I could not take back my hearing from fate (命运), but I could still shine.

——Jiang Mengnan

When Jiang Mengnan was just 6 months old, she lost her hearing after taking the wrong medicine (药), Jiang Mengnan couldn't hear anything any more. Life was very hard for her.

To know other people, Jiang learned to read lips (唇语) and feel sounds by putting her hands on her parent's throat (咽喉). It was a long way, but Jiang never stopped.

As she became older, Jiang went to a school. She said it was difficult at the beginning, In classes, teachers often turned their backs to students and walked around, so Jiang couldn'tcatch much of what they said. She had to write down everything on the blackboard and study after class.

With her parents' help, Jiang Mengnan worked hard and did best in all subjects. In 2011, she was glad to go to Jilin University (大学) in Changchun, Jilin. In 2018, Jiang started her studies at Tsinghua University. After three years, the 30-year-old had her doctorate (博士学位) of medicine.

In 2019, Jiang often went to the poor areas to teach and help students there. She is kind and people love her, too. Jiang wants to keep working on medicine and help more people.
