Oncology Physician Life

Chapter 43 Chapter 42 Father and Daughter

Sun Renyi, the director of emergency surgery, was about to end his day's work and enjoy the hard-won leisure in the office.His office was remodeled from the redundant consulting room of the original hospital. It is much larger than other doctors' offices. There are blue curtains hanging on the arc-shaped French windows, and a whole wall of remodeled bookcases are filled with various books and medicine. Certificate of award.

On the left near the desk is the latest coffee machine, on the right is a locker, and next to the window is a sofa bed.Sun Renyi sat down on the sofa bed by the window with the brewed hand-cranked coffee, and took a sip. He only felt that it was very bitter and salty. He was used to instant three-in-one coffee, so he really couldn't appreciate it. Kind, but this pack of hand-rolled coffee he ordered from Qi Song, the director of the oncology department, heard that it was not cheap, and it was a pity to throw it away.

After thinking for a while, Sun Renyi pinched his nose, swallowed all the bitterness in his mouth, and kept smacking his tongue and said: "It's so bad to drink, and it's so expensive. Rich people really have too much money and nowhere to spend it. Find 'bitterness' by yourself." eat!"

On the other side, in the corridor outside the emergency surgery clinic, the sound of crying kept fermenting in the corridor. A large group of people gathered outside the clinic room. Some people sat blankly on the chairs in the corridor, and some took out their mobile phones and cried. Recap the situation to the person on the phone.

Li Ming, the attending doctor of emergency surgery, put his hands in the pockets of his white coat, facing Qin Dazhong's nephew and daughter, waiting for them to make a final decision.

Qin Dazhong was transferred from Hangzhou Hospital to Shanghai at [-] o'clock this evening. He was diagnosed with diffuse glioma. After the operation in Hangzhou, the brainstem hemorrhage occurred and he fell into a coma. The doctor there basically said that he could give up treatment. But Qin Xiaoya, Qin Dazhong's daughter, disagreed.

So the daughter decided to transfer her father to a cancer hospital in Shanghai overnight.

After the patient arrived, he was sent directly to the emergency surgery department, and the doctor in the medical oncology department had been notified to come for consultation.

Within a few minutes, Wei Ran hurriedly drove from home to the emergency department, and also watched Qin Dazhong's film and the whole treatment process of the prognosis of the operation.

Qin Dazhong is only 55 years old this year. After surgery to remove the brain tumor, he suffered a hemorrhage in the central nervous system. The amount of hemorrhage was very large. The doctor in Hangzhou suggested that he give up treatment, because this kind of patient is basically incurable, even if he is put in the ICU. Just boil time.

Wei Ran looked at Qin Dazhong's family. He has a son and a daughter. The son is in BJ. He is getting married next week. He hasn't rushed back yet. Only his daughter is with him, and other relatives are also with him. people.

Qin Dazhong's daughter works locally in Shanghai. She is a white-collar worker and married in her 30s. She is dressed in a neat white shirt and black flared trousers. Her capable appearance leaves a deep impression on people.

Qin Xiaoya resisted the panic in her heart, and still pretended to be very calm on the surface. She couldn't fall down at this time, because her brother hadn't come yet, and now she was the pillar of the family and her father's last and only hope for life.

Qin Xiaoya's eyes were like nails, staring at Wei Ran's face firmly, even though she tried her best to control her voice, she could still hear a slight tremor: "Doctor, tell me, is my father hopeless? Give me a Are you sure, my father, will there be a miracle?"

You give me a certainty, will my father perform a miracle!

This sentence made Wei Ran swallow the words that came to his lips, and he didn't know how to tell a daughter to let her give up her father's life.

If this decision was made by the father's daughter herself, to let the daughter give up her father's life, then this daughter will live on the tip of the knife for the rest of her life!

"The location of the patient's brain tumor was not very good. Although part of the tumor was removed during the operation, a part close to the brain center was still left. After the second operation, there was a large amount of bleeding in the brain stem, which caused the patient to fall into a severe coma. Maintained by a ventilator, once the tube is extubated, the patient will stop breathing!"

Wei Ran tried his best to consider his own words, he was scalded hot by Qin Dazhong's daughter's nail-like eyes.

Qin Xiaoya grabbed Wei Ran's hand and exerted force suddenly, as if she had made up her mind: "Is it... a vegetable?"

Wei Ran shook his head: "The brainstem function of a vegetative person is normal, but your father's brainstem function damage is permanent and irreversible. Now we can only rely on medical equipment to maintain the heartbeat. Generally speaking, from our doctor's point of view, if the patient There is a heartbeat, but there is no spontaneous breathing, and the brain function has been permanently lost, which is actually brain death."

Wei Ran must cruelly tell his daughter the truth about the patient, and make her mentally prepared.

Qin Xiaoya's face turned pale, and she nodded: "I understand, that is...if the ventilator is stopped, my father will...just leave?"

Wei Ran nodded: "That's right."

His words silenced Qin Dazhong's relatives in the corridor collectively.

Li Ming glanced at Wei Ran and asked, "So, now the patient's family has to make a decision, should the patient be transferred to the ICU, or should they just give up at the emergency room?"

