It was reported that a pregnant woman committed suicide in Yulin City, Shanxi Province on August 31th. According to the report, the 26-year-old woman named Ma Rongrong requested to have a Caesarean because she can't withstand the huge pain. However, her family member refused her request and insisted on the natural labor despite the woman's kneeling behavior. At last, the woman jumped out of the window from the fifth floor of the hospital and lost her and her child's life.

I sank into deep sadness after hearing the poignant news. Why can't the woman decide her own surgery and her fate? Where was the woman's husband when the woman was tormented by despair and insecurity? What her families provided her is the so-called comfort and encouragement. What caused the tragic ending was not the labor pain, it was the woman's sheer desperation to the world.
