Medical cost forces parents to consider giving up child

Li Mingjin, 38, has worked as miner in Shanxi province for 19 years. He came to Beijing for treatment with his wife and two daughters after being diagnosed with lung cancer last November. Spending all his savings in less than a month, Li had to receive experimental therapy for free. The struggling family stayed in a to-be-demolished house with 200 yuan rent per month during the 2015 Lunar New Year. [Photo/qq.com]
