Miracle Physical Therapist

“Ah!”

His voice was not like elasticity. Her voice was clearly accompanied by pain.

“What's the matter? Are you sick? ”

“I don't know, my legs suddenly hurt. ”

The miracle stopped because he thought he was hurting his thirst while touching the muscles.

But when I woke up, it wasn't like that. The place where Heo Kyung Sook was touching was different from the area where he was exercising.

“Huh? Does it hurt there? ”

“Oh, I don't know. It's just my whole leg hurts a little bit. ”

“Still?”

“I feel a little uneasy, even though I'm feeling better now. And it's hot. ”

Suddenly, Suyeon, the delayed sister, ran into a month and looked at her with anxious eyes.

I was worried about the miracle's eyes. But for now, it was hard to find the cause. It wasn't like we could do any tests like a hospital.

“That's all for today. Let's go home and get some rest and see if you feel any pain. ”

“… OK. ”

So, Heo Kyung-sook left a worrying answer and went home.

For the next few days, vacillation did not complain of pain. However, the worrying eyes of the miracle grew deeper.

I have been walking in place since the day I complained of pain that my condition had rapidly improved during the first week.

I thought the miracle might be in sudden leg pain. The exact day that change came from the beginning.

“Did you have any more pain on your leg that day? ”

Heo Hyeong-suk hesitated for a moment.

“Well… yes……. ”

“Why didn't you tell me? I asked you the next day, and I asked you to tell me whenever you were in pain. ”

A crawling voice flows from his mouth.

“There was really no problem that day……. The next night I was in pain...... and I thought I'd be fine soon...... but I kept getting pain...... ”

“Phew... ”

The miracle takes a short sigh and opens its mouth.

“If you have any symptoms, you have to tell me right away, okay? ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

That's as far as nagging goes. A miraculous look shifts the subject.

“So why is that? Why does it hurt? I need to find out... … how does pain come to you? And you've never felt anything different? ”

“Hmm... If it's different from usual...... I feel my legs are a little hot. I told you before, the parts that hurt the most... ”

“Is your leg hot? And your appendix hurts? ”

“Yes, for now. ”

“Wait a minute. I'll see what I can find. ”

The miracle of understanding was that I took my smartphone and went to a site where I could check medical information. Then began searching for complications in SCI patients.

How much time has passed? The miracle's eyes sparkle.

‘The pain in the gastrocnemius...... My legs are burning...... ’

A miracle with something in mind speaks to the void.

“Legs, would you like to try to walk? ”

At that, he leaned down and looked up at his legs. The miracle of looking at the leg was that I touched the leg with a more serious face. And not long after, I felt sorry for his face.

‘Why didn't I know this...... I have edema on my leg. Edema in the legs... Hot legs...... Long-lived pain...... There was a blood clot in the legs...... I should have approached it in more directions.... All I could think about was my basic training, and I missed something important. I wish Heo Hyeong-suk had told me earlier... ’

Of course, it would have been nice if Heo Hyeong-suk had told me beforehand.

However, Heo Kyung-sook is an SCI patient. Of course, it is an Asian scale D patient who is said to have a significant portion of sensory and motor nerves remaining, but is still an SCI patient.

Of course, sensation and motor skills cannot be the same as ordinary people. Rather than feeling sorry for not being able to say it in advance, it is more right to thank you for telling me now.

He could not have known this miracle. He spoke in a calm voice, longing for a sad heart. At the moment, it was the most important thing that the patient was not surprised.

“Heo Kyung-suk, I looked at your leg and it looks like you have a clot. ”

“A clot? What's a clot? Is that scary? ”

“Ah, no. It's just a little bit of blood. And of course, in some cases, it might be scary, but I don't think it is yet. But first, I need you to go to the hospital and have a checkup. I think you need to be tested and drugged. ”

“Well……. ”

Heo Hyeong-suk didn't answer. Worrying about money weighed heavily on my mind. You'd need money to get tested, but you couldn't afford it.

“Wait a minute.”

The miracle of knowing this took place for a while. Then I picked up my smartphone and called somewhere. Immediately, I heard a voice from behind the handset. The main character was Choi Parallel.

