今年3月26日，孔兰忽然感觉身体不适，起初家人以为是普通的感冒引发的喉咙肿痛，可她的身体状况却一天比一天糟糕，孔兰的父母满心焦急，带着她来到了县里的医院就诊。然而，孔兰的病情持续加重，4月初不得不入院接受治疗。
住院之后，医护人员全力以赴开展救治。4月7日，孔兰出现心跳骤停，病情瞬间陷入危急。悲痛之际，家人依旧没有放弃，希望抓住每一丝生机。

孔兰一家是低保家庭，收入仅够维持基本温饱。女儿高额的治疗费用，让本就拮据的家庭雪上加霜。孔兰的父母四处奔走，筹措医药费。街坊邻里、热心群众得知孔兰的遭遇后，纷纷伸出援手，一笔笔爱心捐款，给悲伤中的家人带去了安慰和走下去的勇气。
然而，历经五十多天的抢救，医护人员和家人的努力终究没有换来奇迹，孔兰鲜活的生命再也无法挽回。面对无法改变的结局，孔兰的父母反复思量，最终在5月22日做出了一个艰难却又坚决的决定：捐献女儿可用的器官，让女儿的生命以另一种方式继续留在人间。
The family, which relies on subsistence allowances, struggled with the high cost of treatment and received support from neighbors and other donors. Despite more than 50 days of treatment, she could not be saved. On May 22, her parents made the difficult decision to donate her usable organs and corneas.
