The gesture of this 12 year old boy with his best friend went around the world

April 5, 2019

The story of the solidarity of a 12-year-old boy with his best friend goes around the world. The gesture of this child from China gives us all a lesson in friendship.

Little Xu Bingyang is 12 years old and lives in Sichuan, a province in southwestern China. Her story goes around the world because since she's only six, she's running her best friend, Zhang Ze, loaded on the back to school.

It turns out that Zhang Ze can not walk because he is suffering from muscular hypotonia, a very rare disease that keeps him from moving alone.

But that's not the only thing he's doing for his friend. The child helps his partner to find lunch, to move around the school, to go to the bathroom, to help him with everything he needs.

The 40 kilos of Xu Bingyang are charged daily with the 25 of Zhang Ze. It is not "difficult" to raise his friend, on the contrary: it is very satisfying to have become "his cane", explained the child to the local media, even though his parents did not even know what he was doing for his partner.

Zhang Ze only has words of thanks for his friend: "Xu Bingyang is my best friend, every day he studies with me, talks with me and plays with me". At the age of four, he was diagnosed with a small muscle hypotonia, a condition that causes contraction of the muscles and a psychomotor deficit of the patient.
