A couple from Hechuan county, Chongqing municipality, sing at weddings and funerals to earn extra money for their 11-year-old daughter's treatment.
Xie Zhonghua and Yuan Xiaoli are both teachers in a local primary school. Their daughter was diagnosed with cancer in February 2000.
The girl has had 9 operations already, and a few more are required.
Her treatment costs are a whopping 200,000 yuan ($29,294).
The girl's father and mother said they would work 24 hours a day if it could save their daughter.
