Long-suffering father takes acceptance letter to daughter’s bedside, is delighted to see her eyelids flicker when he tells her about it
A student in central China who suffered from a heart infection and fell into a coma woke up when she was shown her college acceptance letter.
On July 11, Jiang Chennan, 18, from Henan province sought medical help for fever and chest tightness, just after taking the “gaokao”, or national college entrance examination, in June, the mainland media outlet Jiupai News reported.
Doctors diagnosed Jiang with fulminant myocarditis, the exact cause of which in her case remains unknown.
The uncommon condition is characterised by a sudden and severe inflammation of the heart, which often leads to death. Key triggers include viral infections, emotional stress and a poor lifestyle.
