A Peking University student has pledged to donate her head for scientific research after she dies.
北京大学一名学生表示，死后愿意捐献她的头部用于科研。
Ms Lou Tao, 29, a PhD candidate at the university, has been suffering from motor neuron disease for the past two years.
29岁的娄滔是北大的一名博士，她忍受运动神经元病(俗称“渐冻症”)的折磨已经有两年了。
"After I pass away, I want to give up my head for medical study and hope motor neuron disease can be overcome soon so that those suffer from this disease can get rid of the pain," Ms Lou said in her will, which has been published online.
娄滔在她那已被发表到网上的遗嘱中说道：“我走之后，头部可留给医学做研究。希望医学能够早日攻克这个难题，让那些因‘渐冻症’而饱受折磨的人早日摆脱痛苦。”
Ms Lou’s parents signed a human organ donation document on behalf of her, who is now in "deep sedation".
娄滔的父母代表她签署了一份人体器官捐献文件，她现在正处于“深度镇静”状态。
Ms Lou’s supporters have managed to raise one million yuan (S$205,461) to help with her medical treatment.
娄滔的支持者们设法筹集了100万人民币(205,461美元)来帮助她治疗。
Before her diagnosis, Ms Lou had hoped to become a history professor after graduation. But she came down with the disease unexpectedly.
在确诊前，娄滔希望毕业之后成为一名历史学教授。但她出乎意料地病倒了。
In October 2015, Ms Lou first discovered that she could not move one of her toes. Three months later, she was diagnosed with motor neuron disease. Ms Lou was admitted to intensive care in hospital in January.
2015年10月，娄滔首次发现她的一根脚趾动不了了。三个月后，她被诊断出患有运动神经元病。今年1月，娄滔在医院重症监护室接受了治疗。
In her will, Ms Lou also expressed her wish to donate all her other organs to help those in need. She also did not want a funeral wake after she dies and declined monetary condolences from families and friends.
在她的遗嘱中，娄滔也表达了她愿意捐献所有其它器官来帮助那些需要帮助的人。她也不希望死后举行葬礼，并拒绝家人和朋友的吊唁。
"The meaning of life is not determined by how long or short one lives; rather, it is measured by the quality of one’s life," Ms Lou said in her will, adding that she wanted to "leave with dignity".
娄滔在遗嘱中表示：“生命的意义不是由一个人活多久来决定的;更确切地说，它是由生命的质量来衡量的。”她还补充道，她想“带着尊严离开”。
"Please let me leave quietly, without a trace, just as if I have never been in this world," she said in her will.
她在遗嘱中称：“请让我安静地离开，不留一丝痕迹，就像我从来没有来过这个世界一样。”
