18-year-old Xie Xu carries his 19-year-old disabled classmate Zhang to school every day and has been doing so for for three years already. Zhang suffers from muscular dystrophy, a condition that weakens skeletal muscle and makes it very difficult for those with the disease to walk or carry their own weight. Both students are top of their class. Chinese student has carried disabled friend to class every day for three years | Daily Mail Online

What selfless act to take on such a responsibility every day and to carry the young boy up and down stairs too. It's remarkable what some people are prepared to do for others.

I wish the both of them every success for the future.

If China has 10,000 of this guy Xie Xu, it would be a superpower already.

The 18-year old will build physical strength from this, which will carry him well into his later years. His bones and muscles will build up a density that will serve him well, much like my Grandfather. He worked his teen years on the railroad, assisted his father in a blacksmith shop, later worked as a shipbuilder and auto mechanic. He lived 96 good, strong, healthy years, thanks in no small part to the strength he built in his formative years.

For this young man, there will be a star in his crown!

If only Xie Xu had one pull-along wagon...

They have, but people are not interested in good news. That's why only scandalous news are published.
