影/2岁爱女战胜白血病化疗 养父抱她漫舞圆满「公主梦」都笑了
美国乔治亚州有位2岁女童菲妮克丝(Phoenix)患有白血病,日前她完成第一阶段的化疗,小小身躯就得与病魔持续对抗。领养她的父亲布雷特(Brett)则准备惊喜,串通护理师帮菲妮克丝准备黄色的洋装,他自己则穿上西装,抱着女儿浪漫共舞,让妻子相当感动。

菲妮克丝今年8月2日诊断出白血病,此外,她还患有骨髓造血不良症候群(MDS),她的生母惠特尼(Whitney)因为吸毒而无法照顾孩子,现阶段便由布雷特与妻子克里斯蒂娜(Christina Thompson)一起抚养。
菲妮克丝完成第一阶段的化疗后,布雷特则预先准备好数件洋装,请护理师先把衣服送到病房内,等到孩子穿好后,他便来到病房并抱起女儿,缓慢随着音乐舞动,旁边的床上还放着许多娃娃,仿佛是场派对。妻子将这段画面分享到脸书,感动许多人,她写道,「老实说,我不觉得自己能再遇到对孩子更好的男人了」,她非常感激老公的所为。

影片可见,布雷特抱着女儿时,两人都微笑了,这名暖心的父亲还带来鲜花,就为了给孩子特别的一天。妻子形容,她的老公一直是很了不起的人,而现在除了照顾菲妮克丝,他们还另外育有4名孩子,并确保每个宝贝都能得到关爱。
听闻影片爆红,克里斯蒂娜说这是她完全没预想到的,「但我很高兴能够散播快乐与幸福的眼泪。」根据募款页面,菲妮克丝还要接受3次化疗,她的生母也多次来到医院,努力调整自己的状况,希望未来能与女儿一起生活。
Today on Phee’s last day of chemo on her first round and Daddy came to visit. Little did we know he had some surprises for us. I mean honestly I don’t think I could have picked a better man for my kids. At 2 years old this is hard on her on her family and the people that love her. These little moments make these times not so hard. A nurse came in and was like a volunteer dropped these dresses off I grabbed Pheonix one I TOTALLY believed her but really Brett had brought it. Brett thank you for being just what our children need. Did I mention she really loves her daddy. https://www.gofundme.com/95yght-fighting-for-phoenix #childhoodcancersucks
