Mr. Lam and a hundred-year-old ironwood tree in the middle of a thousand years Born in the border area of ​​Huong Son district (Ha Tinh), Mr. Tran Ngoc Lam’s childhood (SN 1960, living in Khe Nam village, Son Kim commune 1) was attached to the forest. In 1990, when the State had a policy to mobilize people to receive forests for care and protection, Mr. Lam volunteered to receive more than 26 hectares of forests, including more than 20 hectares of natural forests and 6 hectares of planted forests. In order to protect the forest, he sought to restore the hill behind the house that was destroyed, badly damaged for many years. Mr. Lam recalled, the whole forest at that time was cut down, there were no trees with a circumference of more than 100cm. “Watching the trees grow up day by day, I am very happy. Protecting the forest is very difficult, because the forest is large, the people are few, while the people have no rights, so when they detect the loggers, they can only chase them out of their land. Mr. Tran Ngoc Lam During the period from 1990 to 1992, this forest was affected by the bluff exploitation, which affected the water source. In the summer, the wells in the village were dry at the bottom, some households dug more than 20m deep but still there was not a drop of water. Life is turned upside down, all activities rely on water from heaven and streams. Realizing that the harmful effects of deforestation are too serious, in addition to strictly protecting the existing forest tree area, Mr. Lam’s family borrowed a loan to plant acacia on the area of ​​production forest and enrich the natural forest area with tree species. Indigenous people such as green lim, doi, kien Kien… on average, he plants 3,000 trees a year. “After many years of eating and sleeping in the forest, looking back, the value of each tree is really precious,” said Mr. Lam, recalling the more than 30 years he spent in the forest. In order to admire the ancient ironwood trees, we were led into the forest by Mr. Lam and local ranger Doan Doanh Tuyen (Huong Son Ranger District). After climbing the pass, wading streams, the ironwood forest gradually opened up in front of our eyes, the higher we went, the dense forest, many big trees that 2 people couldn’t hug. As he walked, Mr. Lam pointed at the big tree stumps and read the name: “This tree is green ironwood, over a hundred years old, like this one two people can’t even hug; On the other side is the dot, the circumference is over 100cm. I have to go up here often, I’m very tired, but if I’m negligent, I’ll be the bad guy to cut it right away,” Lam said. The sixty-year-old man shared that, over the past 30 years, he has not had a single night of sleep because many loggers are trying to steal wood to sell. He was even threatened with death by a logger. Forest protection is not easy, eat the forest, sleep in the forest. There were times when family life was difficult, not eating enough, some people suggested that he cut down some wood to sell, but he still decided to keep the green ironwood forest, so that today the forest will pay back. Thank you for the old man with ancient iron roots over a hundred years old. Lam’s ironwood forest is like a “green lung” to develop ecosystems, prevent erosion, and prevent floods.

Ms. Lai Thi Tuyen, Thuong’s mother emotionally shared: “I am really overjoyed. Since the day he was in an accident, the family is not sure how to manage the money to treat him. There was nothing worth selling in the house. I can only thank the Justice Newspaper and the brothers and sisters for helping my family in this tribulation ”.

Currently, the wound infection on the leg of Thuong has recovered significantly, no longer aching pain as before.

Representatives of the Justice newspaper and the generals donated money to support Thuong baby

Doctor Luu Duc Tho – Head of Department of Surgery and Injury at Thanh Hoa Children’s Hospital said: “After a period of active treatment, the wound has progressed quite well. Over the next 2 weeks, we will proceed to remove the nail and reconnect the patient. After that, when the wound is stable, I will continue to receive Rehabilitation treatment to minimize the movement sequelae in the future ”.

As reported by the Justice newspaper, Le Thi Thuong had a surgical wound infection when treating a broken leg after an accident at the district hospital.

Immediately after the accident, Thuong broke 2 lower legs and was operated on by the district doctors at the hospital. After stabilizing, Thuong was discharged from the hospital. However, just a short time after that, Thuong’s leg showed unusual signs such as soreness, numbness and difficulty moving. The family quickly took Thuong to the district hospital for inspection and was urgently transferred to Thanh Hoa Children’s Hospital because the infection was too severe.

Unable to hide her feelings, Ms. Tuyen choked out, “My family has been in difficult situations for a long time, my husband is disabled so he cannot do anything. The whole family only looks at a few stir fries, so we always worry about eating each meal. On February 27, Thuong he said he went to the district to pick up goods and sell online to earn extra income for his family. But it was not long before someone reported that he had an emergency hospitalization. The mother and daughter have been in the hospital since that day until now and do not know when. I just hope to quickly heal my leg, so that the daughter does not have to suffer any more “.

Ms. Tuyen’s family belongs to the poor local household, most of the family’s living expenses only rely on the husband’s disability allowance of nearly 400,000 VND / month. Ms. Tuyen, in poor health, could not do anything. She was around her house with a few rice fields just hoping to have enough rice to eat.

Thuong is the only child of the family, so besides going to school, when she has free time, Thuong stays at home to help her parents with housework and farming, in addition to collecting more goods to sell online to earn more. some cost help with parents. Thuong was rarely allowed to hang out with his friends. I thought that life was just passing by, even though there were too many difficulties, but she and her husband also tried to save for Thuong to study, as friends.

Since the day he was injured in a traffic accident, Tuyen’s family fell into a stalemate. Because the day to take care of the child in the hospital, money is not earned, but the cost of treatment and daily living is expensive. Including the time taken to hospital when having a traffic accident at the district hospital up to now while being treated at Thanh Hoa Children’s Hospital, Thuong and her mother have been in hospital for more than 1 month and still have not. know when to be back home.

Currently, patients taking both medication and negative pressure suction (VAC) with the cost of smoking each time are expected to be 5 million and usually must be done once a week. Currently, the Health Insurance side has not paid for this service.
