国防科技大学计算机学院研究员王戟在2013年1月23日因主动脉夹层突然病危[1]。他被紧急送往湘雅医院，经历了13小时的手术[1]。随后至2013年7月1日期间，王戟又接受了十余次后续手术[1]，最终双下肢高位截肢[1]。
面对人生的巨变，王戟以顽强的意志力走出低谷。2015年春节过后，他重返工作岗位，继续从事高可信软件技术研究工作[1]。在这一过程中，母亲刘桂枝的鼓励深深影响了他，她说："身残志坚的人多了去了，如果你能够面对，大家都会帮你，都会推你一把"[1]。如今，王戟以自身经历寄语年轻人："不要怕挫折，不要怕困难"[1]。
Wang Ji, a researcher at the School of Computer Science at the National University of Defense Technology, suffered a sudden aortic dissection on January 23, 2013, and was rushed to Xiangya Hospital [1]. The emergency surgery lasted 13 hours, followed by more than a dozen additional procedures between January 23 and July 1, 2013 [1]. As a result of the surgical interventions, Wang Ji underwent bilateral high-level amputation of both lower limbs [1].
Despite this severe setback, Wang Ji demonstrated remarkable resilience. After receiving support from his family and society, he returned to his work position following the Spring Festival in 2015, continuing his research in highly reliable software technology [1]. His mother, Liu Guizhi, reflected on his determination, saying: "There are many people who are physically disabled but spiritually strong; if you can face it, everyone will help you and give you a push" [1]. Wang Ji himself offers encouragement to young people, stating: "Do not fear setbacks, do not fear difficulties" [1].
