.'