Qin Dazhong's sisters and brothers came together and looked at Qin Xiaoya, Qin Dazhong's daughter.

"Xiaoya, the doctor has already said that if your father is like this, if he is admitted to the ICU, the cost will be 8000 yuan a day, and [-] yuan in ten days. In the end, your father still can't be saved, but you two You still have to live, your father won't blame you!"

"Xiaoya, it's not that you two are not filial. We all know your filial piety. You've already spent a lot of money. It's your father who doesn't live up to expectations. Listen to the child and listen to the doctor."

"Sister Xiaoya, brother Xiaozhi is not here, you are the pillar of the family, give me an idea."

The relatives gathered around and surrounded Qin Xiaoya. Although they spoke comforting words, the words between the lines were like knives stabbing Qin Xiaoya's heart, trying to make her give up her father in the emergency room.

But Qin Xiaoya was not reconciled.

Once she chooses to extubate, her father will stop breathing, his father will leave, and she will become a child without a father.

Qin Xiaoya felt flustered in her heart, she regretted that her mother died early, and her father worked hard to educate her siblings, but she married far away in Shanghai, her younger brother went to work in BJ, and the siblings left their father alone in Hangzhou.

Now her father is very close to her, as close as the door of the emergency room, but no matter how much she calls her father, his father can no longer respond to her.

Lying alone in the cold emergency room, how lonely is my father?

Is father blaming her at this moment?
But Qin Xiaoya knew that the last relationship between her and her father in the world was the breathing tube that was as thick as a little finger and more than one meter long.

As long as this tube is still there, she can still see her father!
If she pulled out the tube, father would be gone for good.

Qin Xiaoya seemed to muster all her strength, looked at Wei Ran who was outside the crowd, and said, "Doctor, I choose the ICU, no matter what, please help me, I don't want to just let my father go, even our sister The brothers left without seeing each other for the last time!"

Wei Ran understood Qin Xiaoya's mood, and turned to look at Li Ming: "Transfer the patient to the ICU ward over there."

Li Ming nodded: "The family members go to the front desk to pay. The ICU fee is 8000 yuan a day. You can see how many days you want to stay."

Wei Ran looked at Qin Xiaoya's back, he understood the daughter's feelings, because he also had such an experience, when his father joined the Qinghai Medical Assistance Team, unfortunately there was an accident, the doctor also declared brain dead, whether to extubate in the end, The decision-making power falls on Wei Ran, who is his son.

To let a son kill his father with his own hands, he thought that there was nothing more cruel than the profession of a doctor in this world.

But he knew that he had to make this decision!

Because the mother is still there!

Sometimes, doctors don't want family members to kill their relatives' lives cruelly, but they want to leave room for it.

This leeway is reserved for the living, the courage to continue living.

Hanif Qureshi wrote a sentence in "The Body", "You will eventually find that there is only one priceless treasure in the world, neither gold nor love, but time."

Many times, before you even have time to have a good talk with the people closest to you, you will find that your parents’ hair has turned white and their body is bent. Sometimes, even before you have time to say goodbye to your parents, your parents have already left.

In the short and fast modern social life, everyone is busy, but most of the time, we don't know why we have to be so busy?
Busy work, busy 996, busy staying up late and working overtime, busy studying.

It's hard to find a time to be quiet, let time slow down, enjoy the afternoon sun, and enjoy a trip with your parents.

There are thousands of ways to live in life, but we often choose the one we regret the most.

Just as Wei Ran turned to leave the emergency department, he happened to see Jiang Li running in with a little girl in his arms.

He ran over immediately, took the little girl from Jiang Li's arms, turned around and ran towards the emergency room.

Jiang Li followed behind panting: "I met this girl in the garden just now, she had severe pain in her right breast, I checked her body, the girl's right breast is bigger than the left breast, and the right breast can be palpably hard. Lump, and the girl's right axillary apical lymph node is enlarged, I suspect it is right breast cancer."

Wei Ran put the little girl on the hospital bed in the emergency room, glanced at Li Ming who was no longer by his side, and hurriedly said to the nurse in the room: "Li Ming is the only doctor on duty in your emergency department tonight?"

The nurse glanced at the time: "Our Director Sun is here today, but at this time, Director Sun should rest, right?"

Wei Ran raised his watch to check the time, and said to Jiang Li: "You are watching the girl here, I will call Director Sun over, in this case, it should be a fine needle aspiration, you are not the doctor on duty in the emergency department, according to According to the regulations, you can’t make a diagnosis.”

Jiang Li nodded, she glanced at the girl who couldn't open her eyes in pain, and hurriedly asked: "Liu Kaishi, do you have your mother's phone number?"

The girl nodded, and reported her mother's phone number to Jiang Li in a weak voice.

Jiang Li immediately called the girl's mother, and the call was connected quickly: "Hi, I'm Jiang Li, a doctor in the oncology department. Is this Liu Kaishi's mother?"

The woman on the phone was obviously taken aback, and responded, "It's Professor Jiang, what's wrong with our family's regular poems?"

