Critical quadruplets's mom seeks public help

A 38-year-old woman from Dongfang, Hainan province, who recently gave birth to a set of quadruplet girls, has sought public help for the cost to save her "critically ill" daughters.

Zhu Rongjuan, who comes from a poor family, said she needed to raise more than 200,000 yuan ($29,295) to pay the medical fees for her newborns, who are receiving treatment at a local hospital.
