His name is Weiwei QI, a boy of only two and half years old. While other children of his age are enjoying their worry-free childhood, Weiwei is lying in the bed receiving Chemotherapy in Toronto Sick Kids Hospital. He is suffering from a rarely seen cancer: retinoblastoma (RB). He has undergone an enucleation surgery in China. The doctors in Beijing Tongren Hospital have referred them to Canada because Canada has the best ophthalmologists in the world and the treatment is much less costly than that in the U.S. However, all the money that his parents brought to Canada has been spent on the eyeball implantation surgery. A Systemic Chemotherapy is still needed to prevent the cancerous cells from spreading.

Weiwei QI, two years and a half, was admitted to Toronto Sick Kids Hospital for rare eye cancer retinoblastoma. Little Weiwei was referred by his Chinese surgeon for Sickkids’ good reputation and word class treatment in retinoblastoma.

3. Avoid colloquial wording. "run out of money" is spoken English.
Weiwei Qi, two and a half years old, who could have enjoyed his childhood as happily as any other children, had to receive chemotherapy at Toronto Sick Kids Hospital for his retinoblastoma, a rare type of eye cancer. He already has had an eye removal surgery in China, and the doctors at Tongren Hospital have recommended the family of three to come to Canada where the eye surgeons are considered the best in the world and the cost is cheaper than what they can get in US. The family, however, has been in financial difficulty since an eye implantation surgery and was left helpless for the succeeding chemotherapy that might prevent the tumors from developing.更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
