• 去世前，她给孩子留下短信:
  5月13日中午，救援队员发现她的时候，她已经没有了呼吸。透过一堆废墟的间隙，可以看到她双膝跪地，整个上身向前匍匐着，双手扶地支撑着身体……救援队员从空隙伸手进去，确认她已经死亡，又冲着废墟大声呼喊，没有任何回应。这是震后的北川县，还有很多人在等待着救援。救援队走向下一片废墟时，队长好像意识到什么，忽然返身跑回来，他费力地把手伸进她的身下摸索，高声喊，“还有个孩子，还活着！” 一番艰难的努力后，人们终于把孩子救了出来。他躺在一条红底黄花的小被子里，大概有三四个月大，因为有母亲的身体庇护，孩子毫发未伤。 随行的医生过来准备给孩子做些检查，发现有一部手机塞在被子里，医生下意识地看了一下手机屏幕，发现屏幕上是一条已经写好的短信：“亲爱的宝贝，如果你能活着，一定要记住我爱你。”
  
  
• 3岁地震孤儿馨懿见人就叫“爸爸妈妈” :
  
  
  
  
  救护人员围在一处严重损毁的屋角处——压在房屋下的是两个不幸遇难的大人，被他们护在身下的是一名眨着大眼睛的小女孩。这个只有三岁的小女孩在与死神抗争了４０多个小时后，从废墟中被解救出来时，周围的人都哭了：已经故去的年轻父母脸对脸、胳膊搭着胳膊，用自己的身体搭成一个拱形，在地震发生的一瞬双双挡住倒塌下来的沉重墙体，用血肉之躯为自己的孩子构筑了一道“生命的围墙”。
