Forgive my hysteria. Here’s a thread documenting a regular person’s journey on Douban. In the past few weeks I’ve witnessed hundreds if not thousands of tragedies unfolding before my eyes. They’re not numbers. They’re just us but randomly sentenced to death. /1
Jan 23 “The city is locked down. I’m scared. Someone save us. Mom is getting sicker.”
Jan 26 “Mom got a call. It says she’s being transferred to Jin Yin Tan Hospital. I don’t know if it’s good or bad.”
(Note: Jin Yin Tan is Wigan’s hospital specialized in contagious diseases, also the main hospital for nCoV patients early on)
Jan 28 “Mom is gone. Don’t reply. Don’t like the status. I don’t want to respond.”
Jan 29 “Waiting for dad’s ct scan. Don’t know when. I squatted by the roadside. My life has never been as low and as cheap.

It’s like your heart is punctured by thousands of arrows. But I still need to guard him till the very end.”
Feb 2 “Sent dad into the hospital, like how he sent mom on 24th. It was raining heavily and I didn’t get to take another look at her.

It rained a bit today. Dad screamed from the hospital room and asked me to go away, don’t ever come back again.”
Feb 4 “I didn’t dream of mom. But I dreamt I kept looking for her. I kept asking ppl, have you seen my mom? Does she know my dad is sick? I’m looking for her.”
Yesterday 23:34 “Respiratory failure is such a cruel way to die.
Mom, take dad away pls. You can breathe freely in heaven. Don’t worry abt me. I told him today, pls remember how I look, what I sound like. U told me when I was a kid, you’d look for my birthmark if I’m lost...
...you’d recognize me if you see me again.”
20 hrs ago “Dad, I lost you too. You go find mom, and wait for me, we go home together.”
12 hrs ago “I’m so scared. I’m infected.”
A note: she’s still on douban and doesn’t want to be disturbed, thus the blurred parts. I cannot personally fact check the whole thing, but many ppl on douban witnessed this tragedy day by day. Saw some of the previous statuses weeks ago,but didn’t know the latest ones till today
P.s. there are so many other stories share the same path, and have been fact checked. I tend to believe this one. And all of these began from gov coverups.
Btw, before these status she’s just a regular girl on douban sharing her life, music and movies. Her entire family collapsed in a matter of days.
