Miraculous Recovery: High School Student Overcomes Brain Hemorrhage to Pursue Dream of Becoming a Neurosurgeon

The episode, aired on the 17th, featured the first-ever high school student who passed the middle school equivalency exam. The student revealed, "I dropped out in the second year of middle school and later returned to high school." The student's mother, who appeared on the show, explained the circumstances surrounding the dropout.
Back in 2023, when the student was in the second year of middle school, they suffered from severe headaches and collapsed, leading to a diagnosis of a brain hemorrhage. Despite undergoing emergency surgery, the student was in a near-brain-dead state with a survival probability of less than 10%, forcing the parents to prepare for the worst.

Now back to being a regular student, the high schooler genuinely enjoys school life and has even received an 'Excellence in Academics' award. Inspired by their miraculous recovery, the student aspires to become a 'neurosurgeon.' Remarkably, after regaining the ability to move their arms, the student expressed a desire to solve math problems and continued studying math even while bedridden.

Viewers of the show expressed their admiration, saying, "Such incredible determination," "Studying even in the hospital bed... amazing," and "I hope they continue to study well and stay healthy."
