Dad digs grave for ill daughter to "prepare" her for death
You won't believe how far this dad has gone!
Zhang Liyong, a farmer from Sichuan, China, has dug a grave for his two-year-old daughter, Zhang Xinlei, who was born with a serious blood disorder called congenital Thalassemias.
The little girl was diagnosed with the disorder when she was just two months old and her parents have been fighting to treat her ever since, spending all their savings and salaries combined!
But despite all their efforts, none of treatments seem to have worked and they are unable to afford new treatment.

The couple decided to have a second child after the doctor informed them that their blood does not match that of their daughter's. This was done in the hopes that the baby's blood would be a match for little Xinlei. However, even if that is the case, they will not be able to afford the expensive procedure.
Mr Liyong has since taken matters into his own hands by digging a grave for Xinlei to familiarise herself with her burial place so that she won't be scared when the time comes.
