从渤海之滨的天津,到昆仑山下的新疆和田,相距四千多公里。
天津市西青区精武镇社区卫生服务中心副主任医师芦玉香,与新疆维吾尔自治区和田地区于田县科克亚乡喀拉都外村的女孩“小石榴”(阿娜尔古丽·亚森),用九年的牵挂,写下了一段津疆两地民族团结的温暖故事。
“芦妈妈,你太瘦了”
近日天津气温骤降,芦玉香惦记着远在新疆的“小石榴”,发微信问她冬衣准备了没有,有什么需要一定要说。
今年9月,芦玉香跨越千里前往于田看望了这个让她放心不下的“小石榴”。
院角的石榴树又蹿高一截,枝头挂着果子。一个扎着马尾的女孩跑出来,一把抱住芦玉香,把脸埋在她的肩上说:“芦妈妈,你太瘦了。”
九年前,芦玉香第一次抱起“小石榴”时还尚在襁褓,小脸皱皱巴巴。如今“小石榴”已长到她胸口高,眉眼舒展,左脸颊那道淡淡的疤痕在阳光下隐约可见。芦玉香伸手轻轻抚摸那道疤,没有说话。
病房里认下的“姐姐”
芦玉香在基层医疗岗位工作了三十多年。2016年底,单位第一次有了援疆名额,她第一个交上报名表,成为天津市第九批援疆干部人才,赴于田县人民医院工作。
2017年4月的一次产科查房,她第一次见到“小石榴”的母亲马依木尼汗。那是一位35岁并患有重度贫血的维吾尔族孕妇,当时血色素只有6克,因拿不出输血费要求出院。芦玉香想,两条人命,不能就这么算了。她请示工作组,把情况发进援疆干部工作群,约20分钟募集到2100元,当天下午,马依木尼汗输上了血。
芦玉香交代主管医生,后续费用直接找她,别告诉孕妇本人,每天忙完科里的工作就去病房照看这个没有家属陪护的妹妹,打水、翻身、说说话。两次输血后,马依木尼汗身体逐渐恢复,想认她做姐姐。
孩子出生前夜,芦玉香带着准备好的5000元赶去医院。马依木尼汗很紧张,说当年生第二个孩子时大出血,差点没命。芦玉香握着她的手说,别怕,有姐姐在。第二天中午,孩子平安出生,七斤六两。
“小石榴”的名字与未尽之约
给“小石榴”取乳名的是另一位天津援疆干部席世明。当年他望着窗外开花的石榴树说,就叫“小石榴”吧——愿她像石榴花一样明艳,也盼着各民族像石榴籽一样紧紧抱在一起。
2019年1月,席世明突发脑溢血,倒在援疆岗位上。进病房前,他拉住芦玉香的手,声音已经很微弱:“下周末,记得去看‘小石榴’,俩月没见,怪想她的。”那一年,席世明去世,年仅43岁。他没能再去看“小石榴”,但替他去看“小石榴”的人,一直没有断过。
回到精武镇后,芦玉香与“小石榴”一家始终保持联系,“小石榴”第一次背书包、第一次考出好成绩,她都知道。
从未间断过的援疆接力
此后,第十批天津援疆干部接过这份牵挂,在“小石榴”家院角种下一棵石榴树,让这棵树陪她慢慢长大。
2021年,“小石榴”意外烫伤,左脸留下疤痕。当时,天津援疆工作组迅速协调医疗资源,带“小石榴”前往和田市人民医院做了近八小时的修复手术,天津的援疆干部一直在手术室外默默守候。
第十一批、第十二批援疆干部也接棒为“小石榴”家修过漏雨的屋顶,填过房前坑洼的地面。她家客厅墙上还挂着一幅字,写着“津疆情深一家亲,石榴花开感党恩”。
“小石榴”对芦玉香说:“芦妈妈,我以后想去天津上大学,长大了有能力了,也要去帮助那些帮助过自己的人。”芦玉香听着,眼眶湿润了,把“小石榴”紧紧抱在怀里。
