Pizhi says that her son has heart disease and has been on medication for a long time meaning that he cannot work. <\/p>\n

She says before the accident, the daughter-in-law did odd jobs to help keep the family afloat. Now that she is sick, the family does not have another source of income.  <\/p>\n

In order to allow her daughter-in-law to get better treatment, Pizhi borrowed the costume from a friend’s son. <\/p>\n

As the heat in Jinan has increased, the pensioner has found it increasingly hard to keep up with the work. <\/p>\n

She can squat down and talk to the children however she needs constant breaks as it becomes too much.  <\/p>\n
