As we waited at the hospital, our joy quickly turned to grief when the attending physician announced that he could detect no signs of life in Tien-Tien. There was no breathing, no heartbeat, so he finally declared the baby dead.
Ajiang decide to lay the body next to the Taizi River. To outsiders, this might be strange: to us, a Chinese family with almost no money or resources, the prospect of encouraging the baby’s spirit slip away to a better world in a beautiful setting made a great deal of sense. We planned to return later to bury Tien-Tien’s remains and pay honour to her.
Ajiang wrapped his child in a red fl oral quilt and set off for the river. He gently laid his baby in a patch of grass along the bank of the river.
A week later, while I was walking home from work, I overheard several women talking about one of her friends. They said their friend heard a baby crying and the sound came from a patch of grass along the river bank. They further explained that the baby had been placed in a local orphanage.
Something inside me said it must have been Tien-Tien. Without waiting any longer, I ran to the orphanage. In the room I saw Tien-Tien in a crib covered in dirt but very much alive.
