Ms. Zhang Fei, who adopted three sick children, prepared for the surgery at the Armed Police Hospital.

According to a report by Zhang Xiaolei from Yangcheng Evening News and correspondent Xiao Jin: "Garbage-picking mother" Zhang Fei has added eight more children to her family, but none of them are completely healthy. On the 13th, good news came from Guangdong Armed Police Hospital: the hospital had already brought the three most seriously ill children to Guangzhou and decided to provide free surgery for these three children. Meanwhile, yesterday, the Guangdong Provincial Women's Federation also handed over 20,000 yuan to "garbage-picking mother" Zhang Fei, expressing their gratitude and support for her selfless actions.
For 32 years, Zhang Fei, who lives in Liusha Town, Puning City, successively took home 20 abandoned babies while scavenging, forming a special family. In 2006, after her story was reported by our newspaper, it drew attention. With the help of the government and kind-hearted people, Zhang Fei and the abandoned children moved into a new home larger than 100 square meters on Children's Day in June 2006.
Last month, the head of the Guangdong Public Welfare Society for Supporting Orphans, accompanied by doctors from the Guangdong Armed Police General Hospital, specially came from Guangzhou to give health check-ups to the abandoned infants. Subsequently, they brought back to Guangzhou a six-month-old cleft lip and palate baby girl, a three-year-old child named Xiaohao with congenital heart disease, and a one-year-old child with hydrocephalus. It is introduced that on the 14th, the three-year-old child with congenital heart disease, Xiaohao, will undergo surgery first.
Yesterday, Vice Chairwoman Qiu Ruiqing of the Guangdong Provincial Women's Federation went to the Armed Police Hospital, representing the Women's Federation, and handed over 20,000 yuan to "garbage-picking mother" Zhang Fei, expressing gratitude and support for her selfless actions.
