Yan Qianyu suffered 95 percent burns saving her mother from a fire.



A life still in danger

The doctor in charge, Sun Yufei, explained Yan is being kept in the Extraordinarily Severe Burn Unit. Not only was she badly burned externally, her lungs suffered damage through the inhalation of smoke and extreme heat. Life-threatening complications may occur at any given time.

The surface of her wounds needs to be treated and healed in the future through microskin grafting and allogeneic skin grafting transplantation.

Sun has stated that at least five or six surgeries, at the total cost of some 1.5 million yuan, would be needed in the future in order to save the child's life.

Thousands follow and forward Yan's story

Thousands of internet users have followed and forwarded yan's heroic story and donations are flooding in to help pay for medical treatment for her terrible injuries.

Henan real estate company Tianlun is donating 100,000 yuan (US$16120) while a local charity organization has contributed 10,000 yuan.
