Big sister raises sick little brother

He Ping, a 20-year-old university student picks up her 8-year-old brother from school in Xiangtan, Central China's Hunan province, Sept 19, 2011. She began raising her brother one year ago, as the boy has heart disease and both of her parents are ill at home. A junior at Hunan University of Science and Technology, she survives on scholarships and grants, and by working part-time jobs. She once worked seven jobs at the same time, including a stint as a private tutor, and leaflet distributor. She currently has five part-time jobs and sends 500 to 600 yuan home every month.
