Daughter's Sacrifice: A Teen Dresses Up Like A Cow And Begs Everyday To Raise Her Family

The story of a 15-year-old daughter, Hao Dongdong, who wears a cow mask and begs anyone to ride on her for a fee, has been making its round online. It has become viral since it has touched many hearts and perhaps might change lives, too. 

For more than three months, she has been like this -- appearing quite desperate to raise money to make everyone in the family survive. Most importantly, she needs to support her 54-year-old father, Hao Xinli, who has been paralyzed over the past year after an accident.

Hao Dongdong explained, "My dad needs 5,000 Yuan (£500) each month for medical treatments. My brother and sister need to go to school. I have no identity card [for work] so I have to beg."

"If I can help cure my dad and feed my family, I don't mind what people say," she exclaimed with overflowing love and determination.

Instead of being a middle school student, she decided to stage a stunt to make a living and provide the medical needs to his father. This is how their everyday routine looks like.

According to Hefei Connect, since many referred to her as a fraud, she had to bring her father with her during the plight -- not wanting to receive ridicule and discouragement from many locals.

She has a plaque that reads, "I am willing to pretend to be a cow to let people ride me for 5 yuan."

And since her mother has abandoned them and still hasn't been seen since then, she has to be a mother, a father, and a sibling -- all at the same time. This seems to be really difficult but she is willing to do these sacrifices all because of love.

She is also her father's hands and feet -- helping him every step of the way. Now, how do we think she is able to endure all these at her age? Too much strength, young lady.

She does this every night -- making herself always ready in case her dad needs her or feels any discomfort.

Some netizens, who have been moved by merely seeing the photos and reading the story, expressed their feelings and thoughts online as well as shared their blessings, too.

She definitely needs help and support for the entire family. And this begins with a few clicks to share this post to your family and friends.
