Attached please find my email communication with 田牛媽 and you will see how she turned down my offer two days ago. I can imagine how reluctant she must be when she finally decided to release her contact information. I am glad that she did and I was able to send out my check to her today. There are only few days left. Let us try our best.
Let us learn from 田牛媽. I would never forget her serenity to accept the things that cannot be changed, the courage to change the things she can, and her wisdom to know the difference.

看到你的回帖很感動,感動你真誠的祝福與幫助,我們現在選擇在國內治療,經濟上就不會遇到難題,很慶幸自己以往生活的儉樸,現在遇到這樣的變故還能支持,真的很感激你,再多的語言也難以表達我此刻感激的心情,我和牛牛謝謝你的好心,現在我們還不需要經濟上的捐助,也許漫長的治療會耗盡我們的積蓄,也許那時候我會向你求助,謝謝你,真誠的祝你和你的家人幸福健康!

田牛媽,
I am so sad to know that you are sick and will go back to China soon. If you need some help, please let me know. I would like to send you a check of $100 so that you could buy some gift for your son before you leave. Please be strong and take very good care of yourself. We will pray for you and wish you will be getting better soon.

Just want to you to know that, I spoke with her about an hour a ago. She had mentioned your name and expressed her gratitude toward all the people who is caring about her. Let's all do what we can do(words of encouragement, prayers, medical information, financial support, emotional support...) to help her.