It's been a long time. What did the busy person call you at this hour for?

“Sir, how are you? I wanted to ask you something. ”

Oh, yeah? Ask me anything.

“I have a SCI patient in my center. I think he has a clot in his leg. I'd like to take a little test...... because he's a little difficult. ”

The guy in trouble pays 100,000 won to be treated? Do you have insurance? You wouldn't have anything to worry about with insurance. Every crazy prosecutor is insured these days.

“No, I wouldn't call you if I had insurance. Now there's a story, and I'm just looking at it for free. What I'm wondering is, how much would it cost to get a clot test? ”

Choi Parallel said, "Mmm-hmm."

As far as I know, thromboembolism can be obtained through vascular ultrasound or MRI imaging…… This is too expensive……. I have a CT... but I don't know if I can get a clot from it...

The voice of Choi Parallel became distant.

Hey, Reinforcements. You getting a C.T.? Oh, is that so? Contrast? Iodinated contrast? Heart disease?

And then the voice got closer.

Hey, Dean, I can see the clot on a CT scan. But I'm gonna need some contrast. Do you have a heart condition? My staff says contrast can have side effects if you have a heart condition.

“Oh, really? ”

Choi Parallel said to Eid if he thought it would not work like this.

Tell him to come to our hospital. I think it's best to consult a specialist and make a decision. I'll take care of it so you don't have to worry about money. We should help each other.

“Do you mind if I do that? ”

Haha, I don't usually do that. But he's a hard man to live with. Then I can help you. Instead, we get to keep our money separate. We need to take advantage of that. Hahaha.

The place where Choi Parallel talked about getting money was probably the Medical Insurance Corporation. The miracle that I noticed was answered with a more comfortable voice.

“Thank you. I'll send him right away. ”

After the call, the miracle faced starvation again. And I explained the situation to her. There's a hospital I know well, and it's a good place to talk to, so go get tested. You don't have to worry about money.

At first, Heo Kyung Sook didn't nod. He was also hesitant, saying that he could not cause any trouble.

But it didn't take long to convince him. If I kept doing this, I would have changed my mind about saying minminmind-numbing to me and persuading my daughters.

“Then get tested. It shouldn't be too hard to get there. Go tell him my name. If you get tested, just leave me a text. ”

“Very well. Thank you. Thank you very much, sir. ”

The three people who thanked me left the center. Three people's steps led to a nursing home not far away.

* * *

Miracle expectations were right. About 3 hours after he left the hospital, a long text message flew in.

Sir, it's Su-yeon. I'm afraid you're busy. Leave a message instead of a phone. I ran her labs, and she's got a clot. But fortunately, it's not that bad.

He said it was early, and that medication would help relieve the symptoms of thrombosis as much as possible. He said he came very well in the beginning. The doctor said, Usually SCI patients don't find this disease in time. What we found this time is almost a miracle.

I don't know what to thank you for. It's a little crazy…… but I've never actually received a Christmas present since I was born. But I think I really got a Christmas present this year. And the gift, of course, is you. You came to my house for Christmas Eve. That was a miracle for my family. By the way, your name is "Miracle." I thought it was kind of funny at first, but now that I think about it, I think it's a really good name. ~.~

It's taken too long. Of course, I can't thank you in any of the long glosses... … but I'll leave you to your good times. I love you as a gift to my family! Happy New Year.

The long message ended with the words, "I love you so much." After reading all the text, there was a calm smile on the face of the miracle of lowering the smartphone.

‘A Christmas miracle……. ’

When serving briquettes not long ago, a miracle told baseball player Kim Dae-gyu. Small steps eventually make a big difference.

And it didn't seem wrong to say. The small heart that wanted to share briquettes eventually caused a miracle. If there were no people with black briquettes, this miracle wouldn't have happened.

‘If so, Heo Hyeong-suk might not be able to walk forever. What would happen to the two sisters if they did? ’

Thanks to that, I thought of a miracle. Maybe what they delivered that day wasn't just briquettes. A warm hope to melt the minds of frozen people. And...... I was really good at embracing this stubbornness.

‘Please don't freeze your heart again. Please live in a warm world. ’

I looked at the miracle lightly.
