I decided to take the test twice

I am from a county in Panzhihua, Sichuan province. When I was 6 years old, I accidentally touched a high-voltage cable and blacked out. When I regained consciousness, I found that my arms had been amputated. It was a huge blow. I was plunged into darkness.
My world was completely overturned. All I could do every day was shout "Mom, I'm hungry", or "Dad, I need to use the bathroom". I often asked myself if there was any point in living and thought I might as well die.
Months passed, and one day it occurred to me that although I had no hands, I still had two precious things - my feet and my brain. I decided to train my feet to replace my hands.
