A woman is saved from cremation after the undertaker noticed tears in her eyes. “A Chinese peasant woman who suffered a brain haemorrhage was left at the undertakers alive for cremation because her family could no longer afford hospital treatment, state media said on Friday.
She was only saved by the tears in her eyes.
The case is the latest in a series of tragedies illustrating China’s stretched health care system and the inability of rural workers to meet spiralling medical costs.” (via FARK.com)
