He Saved My Son's Life
(By Lt. Mohammad Masoumi)
My son was in the 4th grade of the elementary school, and I enrolled him in a martial arts sport club. Some day, during the training, he received a kick in the chest. Feeling unwell, he was transferred to the hospital. He was examined several times in a hospital in Shiraz. His doctor asked for 2 million Tomans to operate on him.
Sine I didn't have the money he demanded, I felt desperate and didn't know what to do. I visited the doctor again. He prescribed a shot to be injected one ampoule month, but he said that it was a temporary treatment and my son had to be operated on as soon as possible.
I looked for the prescribed medicine in various drugstores and bought 3 shots, for 7000 Tomans each. I gave one of the ampoules to his school to transfer the child to the hospital in time of need and have the ampoule injected.
Once, General Yasini had paid a visit to the school and meanwhile my son had felt unwell.
One of the teachers called me up and I rushed to the school. As I was entering the school, I saw my son in General Yasini's car. I felt so nervous.
General Yasini took hold of my hand and said."
Don't waste the time. Get in and let's go. "A quarter of an hour after receiving the shot, my son felt better and retuned to the normal condition.
We took him back home in General Yasini's car. I told him the story of my son and I could see the signs of sorrow in his face.
"Don't worry, just trust in God and be sure that he will solve the problems by his favors." He said, after some time, I was working in my office when the phone rang. It was General Yasini. He called me into his office and said" "Mr. Masoumi, I want
to send your son to Tehran and have him hospitalized to be operated on. "I'm hard up these days, and his operation will cost a fortune", I said.
He smiled and said: "Don't worry about it. God will grant you the money. I will notify you when they decide to perform the operation." The following day, he took my son to Tehran with him and had him hospitalized in Martyr Rajaee Heart Hospital.
One day, the General's son called me up and told me that my son, Mahdi, was going to be operated on that night, and asked me to get there as soon as possible. As I entered the hospital, I saw General Yasini walking in the corridor.
Seeing me, he went to the nurse and told her that I was the patient's father, and asked her to give me the paper to sign. I signed and agreed to have my son operated on. Then I inquired about Mahdi.
"Don't worry about him. He is in the room and he will undergo the surgery at 17:00" The General said.
The operation was performed successfully, and my son spent few days in the I.C.U afterwards.
When he was sure about the betterment of my son. He said: "Mr. Masoumi, you go to Shiraz.
When your son is dismissed from the hospital, I'll take him home with me.
"After a few days, he brought my son back home by plane. All my relatives gathered at my home to visit Mahdi. When they left my house, I went to Genral Yasini's office to thank him and also asked him about the cost of the operation. He smiled and said: "You do not owe us anything.
We are all indebted to God."