Seeing that the woman recognized him, Jiang Li hurriedly said, "Your daughter is now suspected of having breast cancer in the right side. She is in the 3rd emergency surgery room. There is an urgent need for a Bard needle puncture here, and family members need to come over."

"Right breast cancer?" The woman visibly panicked when she heard Jiang Li's words, "Impossible, our child is only 12 years old, how could he have this disease!"

"Now is not the time to discuss this, please come over quickly." Jiang Li immediately hung up the phone.

After a while, Sun Renyi, who was resting, was pulled over by Wei Ran. Sun Renyi's face was full of impatience: "I said, Dr. Wei, why are you so anxious, you have to come here in person."

Wei Ran brought Sun Renyi into the consultation room, and as soon as Sun Renyi came in, he saw Jiang Li and the girl on the hospital bed.

He looked unhappy: "Why is it you again? Professor Jiang really likes to help others everywhere. Last time it was the little boy from PBB, and this time it was this little girl again."

Jiang Li didn't have time to listen to Sun Renyi's complaints, so he directly stated his diagnosis.

Sun Renyi examined the girl, "In this case, I think it's better to transfer to the Pediatric Oncology Department at Professor Jiang's side. If it's transferred to the Breast Surgery Department of the hospital, you may need a doctor from the Breast Surgery Department for consultation. "

Speaking of which, Sun Renyi looked at the time: "Oh, it's already past nine o'clock in the evening. There may not be any doctors at the breast surgery department. We have to wait until tomorrow morning."

Jiang Li is impatient, so there is no need to wait: "Then transfer directly to our Children's Oncology Department."

Sun Renyi called the nurse: "This is Professor Jiang from the Children's Oncology Department. This patient has been transferred to Professor Jiang's side. After a while, the emergency department will go through a procedure and transfer the patient away."

Wei Ran looked at Jiang Li helplessly, Sun Renyi's character of not making trouble for himself is really annoying.

After a while, Liu Kaishi's mother hurried over, still wearing the blue vest of the hospital nurse.

Wei Ran glanced at the woman's face and frowned: "Is this nurse Zhang's daughter?"

Zhang Kaili nodded hurriedly: "Doctor Wei, what's wrong with my daughter?"

Wei Ran comforted her, and briefly recounted her daughter's situation. Zhang Kaili was a little confused, and then tears fell down, and she suddenly slapped herself loudly: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault." It's my fault, this kid said some time ago that his chest hurts, and I didn't pay attention, thinking about taking some medicine, I didn't expect..."

"Don't worry, Dr. Jiang is in the emergency room, doing Bard's needle puncture. When the results of the pathological examination come out, everyone will know what's going on!"

Wei Ran sighed, he knew something about Zhang Kaili's situation.

Zhang Kaili's husband works outside the home all the year round, and she works as a nurse in the hospital herself. She takes care of more than ten patients by herself. She has to work in three shifts day and night.

In the emergency room, Jiang Li took the Bud needle puncture kit from the nurse, took out a long and thin puncture needle, glanced at the girl on the hospital bed, and said softly: "Kaishi, Auntie is going to puncture you now." One injection will hurt more, you have to bear with it!"

Liu Kaishi nodded, and as the thin needle in Jiang Li's hand pierced the girl's right breast, the girl's hand tightened visibly, she gritted her teeth tightly, and didn't make a sound.

Jiang Li took a look at the 12-year-old girl, who was so strong that it made people feel distressed.

Soon, Jiang Li finished the fine needle puncture, sent the nurse to urgently do pathology, turned around and helped the girl out of the emergency room.

Zhang Kaili hurried over and hugged her daughter in her arms.

Liu Kaishi wiped away the tears from her mother's eyelids, and laughed: "Mom don't cry, I'm fine."

Listening to her daughter's words, Zhang Kaili hugged her daughter and choked with distress.

Jiang Li looked at the mother and daughter, and said softly: "For the specific situation, we still have to wait for the pathology results to come out. Go through the hospitalization procedures with the nurse first. The child has been transferred to my side. If there is any situation, just communicate with me directly."

Zhang Kaili nodded: "Thank you, Professor Jiang, if the child hadn't met you today, I wouldn't have known her..."

Jiang Li comforted her a few words, followed Wei Ran out of the emergency department.

"Judging from the girl's situation, the tumor has reached the lymph nodes, so the situation is not optimistic."

Wei Ran sighed, obviously in a bad mood: "I also received a patient who was transferred from Hangzhou at night. The brain tumor was surgically resected, the brainstem hemorrhage, and brain death. My daughter refused to give up the treatment and was transferred to the ICU. Now It's just a matter of time."

The two stood side by side, looking at the stars in the night sky.

Jiang Li suddenly said: "How is Auntie doing recently?"

"My mother?" Wei Ran shook his head and smiled, "My mother is still the same, but she wants to go back to the countryside to see my grandmother recently, I promised her, this time no matter what, I will take three days off to accompany her back."

"Three days off?" Jiang Li smiled, "Can Director Song give you a vacation?"

"No!" Wei Ran stretched his waist, "But I have a way!"

Jiang Li curiously asked: "What way?"

Wei Ran blinked: "Secret, you will know when the time comes!"
