Fan Xuesong feeding Niu
A passenger on a Zhengzhou-to-Haikou flight captured these photos of an air hostess feeding a paralyzed passenger. The photos posted online has since gone viral with many people hailing her kind gesture.
After seeing 71-year-old Niu struggling to eat, air hostess Fan Xuesong went above and beyond her duty, to help him eat by carefully feeding him.
'When I said I wanted to feed him, he suddenly felt touched and started to cry,' she said.
Miss Fan fed him rice which he found too hard to chew, so she grabbed a box of noodles, he chocked several times but she was patient.
This made Mr Niu cry even more, so she had to grab some tissues to wipe his tears away.
A passenger who saw the event unfold took a photo then uploaded it to Weibo - Chinese social media similar to Twitter - where it was shared by millions who also felt touched by the story.
The retired medical professor from Henan Province was traveling with his wife to Haikou. Due to paralysis from cerebral infarction two years ago, Niu is dependent on a wheelchair entirely, so the aircrew had transferred him to the only remaining wider seat in the first row.
And as his wife was separated and seated a few rows behind, she couldn’t help him.
