Heartbreaking Moment Dying Mum Records 25 Years Of Birthday Wishes For Newborn Baby

A young mum who is dying of cancer has recorded 25 years of birthday wishes for her newborn baby.

Lin, 26, was faced with a difficult decision earlier this year after discovering she was pregnant.


She had to choose whether she should continue with her pregnancy despite suffering osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer.

The decision was easy and Lin went ahead with it and gave birth to a healthy baby girl on September 1.

But she was then given devastating news by doctors – she did not have much time left to live.

So the young mum decided to record messages for her daughter for her to listen to every year until she turns 25.

Heartbreaking footage posted by CCTV News shows the woman lying in her hospital bed sending her baby a first birthday message.

The baby’s grandmother can be seen crying in the background as the 26-year-old sings Happy Birthday to her daughter.

The video also shows Lin’s newborn daughter lying in a bed with a breathing apparatus.

Lin tells her in the message: ‘Mum will leave for a while to a particularly far away place. I temporarily can not go home..but I’ll come back to see u at any time.’

She ends the heartbreaking message: ‘Be good my baby.’

The video has led to a flood of comments being left on China’s social media site Weibo, by people sharing their sadness at the story.

One person wrote: ‘She must be very sad when she was recording her message.’

While another wrote: ‘This courageous mother gave birth to her kid, this is her personal choice. We have to respect her decision.’
